About This Home
As of May 2023Designed by famed architects Marston & Van Pelt, this stately 1916 French Revival sits on nearly an acre of lush grounds on one of the most prestigious streets in Altadena. Enter the foyer and find a grand, formal living room wrapped in French windows with high ceilings, a wood burning fireplace, and an attached sunroom. Journey through the rest of the home to find the many original architectural details and character, hardwood floors throughout, a lovely formal dining room with a wood burning fireplace, a den wrapped in French doors, and a spacious kitchen with numerous floor-to-ceiling windows that grant you stunning views of the outdoors. Make your way upstairs to find picturesque radius windows lining the staircase, four sizable bedrooms with two spacious converted sleeping porches, and windows throughout offering stunning mountain and treetop views. The exterior is truly remarkable with its countless century-old fruit trees, sprawling verdant gardens, elegant arbor, and beautiful views of the San Gabriel Mountains, all making this property feel like your own private sanctuary. After nearly sixty years of being lovingly cared for by the same family, this once-in-a-lifetime home is ready for its new owners.
