About This Home

As of September 2018

Simply Enchanting. This must-see 3+2 Spanish style home sits on a quiet street in one of Altadena’s most sought after neighborhoods. Inviting and comfortable with mountain views from the front and city lights from the back.
From the lovely flowers & garden pond to the gleaming hardwood floors & fireplace, you'll want to sit down and enjoy the moment. In the winter, see yourself curled up with a book by the living room fireplace and picture window. In the summer, indulge in the fruit trees and garden.
Wake up and have a luxurious shower in the new master bathroom or a cup of coffee on the cozy balcony. At night, ease away the stress of the day in the spa or have a game night in the downstairs family room.
And if you want privacy, hideaway to the bonus room downstairs or slip through a custom ironwork door to your upstairs tower getaway. There's even a work space in the converted garage or world class hiking trails one block away for when you're feeling ambitious.
This is a storybook home! Make it yours.
