About This Home
As of September 2018Set on an Altadena Heritage designated block, this genuine Gregory Ain architect-designed home presents a rare opportunity for the true mid-century modern enthusiast! One of only 28 houses built as part of the highly sought-after Park Planned Homes development, this turnkey 3 bedrooms, 2 bath home was designed by Ain in 1947. Remodeled a few years back to restore the home to its original footprint, 2853 Highview offers beautiful light-filled spaces and a feeling of great openness thanks to Ain’s cathedral ceilings and clerestory window design. Fixtures and surfaces have been tastefully updated, and the original slab-foundation flooring is now an elegant polished concrete. Each room includes wall to wall windows with views opening onto private outdoor spaces, giving it a sense of expansiveness not commonly found in more traditional homes. The property features a backyard with a tall privacy fence, a deck surrounding a shady and mature avocado tree, as well as a spacious and private courtyard between the kitchen and garage which are connected by a unique covered walkway that only Ain could have conceived. The street side yard and entryway both feature lush, drought tolerant landscaping complete with automatic drip irrigation and variety of color and textured plants that enhance the natural curb appeal of the home. As an added bonus, the two-car garage has been fully insulated and equipped with a dual heating and A/C wall-mount unit, making it ideal to use as home office.
