About This Home
Welcome to 1578 Morada Place, a soulful and timeless 1928 storybook English Tudor that exquisitely blends historic pedigree with today's luxuries. Located on a classic NE Altadena tree lined street surrounded by architecturally beautiful homes and estates awaits this joyful forever home ready for its next chapter. Updated systems, thoughtful finishes, warm wood flooring and pristine craftsmanship! With four well appointed bedrooms, three baths and a spacious finished basement (that doubles as a moody lounge area, office or wine tasting room) the layout flows effortlessly while still maintaining the gorgeous architectural character and built-ins that have been thoughtfully restored to pay tribute to its original era. The spacious, sun-filled living room is anchored by built-in window seating, custom bookshelves, a stucco fireplace, and dramatic wood beam ceilings. From here, French doors open to a large covered porch overlooking the expansive backyard—perfect for a magical outdoor dining experience and endless family memories! The formal dining room, accessed through restored French doors is both classic and elegant. The chef’s kitchen is an absolute dream overlooking the lush backyard and featuring a custom built oval shaped island, high-end appliances, floating shelving and designer lighting. Two bedrooms and a full bath with romantic finishes complete the main level, while upstairs you'll find two more spacious bedrooms and bathrooms. The upstairs guest bedroom boasts charming built-ins and a classic window bench overlooking the yard below. The primary suite is a true retreat with its own fireplace, built-in shelving, walk-in closet, and a dreamy spa-like ensuite bath with a generous soaking tub and separate glass shower. Rich in architectural history, lovingly restored and located in a picturesque neighborhood backed by the majestic San Gabriel Mountains, this rare Altadena beauty is quite a special find.
