About This Home

As of July 2024

Spanish-style bungalow with lovely gardens! Built in 1923, this home boasts a classic Spanish clay tile roof, wide front porch, covered entry with flattened arches and 3-light solid wood front door with special forged iron hardware. Framed by a gracious Crape Myrtle tree, the entry is flanked by a sculptural fan palm to the north, plus philodendron to the south and lush blooming acanthus. Inside find espresso toned wood floors and an open concept living and dining room filled with natural light. Dining flows into the kitchen with stone countertops, custom cabinetry, breakfast nook with bench seating and stainless steel appliances. Just off the kitchen are a convenient service porch/mudroom and laundry room with access to the backyard. Bedrooms are nicely situated on the north side of the home, offering quiet calm and nicely sized closets. Primary bedroom enjoys an en-suite full bath, with the second full bath located in the hallway adjacent to a convenient linen closet. Outside, this property offers so much opportunity for quiet enjoyment and entertaining: the large backyard patio, festooned with cafe lights and surrounded by blooming roses and succulents, enjoys quick access to the adjacent finished garage and a bonus storage or workroom structure. Just beyond lies a very private grassy lawn framed by fruit trees including fig, stone fruit, prolific citrus, as well as iris and rose -- the backyard here is sublime. With proximity to trails, the Hahamongna watershed preserve, all of the new restaurants on Lincoln Avenue and Mariposa Junction, this is a home to love and enjoy in beautiful Altadena.
