Nestled on a lush and idyllic tree-lined street north of very desirable New York Drive in one of Altadena’s most coveted neighborhoods is this 1941 Traditional with a detached guest house at the door step of the exquisite Eaton Canyon Nature Reserve. Picturesque and photogenic, the home is surrounded by the majestic San Gabriel Mountains, which are strikingly visible from front and backyards.
Beloved for 30 years, this timeless beauty with original wood floors, two fireplaces, double hung windows, moldings and graceful archways welcome visitors with a warm embrace from a bygone era. Beyond the verdant drought tolerant front yard is the living room with a fireplace and a grand picture window that bathes the home in natural light. Open and airy, the dining room is a feast for the senses featuring intricate moldings and lovely windows that gaze upon the front garden.
Accentuating the thoughtfully updated kitchen is an irresistibly charming breakfast nook framed by vintage windows and original wainscoting. Off the living room is the first bedroom with built-ins and a versatile floor plan that could easily repurpose the space into a home office or relaxing den. Through the hallway is the second bedroom with a skylight and an attached bath, a third bedroom with direct access to the yard, a full guest bath and the entrance to the primary bedroom wingyes, truly a wing of its own.
Generously sized at 560 sq ft, this beautifully illuminated sanctuary with an en-suite bath has an 18′ beamed and vaulted ceiling, fireplace and a seating area framed by a wall of French doors and sidelights. The whimsical vintage 1990s primary bath adds a touch of charm to the space. At the end of the long gated driveway with room for 4-cars is a detached guesthouse with ample built-in storage, a kitchen, bedroom, full bathroom and a private laundry room with storage. Other updates completed with permits in 2017 include a new roof, 200-amp electric upgrade and owned solar panels that will be transferred to the new lucky owners.
Minutes to Eaton Canyon hiking trails, Christmas Tree Lane, farmers markets and world class shopping and dining in Old Town Pasadena, this splendid beauty eagerly awaits the arrival of her next adoring guardians.
