1905 N Verdugo Rd, Glendale, CA 91208

Nestled in the heart of the Verdugo Woodlands of North Glendale, this special house was built in 1937 by the Rossall family for Mrs. Rossall, who had always wanted to live in a Spanish, Mediterranean home. The current owners have even retained the blueprints! Original character and charm are abundant with casement windows, hardwood floors, decorative heating grates, cast iron bathtub, cove ceilings and period molding. The front entry begins an easy flow floor plan from the formal living room with a fireplace to a separate dining room with built-ins, a remodeled galley kitchen and laundry room with the spacious bedrooms and remodeled baths on the north wing of the home. There is even a California basement with the perfect place to start a wine cellar. A light-filled sun room has endless possibilities as a home office, workout room, play room or any number of other uses and opens to a large, private patio. The substantial backyard is a real sanctuary with native oak trees, a sycamore and citrus trees—a seedless lemon, a seedless dwarf lime and a Thai lime. There is an abundance of privacy and charm in the backyard that overlooks the Verdugo Wash. The front yard is planted with California natives and other drought-tolerant plants including Matilija Poppy, a Bay tree (yes, leaves can be used for cooking), Rosemary, Echium, Yucca, Agave, Bottlebrush and various cacti. At the end of the long driveway is a two car garage with plenty of additional storage. Conveniently located near both the 134 and the 210, close to Glendale College and all that the Americana shopping district has to offer to the south and the abundant shopping and restaurants in Montrose to the north. Don’t miss this rare opportunity!
