4010 Canyon Dell Dr Altadena, CA 91001

This striking Mid-Century Modern, designed in 1959 by architect Whitney Smith, FAIA, of the renowned firm Smith & Williams, sits at Millard Canyon's edge, with sweeping views up to the San Gabriel Mountains. It offers the classic features of the best of its style: large walls of glass separated by wood panels, crossed-beamed ceilings extending into sheltering eaves and lattice work, plus a roof line that reflects the mountains beyond. The open floor plan has a center-island kitchen and spacious family/dining room, tranquil living room, two canyon-side bedrooms, and a tastefully remodeled bath with Heath Ceramics tile. Features include many original finishes and trellis work, newly-rebuilt redwood deck, newer ducting for the central heat & air, gated front courtyard and carport. Throughout the property, decks, patios and indoor spaces flow together seamlessly to provide for true California Living. Here is an exceptional example of Post & Beam design in a very private and serene setting.
