This beautifully updated Cape Cod pairs timeless architectural character with light-filled interiors and exceptional indoor-outdoor living. Set amidst mature landscaping, the home welcomes you with a columned entry, divided-light windows and a fresh, tailored exterior.Extensively remodeled and expanded in 2006, the home was taken down to the studs and reimagined for modern living, including new plumbing and electrical systems and a significantly expanded floor plan. Multiple sets of French doors bring natural light throughout the main level and create an effortless connection to covered patios and the private, landscaped rear yard. At the heart of the home, the spacious kitchen with center island and breakfast area opens to a generous family room, creating an inviting gathering space for everyday living and entertaining.Thoughtful architectural details continue throughout, complemented by French white oak floors. Upstairs, the spacious primary suite features a fireplace, soaking tub, walk-in closet and dressing area. Three additional bedrooms, a full bath and a separate laundry room with ample storage complete the second floor.Recent updates include new premium kitchen appliances, including a Wolf range, a new washer and dryer, two new HVAC systems, and fresh interior and exterior paint. An oversized, finished detached two-car garage offers exceptional flexibility for recreation, entertaining or creative use, with generous attic storage above.Represented by HomeShootHome, the property has appeared in numerous commercials, TV series and feature films over the years and may offer future opportunities for location income. With its timeless architecture, established landscaping and extensive improvements, the home offers a tranquil retreat with inviting spaces to relax and unwind, complemented by north-facing views of the San Gabriel Mountains.
