Historic Altadena gem with gated grounds, period charm, and mixed-use zoning. Zoned LCR (Limited Commercial–Residential), this rare property offers the versatility of primarily residential living with the potential for limited, small-scale commercial use—ideal for a home office or a neighborhood-serving business. Set on an expansive 18,744 sq. ft lot, this historic treasure has been lovingly cared for by only two owners over its lifetime. Rich in charm and character, it’s a true sanctuary tucked into the most serene, tree-lined neighborhoods. The park-like grounds feature three mature fruit trees, 100-year-old cacti, and towering shade trees. Brick pavers provide texture and charm throughout the property, while the front yard lawn adds classic curb appeal. The home is fully enclosed with wrought iron fencing, with dual gated entries, both equipped with automatic openers. A vinyl perimeter fence offers added privacy with minimal upkeep. Inside, the single-story home retains its original Craftsman detailing, including built-in curio, wood-beam ceilings, and china cabinets, a brick fireplace, and a sun-drenched sitting room. Hardwood floors run throughout, complemented by distressed reclaimed wood paneling that adds warmth and character. The kitchen features granite countertops and updated conveniences, while a recently installed natural gas forced-air HVAC system, a California basement for additional storage space, and a whole-house water filtration system enhance everyday comfort. A Tesla solar system, installed 14 years ago, is fully paid and transferable, adding energy efficiency and value. This is also a unique multi-property opportunity: two additional homes on the shared driveway easement are available for sale. One offers 804 sq ft of living space on a 16,750 sq ft lot; the other includes 1,140 sq ft on a 14,518 sq ft lot, making this an ideal setup for multi-generational living, investment, or the creation of a private compound. Don’t miss this exceptional offering—a rare blend of heritage, privacy, flexibility, and potential in one of Altadena’s most desirable enclaves.

As a licensed real estate brokerage, Estately has access to the same database professional Realtors use: the Multiple Listing Service (or MLS). That means we can display all the properties listed by other member brokerages of the local Association of Realtors—unless the seller has requested that the listing not be published or marketed online.
The MLS is widely considered to be the most authoritative, up-to-date, accurate, and complete source of real estate for-sale in the USA.
Estately updates this data as quickly as possible and shares as much information with our users as allowed by local rules. Estately can also email you updates when new homes come on the market that match your search, change price, or go under contract.
