SOLD BEFORE PROCESSING... This storybook English Cottage Revival is filled with old world charm, original architectural details, and yet it is modernized for today’s living!
As you walk up the winding brick pathway, you are greeted by your very own English garden. Stepping up to the covered porch you enter through the bright cottage front door into the spacious formal living room with original hardwood floors, high coved ceiling, crown moulding, and a traditional 1940's brick fireplace. And for those who love to entertain, there is an elegant formal dining room appointed with a crystal chandelier and original wainscoting.
In 2012 the kitchen under went a comprehensive remodel, and in keeping with the style of the home, the owner selected custom shaker cabinets, a clay farmhouse sink, leaf green glazed tile for the counters and oven backsplash, Sub Zero refrigerator with matching cabinet panel, Miele dishwasher also with matching cabinet panel, Viking Stove with custom vent hood, recessed lighting, and a quaint breakfast nook that still has the original 1940's milk delivery door. There are also 2 bedrooms, 1 bath with original apricot and burgundy tile, and lastly a light and bright den/office that overlooks the backyard gardens with a flagstone fireplace and built-in book shelves. The den/office also has a closet, therefore it could be used as a third bedroom if needed.
Other home updates include newer dual paned windows, refinished original hardwood floors, copper plumbing, electrical panel replaced, central air and heat, tankless water heater, copper gutters, and professionally landscaped front and back gardens.
This wonderful home is located in Sparr Heights, which is often referred to as Mayberry, the fictional town in the 1960's Andy Griffith Show. The neighborhood is very walkable with lots of local amenities to visit and explore, including many whimsical shops, a variety of culinary experiences, a Sunday farmer's market, Trader Joes, Montrose Park, Descanso Gardens, and lots of hiking/biking trails. Award winning schools too... Fremont Elementary, Rosemont Middle School, and Crescenta Valley High School.
