Property Description

Leafy Carob trees, native sages and oaks introduce this 1925 English Cottage built by famed early Altadena developer E.P. Janes. Exuding historic charm from the street, with a lovely landscaped front yard, this home captivates. Storybook cottage hallmarks abound here: trowel swept stucco walls, high pitched roof with rolled eaves and graceful arched covered entry vestibule -- this property retains many special original features. Inside, original hardwood floors and creamy plaster walls complement the soaring barrel vaulted ceiling and decorative Claycraft surround fireplace and hearth. Windows and arches are plentiful, with centerpiece 32-pane east facing arched window in the living room, and a grand Tudor arch connecting living and formal dining rooms. Dining room and all 3 bedrooms feature the soft curves of coved ceilings and rounded original wood molding found throughout the home. Kitchen is sunny and welcoming, with butcher block countertops, built-in detail over O'Keefe and Merritt stove, and custom built-in breakfast nook. An updated full bath with separate soaking tub and shower feels spa-like with warm wood and light marble. Finally, the sunroom is sure to be a favorite spot to enjoy garden views or a cup of tea. Outdoor spaces here provide room to play and entertain, with a sizable 2-car garage offering potential for a studio or ADU. Enhanced by beautiful mountain views, its setting in historic Janes Village and prime location near trails, coffee shops and much more, this home offers Altadena lifestyle at its best.
