This charming 1938 2 Bedroom 1.5 bathroom house with bonus family room is located in one the prettiest and most desirable area of Altadena's Presidents neighborhood. In the large, fully landscaped, backyard you will find a studio apartment ADU with high ceilings, skylights, and its own fenced yard (The ADU has been generating nearly $2000 monthly income and will be delivered vacant). The main house is an oasis of privacy, calmness, and peace hidden behind a tall hedge and an incredibly lush front yard. A winding brick path leads from the street to a covered front porch. The house welcomes you to a generous 2 bedroom layout with original oak hardwood floors. The living room and adjoining family room share a two-sided wood burning fireplace that is the focal point of the house, especially during chilly winter evenings. While both the family room and formal dining room open to the nature outside to take full advantage of the warm climate. The large pergola offers an enchanting outdoor dining area all year round. The central air system was recently upgraded to four individual mini split units for better temperature control and efficiency. The main bathroom was renovated a few years ago but the kitchen and most wood windows could benefit from a future remodel. Very quiet and private home on almost 10,000 square foot lot. Gated driveway. Garden shed, workshop, and zen retreat area. No sign on the property. Easy to show on one day notice.
