Nestled in the Foothills of the San Gabriel Mountains, in the center of Montrose, sits this charming home embodying the essence of a cottage aesthetic by blending seamlessly with its gorgeous natural surroundings. The enchanting garden greets you to the property; a true masterpiece of California native plants, carefully curated over the last 40 years to thrive in the local climate. Cross the wooden bridge and follow the rock trail through the garden to the home. On your way, you'll pass by beautiful sunflowers, a sea of California Blue Bells, citrus trees, various California Poppies, a gorgeous mature Manzanita and endless more plants and flowers that attract birds, butterflies, lizards and other wildlife. Arriving to the house, the exterior is a picturesque blend of wood and brick. The welcoming front-porch invites you to sit and enjoy the tranquil views of the foothills, along with the garden. As you step inside, you're greeted by immediate charm. The brick fireplace serves as the focal point of the living room, and brings even more character and warmth to the home. The bathroom maintains its original red vintage tiles, and the kitchen is modest but mighty. The right amount of storage, working space and flow for any chef. With the dining room opening to the kitchen, the room is a perfect entertaining space. It has gorgeous wainscoting like the living room, and the most perfect picture window seat looking out to the garden. All three bedrooms get bathed in bright afternoon sun from the exterior glass doors leading to a large deck and back yard full of mature oak trees, a lemon tree and a blood orange tree. This house is a seamless blend of comfort, space, and natural beauty, making it a true sanctuary in the Foothills of California. 20 minutes from LA and all the city's attractions, this house gives you easy access while also providing a tranquil retreat. Moments from the shops and restaurants of Montrose Village; the Crescenta Valley Park and Dog Park; Burbank Airport, Downtown LA and Hollywood and much more. Blue Ribbon school district.

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listed by other member brokerages of the local Association of Realtors—unless the seller has requested that the listing not be published or marketed online.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.
