61 W Manor St Altadena, CA 91001

Designed by E.P. Janes, this authentic 1924 Janes Cottage and guest house have been masterfully restored to capture their original details and character. With curb appeal out of a fairytale, the impeccable boxwood landscaping, dramatic red-sloped roof and spacious front porch with French doors invite you in. More than 20 windows flood the space with natural light. The ample-sized bedrooms accompany a remodeled bathroom with marble tile, double console sinks, copper plumbing and newer electrical. Charm is around every corner with barrel vault ceilings, archways, hardwood floors, a Batchelder style fireplace and Tudor elements. A designer's dream, high end touches include RH and Circa Lighting fixtures throughout, stainless steel kitchen appliances and Thibaut wallpaper. An Instagram-worthy guest house---which can be used as an income property or in-law suite---sleeps four and features a subway-tiled bathroom, full kitchen with concrete counters, an LG washer/dryer and sliding doors that overlook a sprawling backyard. Two reclaimed-brick patios and mature cacti and bougainvillea offer the ultimate in California living. Bonuses include: sprinklers; security system; newer roof; freshly painted outside; newer central HVAC.
