About This Home

As of December 2024

Nestled at the foot of the majestic San Gabriel Mountains in one of Altadena’s most coveted neighborhoods, this meticulously renovated 3-bed + bonus room/den, 2-bath home offers the quintessential combination of indoor and outdoor California living. Just a stone’s throw from the iconic Zorthian Ranch, this 1,809 sf property seamlessly blends contemporary, understated luxury with the natural beauty of its surroundings.

Step inside and you’re greeted by architectural wood accents and an inviting arched alcove that leads to a spacious, light-filled open floor plan. The chef's kitchen, outfitted with natural oak cabinets, muted quartz countertops and Thor appliances, is centered around a large kitchen island with ample room for gathering, prepping and serving.

The backyard is a true oasis and an entertainer’s dream, expertly designed for relaxation and hosting, with multiple spaces for dining, lounging and play. Dive into the large pool, rinse off in the outdoor shower adorned with Palm Springs inspired Zia tile, and enjoy stunning sunsets and mountain views from the raised decking and terraced platforms.

The spacious primary bedroom features a spa-like ensuite bathroom, large walk-in closet and a lounge with direct views and access to the spectacular backyard and all its amenities. Two more generously sized bedrooms and a versatile bonus room/den offer the utmost flexibility for sleep, work and hobbies.

New systems will give you peace of mind for years, including dual-pane windows, updated electrical with a 200-amp panel, new plumbing and a new central HVAC system. Located just minutes from Millard Falls, multiple hiking trails, JPL, and the lively shops and dining of Old Town Pasadena, this home offers the best of urban and suburban living in Altadena.
