About This Home

As of July 2025

Presenting The Palm House, a pristine and original 1947 Western Ranch-Style single story home of brick construction within the La Canada Unified School District. The property has been maintained by the current owners since 1972 (47 Years) with a dedicated commitment as stewards of this home to preserve the architectural design features and the grounds which evoke comparisons with the gardens of nearby Descanso or Huntington. This welcoming 1,219 Sf home is East facing and situated on a parcel of 7,440 Sf. Exterior walls are of a weeping-brick style application, the interior walls are lath and plaster which together provide insulation against heat and cold, sound and moisture. The front yard features varieties of Palm trees that complement the majestic soaring Palms that line both sides of Palm Drive. The well-balanced floor plan has two sections of three rooms: two bedrooms and 1 full bathroom, and the living areas of the living room, dining room and kitchen with separate laundry room. The dining area has two built-in cabinets and a separate 25 Sf enclosed room for general storage or even a small office.
