New England beach house meets California bungalow in this uplifting Altadena compound. Wind your way through a lush front garden of citrus and native plants to the inviting L-shaped porch, where you'll relax and marvel at the mountain views as your worries melt away. Inside the main house, a light-filled living room introduces you to warm, oak wood flooring and classic crown molding throughout. The dining area opens to an expansive kitchen featuring hand-built custom cabinetry, a Wedgewood stove and counter space galore for the chef of the household. Wainscoting and claw-foot tubs bring an elegant charm to both bathrooms, and the finished attic provides ample opportunity for a 4th bedroom or office. Your primary bedroom's French doors lead to a big backyard with multiple areas for outdoor living, dining and play. The partially soundproofed garage has been used as a music / recording studio, screening room and guest house, with a bonus bathroom and upstairs living space, plus dual mini-split A/C. Practical upgrades include tankless water heater, copper & ABS piping and more. Nature lovers will cherish nearby hiking trails, and the property is situated near Lincoln Avenue hot spots like Home State, Stumptown Coffee, Perry's Joint and West Altadena Wine. An ideal haven in a wonderful setting!
