Description
Calling all nature lovers and historic home aficionados - this eclectic, character-rich 1936 Traditional in Glendale's historic Montecito Park is a delight. Sited back from the sidewalk behind a handsome native garden, and complemented by views of the foothills in the background, this home whispers in a palette of earthy tones that echo its surroundings. A welcoming brick path with its unique navette-shaped center planter draws visitors in, past blooming Saint Catherine's lace to the home's covered front porch, flanked by original wrought iron lattice decorative grilles. Inside, gleaming white oak hardwood floors flow from the entry into a generous living room with decorative fireplace and beamed ceiling. Natural light flows through all spaces here, streaming in through large windows in the living room, formal dining room and kitchen. With its sage green cabinetry, custom-tiled countertops, backsplash and checkerboard floors juxtaposed with stainless steel appliances and accents, the kitchen strikes a perfect retro-modern balance. A sunny laundry room with pantry storage and 3/4 bath just off the kitchen are convenient, and benefit from a side door direct to the driveway...don't miss the tiny milk delivery door, a fun reminder of decades gone by. Three comfortable bedrooms on the west side of the home, one currently used as a den, enjoy flora-filled views of the backyard garden, and access to a second, artfully renovated bath with handsome plaster walls, walk-in shower and custom tile floor. Outside, find spaces to unwind and entertain in the shade in the covered brick patio, or meander in the native garden amongst the Monarchs and Western Bluebirds (they've made their home in this haven four years running!). Finally, behind the finished, conditioned two-car garage, find a large permitted creative bonus space - an additional 455 SF offering a multitude of uses. Ideal for a home office or studio, this would be a dream workspace...with the sliding doors open to the garden, birdsong and scent of sage in the air. Adjacent to all of the charming neighborhood restaurants (Mole at La Cabanita!), parks, wonderful schools and community in the area, plus easy access to freeways and shopping, this home embodies casual elegance and indoor-outdoor lifestyle in one of Glendale's best pockets.

10/10GreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageI just graduated in 2024 and this school felt like torture. Might seem good on paper but once you actually attend it’s terrible. The teachers pick favorites and all the science teachers are awful at their jobs, just making you feel stupid. Overall, would not recommend putting your kid in this school unless you want to make them suicidal.Other Review1y ago - John C. Fremont Elementary School

8/10GreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageOur experience at Fremont has been wonderful. The last few years have been tough with Covid but Fremont has done an excellent job maintaining a sense of community and making sure that kids are able to socialize while everyone still feels safe. My child has learning difficulties and the school has been very helpful and accommodating.Parent Review4y ago - Rosemont Middle School

8/10GreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageDuring my experiences at this educational institution, I have observed multiple scenarios that can complete my review without leaving anything out, as I have enough information to provide an accurate rating. The following observations were made in the 2024-25 school year and continue into the 2025-26 year.Learning is mostly mundane with a lack of depth and emotion, while some teachers excel in attempting and succeeding in their work, most fail at this and their class lacks depth and is unpleasant to most students. The lack of interesting and engaging work is concerning, as that is not helpful towards students or parents.Teaching in my experience is adequate and is one of their strengths. The teachers I was assigned to were highly skilled and efficient in their work. All of my teachers spend time to provide support for their students, as one of my teachers spent a lot of time to help me with my English assignments.Social-emotional support in this school has some decency but is mostly not enough. Though I have not experienced this, many people I know have been emotionally supported to a minimum, or even below the minimum that they should receive.Special education in this school is exceptional, with students with disabilities receiving the support they need. The staff that work in this category know how to their work well and are highly skilled.Safety in this school is inadequate and discrimination is a large problem. Racial slurs and prejudice against the LGBTQ community are a widespread issue. The staff have attempted to provide a safe environment, though people are easily bullied and taken advantage of by the students. Punishments are another large scale issue with students not receiving or not having a harsh enough punishment. I was assaulted by one of the students in my classes and they repeatedly attempted to choke me, I instantly reported him in the office after the period ended, though he never got suspended for assaulting me and had to apologize to me at a minimum. This category is their largest weakness.Family engagement is adequate and they include parents, though I haven't experienced this, I have heard from several of my peers.In conclusion, this educational institution excels in some categories while fails in others. I do not recommend this school to the average person and if I was a parent, would not send my children here.Student Review4mo ago
