Sitting proudly on a verdant, private lot, not far from the hiking trails of the Altadena foothills with a thorough commitment to its original period of grace, this 1925 Spanish style home overflows with character and charm. The possibilities are endless. With well-proportioned rooms and oak floors throughout, this house features a magnificent living room with a vaulted beamed ceiling, an exceptional fireplace with vintage arts and crafts period 1920's Batchelder tiles from the Mayan Revival period and grand staircase. The main level also includes a formal dining room and den with French doors leading to a back patio area. The kitchen, breakfast room, maid quarters and bathroom are awaiting a designer's eye and a craftsman's touch to bring them back to their original glory. The upper level has three large bedrooms and a full bathroom with original tile. The expansive backyard is a private oasis that is a delight to the senses with a gracious Australian Flame Tree, Elm Tree, Crape Myrtle, extensive flower gardens, separate fenced patio, and a sparkling pool. The 2 car garage was converted and not permitted and not included in the square footage to a work space (approx. 1211 square feet) which is adjacent to another workshop area with built-in storage. This graceful property, which has been the cherished home to the current family for over 60 years, has an abundance of original details, elegance, privacy, and a splendid flow between the indoor and outdoor spaces. It makes it a perfect for place for entertaining and tranquil relaxation. Ideally located a short distance to hiking trails and minutes from local shops and eateries. This elegant property dares you to finally complete that passion project you've been looking for, surrounded by 13,000 square feet of tranquility, beauty, character, and mountain views. The possibilities abound restoring this elegant treasure and making it your home.
