About This Home
As of April 2026Presenting a preserved yet updated mid-century ranch that exemplifies the spirit of elevated, unpretentious and unspoiled Altadena living. This rare flag lot provides over 20,000 square feet of privacy and tranquility, perched amidst majestic trees and sprawling lawns. With sweeping views to the Pacific, and nestled against the backdrop of the San Gabriels, the single-story four bedroom, three bath home sits squarely mid-lot, harmoniously pulling nature inside through walls of windows, while inviting you outdoors via multiple access points. The sun-drenched dining room opens to a vine-covered pergola, perfect for midday shade and evening meals alike, while a wood-paneled living room with vaulted beamed ceiling and stacked stone fireplace showcase the home's original 1950s rustic character. An updated kitchen accesses a breakfast nook and cozy sunroom, and includes a Bertazzoni stove, tiled countertop and brass hardware on original cabinetry. The large bright and airy primary suite showcases the rear yard via wall-to-wall French doors and boasts an updated en suite bath with lush garden views from a deep freestanding tub, a heated towel rack, dual vanity with brass fixtures and zellige tiled walls. The original bedroom wing features another updated bath and three bedrooms with ample space, light and warmth.The ambling grounds make this property truly exceptional and rare...plus the pond, play house, vegetable garden, and swings provide a priceless backdrop for peace and quiet at home.
