Perched on a gentle knoll, this classic traditional home sits on an expansive 13,723 sq ft lot, surrounded by mature trees that create a sense of privacy and timeless curb appeal.
Offering 1,878 sq ft of living space, the home features 3 bedrooms and 1¾ baths, filled with pride of ownership, character, and charm throughout.
A brick pathway leads to a welcoming formal entry, opening into a spacious living room with high open-beam ceilings, a mantled brick fireplace, hardwood flooring, recessed lighting, and French doors that flow seamlessly to a covered patio—perfect for indoor-outdoor living.
The adjacent formal dining room is generously sized, also featuring hardwood floors and French doors that open to the patio, making it ideal for entertaining.
The bright, updated kitchen offers built-ins, slate flooring, custom ceramic tile, and a walk-in pantry with access to a hidden utility basement. A direct door to the patio adds ease for gatherings and everyday living.
Two of the three bedrooms feature hardwood flooring and doors that open to outdoor decking, while two bedrooms include updated attached baths for added comfort and flexibility.
Additional interior highlights include central air and heat, a built-in sound system, custom bookcases and shelving, original vintage hardware, recessed lighting, ceiling fans, custom blinds, a cedar-lined closet, a separate laundry room, electric wrought iron driveway gate and more.
The backyard is a true retreat, where natural rock formations, boulders, and mature landscaping create a peaceful, park-like setting. Meandering pathways lead to six fruit trees, a tranquil fountain, and an above-ground spa—inviting moments of relaxation and connection with nature.
An extra long, custom stamped concrete gated driveway leads to a detached finished garage with built-in storage. Attached is a finished 13’ x 15’ bonus room—ideal as a home office, art studio, or workshop—with excellent potential for an ADU.
Additional features include rare RV/boat parking access and ample space for multiple vehicles.
This very special home captures the very best of life in Altadena.
