This charming brick-front traditional home, built in 1946, has been in the same family for nearly 60 years, and has only had two owners. This special home retains many period details and the elegance of its heritage. Visitors are enchanted by a welcoming California native front garden that is lush and colorful with many specimens attracting hummingbirds and butterflies. The front door opens to an inviting entry and to the right is the generously-sized living room with original paneling on the north wall, a decorative fireplace with substantial brickwork, and a wall of large windows to enjoy the verdant garden and striking mountain views. The living room adjoins the formal dining room which features striking wallpaper depicting a pastoral scene, thought to be original to the home. Beyond the dining room is the efficient galley kitchen with a period appropriate O'Keefe & Merritt stove included in the sale. At the rear of the kitchen is a delightful breakfast nook with bay window overlooking the backyard, and a laundry room with storage. There is a light and bright family room with access to the backyard, likely a porch enclosed by the previous owner, open to a cozy convertible den with closet, original built-ins, paneling, and an adjacent 3/4 bath. The two bedrooms are both substantial in scale and are serviced by a hall bath. The primary bedroom, like the living room, has a wall of windows overlooking the front garden and allowing for ample natural light; the primary bedroom is complete with a vanity area and direct access to the hall bath. A detached 2-car garage, trellised patio for alfresco dining, and a large backyard provide endless possibilities for future development. This enchanting house with abundant natural light, a sensible floor plan, and an outstanding Altadena location is the type of home you just fall in love with.
