About this House
UPDATE (FEB. 19, 2025): For those who have:
Expressed an interest in leasing our Altadena house;
Requested a tour or more information;
Toured the home;
Completed an Application,
We want to sincerely THANK YOU for your interest. This note is to update you regarding issues of timing and the status of the property.
Last week, our tenants vacated the property and granted us access immediately after their move-out. We used that opportunity to show the property to a small number of qualified applicants who we had previously interviewed. Even though the air quality inside the house seemed fine, my husband became ill with a minor cold - possibly from residual ash. Spending time in the home may have contributed to his "cold" and so, in an abundance of caution, we have decided not to show it again until Remediation of the property is completed.
We recently received a proposal for a Post-Eaton-Fire Remediation of the property, and have submitted it to our Insurer, the California Fair Plan, for approval. We now must wait for Adjuster Approval of the work plan before we proceed with the Remediation. We do not plan on showing the property again until after it has been fully Remediated. We are sorry for any inconvenience this delay may have caused, and do thank you for your patience and understanding. As we learn more about the timing and completion of the Remediation, we will post it on this page.
UPDATE (FEB.1, 2025): First, we would like to thank you for your interest in our home and express our appreciation for your patience. We have received applications and inquiries from many qualified neighbors. We would like to begin showing the property as soon as possible but are facing several hurdles before we are able to do so.
We recently had an inspection by an environmental clean-up company and are awaiting their bid. The main concern is our attic, as with many homes which were close to the fires. Ash accumulated through the air vents and will need to be remediated before we will be able to conduct tours with prospective tenants. We recently put in new double pane windows, which may have helped prevent ash accumulation.
We hope to move as quickly as we can. Our strong preference is to lease to an Altadena neighbor who lost their home in the fire. Our hearts break for those in this unfortunate dilemma. Some of the beautiful homes owned by applicants and lost to the fire are ones we remember seeing when winding through adjacent neighborhoods on our way to Fox's for breakfast.
We will be providing updates as we learn more.
PROPERTY DETAIL:
Located on a quiet tree-lined street in Altadena, this 3 bedroom 2 bath vintage "Cape Cod" style single-story Bungalow was custom built in 1945, but has been updated to modern between 2015 & 2024.
Improvements have included a new roof and double pane windows added for energy efficiency. In addition to systems updates (plumbing, electrical, sprinklers & HVAC) - renovations included a well thought out kitchen, a petite but lovely marble ensuite primary bathroom and a renovated secondary bathroom. This home has plenty of built-in storage and abundant character details.
LOCATION:
This home is situated on a large (~10,000 sf) bi-level lot, on a tree-lined street with MOUNTAIN VIEWS. The neighborhood is walkable and convenient to Eaton Canyon hiking, The Metro, Cal Tech, Old Town Pasadena shopping, dining & amenities. We hope you will love it here!
Easy commute to LA, Hollywood, Glendale, Burbank & other employment centers. Or work from home if this is an option for you.
INSIDE:
A spacious, light-filled LIVING ROOM with bay window & wood-burning fireplace. Note: We now REQUIRE that any new Tenants refrain from using the fireplace, in light of the recent FIRE DEVASTATION in the Eaton Canyon area. We appreciate your cooperation.
OPEN CONCEPT: As you enter the living room, which adjoins DINING ROOM & FAMILY ROOM, you can see straight through the house to the backyard.
Original 80 year old OAK HARDWOOD FLOORS throughout (except kitchen/baths).
A large KITCHEN, which has been thoughtfully upgraded with engineered hardwood floors, premium built-in appliances, including counter-depth stainless steel refrigerator, 5 burner GE Cafe Series gas double oven with griddle & convection, quiet Bosch dishwasher with custom cabinetry panel, custom soft-close maple cabinetry with full extension pull-outs, roomy drawers, marble countertops, farm sink, subway tile backsplash & pantry. Enjoy your coffee or tea in the sunny corner BREAKFAST NOOK.
The FAMILY ROOM (or could be a DEN or OFFICE) is bright, with patio access & triple windows overlooking and leading to spacious, fully fenced backyard, with raised vegetable garden beds, fruit trees, succulents, lavender, camellias, bougainvillea & climbing roses. Green thumbs welcome!
A restful spa-like ensuite PRIMARY BATHROOM with marble walk-in shower and versatile lighting. Also includes thoughtful storage, including built-in chargers, niches & a "triple" built-in medicine cabinet. Two transom windows assure great natural lighting for applying your makeup or getting that perfect shave. Upgraded GUEST or SECONDARY BATHROOM, renovated in 2021.
The home is offered UNFURNISHED. Furniture pictured belonged to previous tenants
Extra-wide double detached GARAGE with epoxy flooring contains a separate laundry room with modern washer & dryer (circa 2024). This garage also has a BONUS ROOM - perfect for your office, hobbies or a retreat.
PARKING: You will be able to easily park 2 vehicles in the garage and more in the generous driveway.
Important Note: DUE TO THE EATON CANYON FIRES, WE ARE ANTICIPATING an overwhelming response to our Rental Listing. Please be aware of the following:
We (the owners) will be scheduling a post-Eaton Fire Remediation and Full House Cleaning as soon as the property is accessible. Private Tours will be scheduled after that date.
Owner pays for trash & gardening service, and for Culligan Water softening.
Tenant pays for any other utilities (gas, electric, water, cable etc.)
One Year Lease Required
Renter's Insurance Required
Pets: Well behaved pets may be considered, subject to a (Refundable) Security Deposit, monthly Pet Fee & MANDATORY pet liability insurance.
Plentiful parking in garage & driveway.
NO SMOKING. Thank you.
