About This Home
As of January 2024Set on a knoll and highlighted by majestic mountain views, this impressive two-story Colonial home is a landmark of Altadena's Country Club neighborhood. Beyond its grand exterior, the home is the perfect combination of elegance and comfort and was designed to be a haven for family and a gathering place for friends and loved-ones. The owner has made numerous recent improvements to the house, and it is truly picture-perfect. The ground floor features gracious formal living and dining rooms, a guest bedroom, and a 3/4 bath. The hub of the home is the large, open kitchen-family room, with french doors leading out to the gorgeous back garden with brick patio and dark-bottomed pool with spa. The finished basement, with wood paneled walls, built-in cabinetry, and a desk area is the perfect kid's
