About This Home

As of July 2021

This 1926 abode in the heart of Altadena is as turnkey and low-maintenance as they come. Gleaming hardwood floors, a stained-glass accented entry, and decorative archways harken back to the homes original character. The spacious updated eat-in kitchen, updated baths, and white-brick fireplace give the home a contemporary flair, and a host of upgrades includes a new sewer line, a 200 amp panel, a whole house fan, a Nest smart thermostat, and a tankless water heater. The primary suite features dual closets and opens up to the generous back yard. Drought-tolerant landscaping, fresh turf, and deconstructed granite grace the front and back yards. Copious amounts of storage space in the attic and a bevy of off-street parking free up the potential to use the detached garage for home office or studio. 597 W Crosby St offers quick and easy access to the hiking trails at JPL, the Rose Bowl, Old Town Pasadena, Highlight Coffee, and of course the upcoming HomeState on Lincoln. Proximity to the 210 and all of its nearby interchanges make 597 W Crosby a dream for commuters.
