2944 Santa Anita Ave, Altadena
Sitting proudly on a verdant, private, corner lot, not far from the hiking trails of the Altadena foothills, and beautifully updated with a thorough commitment to its original period grace, this 1925 storybook Tudor overflows with character and charm.
Elegance and style abound in the dramatic contours of the light-filled living room boasting a two-story vaulted ceiling with wood beam trusses, original oak flooring, handsome stone fireplace, and French doors that beckon to a courtyard with fountain set against the backdrop of the glorious San Gabriels.
The formal dining room with enormous picture window, wood beams, and antique chandelier flows to the artful, spacious, tiled kitchen bordered by the laundry room.
Ideally distanced from the whimsical downstairs bedrooms with built-ins and French doors, up the wrought iron railed stairs, the gorgeously sunlit master suite, showcasing romantic lines, appears to float above the mature treetops.
The character of the interior flows to the exterior from an impressive antique wood door flanked by vintage sconces, past the generous front porch, whimsical side portico leading to a secret passageway to the ample storage basement, down the stone and brick pathways to the garden, patio, and flat entertaining yard, to the picturesque steep-pitched roofline, gated parking, and circular front drive.
A pleasant surprise, the charming studio space floating above the garage dares you to finally complete that passion project.
Surrounded by 10,000 square feet of tranquility, beauty, character, and mountain views, entertaining is a givens, though keeping it all to yourself would be completely understandable!
