About This Lot

2970 Emerson Way is a build-ready 7502 square foot parcel, located at TRACT NO 7074 on Altadena Map NO 3. Previously, the lot held a 2 bedroom, 1 bathroom residence with a detached fully permitted and converted garage and a separate free standing structure used as an office. Livable square footage was approximately 1400 square feet and an extra 200 square feet for the bonus office structure. In total there were 3 structures on the property. This lot, in desirable Altadena is located on Emerson Way, a short, quiet street in what was always a peaceful and friendly neighborhood with a view of the San Gabriel Mountains. Altadena and LA County are offering easy-to-apply and expedited approval for building plans, especially for like-for-like builds (same square footage/similar layout). Whether you're an investor, builder, or homeowner with a dream, this blank slate is primed for development. Sellers are willing to share completed plans for renovations that they had completed before the fires. Both Phase 1 and Phase 2 have been completed, including, environmental clearance with a final certificate of completion (COC) of the property. The site qualifies under California SB9 legislation to potentially support 2 Primary Dwellings & 2 ADU's, offering a tremendous opportunity for rental income, multi-generational living or resale of 2 separate units. The property is owned free and clear, no loan on Title, allowing for a smooth and efficient closing process . Buyers should independently verify all zoning, permitting and rebuilding requirements with Los Angeles County and verify status of utilities with local providers. Buyers are responsible for conducting their own investigations to satisfy themselves regarding future development, ability to add units, required lot size, community and neighborhood designation, zoning and taxes. PLEASE REFER TO 3 DOCUMENTS IN THE DOCS FOLDER OF THE MLS especially the FHSZ which clearly states that this property is NOT in a high fire hazardous zone. SELLER IS WILLING TO OFFER AN EXTENDED ESCROW, CASE BY CASE, WITH STEP/PHASE PAYMENTS. Seller has completed and approved plans for an extension to the original house for a screened in porch. Drive by only. Please do NOT walk on the Lot.
