Set in the tranquil foothills of La Crescenta, this 1947 Traditional offers thoughtful flow, updated functionality, and timeless charm. A west-facing living room with fireplace and window nook opens to the formal dining room, which leads to a vaulted, step-down family room with a second fireplace, wet bar, and French doors to a private backyard. The beautifully updated galley kitchen features a street-facing breakfast nook, and adjacent laundry/mud room includes new cabinetry, a utility sink, and access to the driveway. All three bedrooms are tucked in one wing - two share a hall bath, while the third enjoys an en-suite and yard access. Refinished hardwood floors run throughout. Out back, a covered patio, built-in barbecue, mature landscaping, and a lemon tree offer a quiet space to relax or entertain. A long driveway leads to an oversized, insulated garage with a separate workshop and potential for ADU conversion. Located in an award-winning school district, this charming home is moments from the quaint shopping and dining of vibrant Montrose and a short drive to La Canada, Pasadena, and DTLA offering the ease of suburban living with city convenience close at hand. Outdoor enthusiasts will appreciate the proximity to scenic hiking trails, including Deukmejian Wilderness Park and the breathtaking Angeles Crest trails, with endless opportunities to explore nature right in your backyard.
