About This Home

As of June 2016

An extraordinary property. Built in 1921 by carpenter Paul Sheldon, this Altadena cottage is surrounded by its own forest. Tended for 30 years by a local permaculturalist, the more than 11,000 square foot lot overflows with plant life, and is visited by hummingbirds and butterflies. With a park on one side and a vacant lot on the other, you will feel a million miles from LA. The 2 bedroom house is in need of some TLC, but has potential to be a gorgeous home.
