Property Description
This beautifully updated California Bungalow in West Altadena blends timeless charm with modern comfort. Sited back from the street with a contemporary horizontal plank wood fence, the property enjoys mountain views from the grassy front yard. Classic 1924 Craftsman architecture is unspoiled here: the gently-pitched roof with shed dormer window, symmetrical facade and covered front porch with square columns and brick pedestals. Featuring three bedrooms and one bathroom, the home showcases original character details like wood-framed casement windows and elegant double French front doors. Boasting fresh interior paint, newly laid floors (Spring 2025), and updated systems, this home is move-in-ready. The remodeled kitchen includes newer shaker cabinetry, granite countertops and a just-installed stainless steel dishwasher. A fresh roof (June 2025) and HVAC system add to the home’s overall value and efficiency. Enjoy the spacious backyard with mature fruit trees (lemon and nectarine, plus pomegranate in the front yard!) and a covered patio with a ceiling fan, a peaceful spot for morning coffee and ideal for open-air entertaining. A detached bonus room behind the garage offers flexible space for an office, studio, or storage. Located on a quiet, tree-lined street in one of Altadena’s most charming and established neighborhoods – close to favorite taco spots, coffee roasters, Good Neighbor Bar, the just-renovated Loma Alta Park and soon to reopen Bob Lucas Library – this home is a rare find.
