About This Home

Presenting a unique opportunity to restore this partially damaged Altadena home designed by Louis Du Puget Millar and built by Weldon F. Heald for his mother back in 1939. While the exterior of the home is mostly still intact, the interior has been taken down to its wood framing and Kiltzed. It now awaits its next owner to lovingly restore it to its original glory. The covered porch welcomes you to the front entry, a spacious living room with fireplace, and a dining room with built-ins. A kitchen with a breakfast nook separates the home from the master bedroom located in the back of the home. Two other bedrooms are located on the other side of the home and separated by a full bath. A covered and screened patio provides access to the outdoor backyard and a 2-car garage and storage room, which is a candidate for an Accessory Dwelling Unit (ADU). Don't miss this unique and rare opportunity to restore this home in a fraction of the time it would take a rebuild from scratch.
