Set on a over 10,000 sq. ft. lot, the setting is wonderfully peaceful, located in the most sought after neighborhoods in La Crescenta.Designed for the creative soul, this is not a home of uniform finishes or predictable design. It is a space for those who value light, texture, and authenticity -- where architecture, landscape, and imagination meet.A rare foothill offering for the individual who understands that true luxury lies in uniqueness and connection. The land simply flows into nature, where boundaries soften and the outdoors become part of daily life.Features include in 2024 custom rain gutters, replaced authentic clay tile $97,000 roof, done by Shea Roofing, termite done in November of 2023 Blair's Termite and new split HVAC units in both homes.The front adobe is a cozy home with a relaxing front porch, wood beam ceilings, Saltillo tile floors, original doors, and a tiled bath--details that give the home its unmistakable foothill ambiance. Beyond that, the back guest house opens into an inviting retreat featuring a decorative fireplace, sleeping area, galley kitchen, and a comfortable living space framed by extra-large windows. With its private entrance and private yard, it's ideal for in-law living, guest accommodations, students, or rental potential--offering more than 'extra space,' but true independence.And because beauty is nothing without peace of mind, the home has been thoughtfully updated--so you can enjoy the character with confidence--while still relishing the serenity of a place where the land flows into the canyon.
