First time on the market in 23 years! This secluded, quiet home borders the Angeles National Forest with direct access to nature, hiking, and riding trails, yet is just minutes from downtown La Canada and major freeways, offering the perfect blend of mountain serenity and city convenience. Tastefully updated and well-maintained, this 4-bedroom, 3-bathroom home features refinished hardwood floors that extend throughout most of the home. There is a formal entry and spacious living room with a wood-burning fireplace that opens to the dining room. Both rooms have high ceilings and are filled with natural light from sliding glass doors that lead to water-efficient gardens, a patio, and a small waterfall--ideal for outdoor entertaining. The remodeled kitchen overlooks the rear yard and includes stainless steel appliances, a breakfast bar, dining nook, built-in desk, tile flooring, a walk-in pantry/laundry room, and direct access to the garage with a workshop, shelving, attic storage, and wired for Tesla charger. The main level also offers a cozy den with recessed lighting, wet bar, and high-efficiency wood stove to help heat the home, along with the 4th bedroom/home office and a nearby 3/4 bath via a short hallway for privacy. Upstairs, you will find a spacious primary suite with a walk-in closet and a newly remodeled bath. There are two additional bedrooms, a full bath with dual sinks, and a laundry closet with ample storage. The upstairs bedrooms overlook Angeles Crest Estates and offer a distant peekaboo view of the Southern California coastline, including Palos Verdes and Catalina. The rear yard is nestled against the natural amphitheater of the Angeles National Forest with a seasonal stream. It includes a large grassy area, a patio with a retractable awning, a chicken coop, and a garden with automated irrigation to grow healthy vegetables. The yard is filled with native wildflowers, various plants, and productive fruit trees, including avocado, kumquat, orange, lime, grapefruit, pear, and plum. The home is energy-efficient with dual-pane windows and doors, attic/wall insulation, passive solar design, south-facing orientation, and a GAF Cool Roof with a transferable lifetime warranty, all of which help lower energy bills. With fresh paint and carpet, a newer driveway, and the award-winning La Canada school district, this move-in-ready home is a rare find you'll love for years to come! Schedule a Private Showing
