Welcome to this incredibly maintained and modernized 1928 English Tudor Revival (an original E.A. Daniell design). Filled with the elegance and grace of a bygone era, this delightful property is centrally nestled in the heart of Altadena offers endless charm, a guesthouse and resort-like backyard. Striking the perfect balance between its original architectural character and its many modern upgrades, this 5 bed/3 bath home makes a great first impression with a classic curved catslide roof, hand-hewn braced-bent porch, a newly rebuilt clinker-brick chimney, and winding brick pathway. The quaint details of the porch greet you to a light filled living room with a classic arroyo stone fireplace, original casement windows and a bank of built-ins. The original hardwoods are mirrored by exposed beams and historical details throughout while the ample dining room features corner built-ins and original French doors that lead to a quaint patio. An updated kitchen with stainless appliances, tile backsplash and stunning copper farm sink inspires the home chef while the adjacent powder room and laundry area make it highly functional. The ground floor includes two large bedrooms, an updated full bath and a massive family room designed for gathering. Upstairs lies another amazingly updated bathroom with soaking tub and walk in shower along with three bedrooms built with assignment flexibility in mind and a balcony to enjoy lazy mornings and those mountain views. The resort like backyard features multiple seating and dining areas along with landscape lighting and brick hardscape that surrounds the pool and leads to a fully equipped 361sf ADU conversion with its own kitchenette and 3/4 bath. Mechanical updates include owned solar panels, full copper plumbing, new sewer lateral, modern HVAC and Mini-splits, foundation bolting and more. Termite work and Pre-Inspection findings have been completed. Ideally situated on a quiet street, minutes to attractions like the Eaton Canyon hiking trail, Farnsworth Park, Christmas Tree Lane and the East Washington shopping district and modern grocery stores.
