About This Home
As of June 2025Your Haven in Altadena. Located in a wonderfully preserved pocket, the homes on Bargen Way as well as most of the surrounding streets, were largely unscathed during the January Eaton Fire. Under the safety of what some refer to as the JPL protection zone, this California bungalow, built by Cleo and Leota Hollenbeck in 1948, is steeped in history with more stories to tell. Original hardwood floors and graceful arches seamlessly connect the light-filled living room to the expansive kitchen, where guests will gather as you effortlessly entertain, aided by double ovens, a large center island, loads of counter space, and seating for the whole crew. Two bedrooms, one with inspiring San Gabriel Mountain views, the other secluded in a sea of green podocarpus, offer privacy from each other and the rest of the home. The bathroom, with custom built-in storage, a deep soaking tub, and fixtures reminiscent of a French cafe, is just one of the thoroughly modern upgrades. Not to be outdone, an east facing sunroom/office/third bedroom steals the show with its wide-open view of the secret treasure of 2994 Bargen Way: the backyard. The heavenly, 7,000+ square foot lot has everything you need to carry your kitchen-party outdoors: A Sweetgum tree with enough shade for the warmest of summer days, majestic succulent gardens, a well-appointed outdoor kitchen, a hard-lined gas firepit for cool nights and a jet-filled heated spa for the perfect end to any day. Rounding out the surprises is a separate laundry room packed with storage, a retractable 10 ft movie screen with a surround sound system that truly duplicates a cinema experience, and an expansive two car garage primed for an ADU or the creative workshop of your dreams. This home has seen many thoughtful owners since Cleo and Leota were Altadena pioneers over 70 years ago. Now it's your turn to take the helm.
