Description

Come home to your oasis above the city and immerse yourself in the tranquility of Briggs Terrace, the historic “Balcony of LA.” Nestled in the foothills of the majestic San Gabriel Mountains, this home will fill you with vacation vibes every day in the comfort of your own home. 5901 Canyonside Road has been lovingly cared for and thoughtfully updated, ensuring a seamless transition for its new residents. The well-designed floorplan features three bedrooms and two full baths on the main floor of the home, with an additional room and full bathroom on the lower level. Hardwood floors lead to an exquisite living room with a vaulted ceiling, expansive picture window & generous wall of glass French doors extending the living space onto the veranda. Adorned with a mature grapevine, the deck space offers shade and views of the Verdugo Mountains and the City below.
The kitchen is outfitted with gourmet appliances, including a magnetic induction cooktop, granite countertops, and ample room for both entertaining and intimate family meals. A character brick gas fireplace adds charm to the dining area, while solar-powered skylights fill the space with airy light by day and a starry sky on clear evenings. The primary bedroom suite boasts a spacious walk-in closet and ensuite bathroom with dual sinks and a generous shower. Every window throughout the home features dual glazing and roll-away screens, providing comfort, security, and ample natural light. The lower level presents endless possibilities for versatile living, currently serving as a light-filled art studio with French doors of glass opening to the grounds, but adaptable to your needs as a home office, fourth bedroom, or game room. Additional highlights include a sizable laundry room, ample storage throughout the home, a 2-car garage, and a large workshop with more storage than you can imagine. Completing this truly exceptional home are the gardens and outdoor living areas. The fully fenced yard offers privacy and space for recreation and relaxation, including a stone patio area in the shade of a grand live oak tree, a large flat grassy area, a terraced vegetable garden, and a personal orchard abundant with an impressive variety of fruit trees, from peach and plum to nectarine, apricot, avocado, lemon, orange, kumquat, and grapefruit. Exceptional K-12 National Blue Ribbon and California Gold Ribbon award-winning schools. The mountains are calling... "Welcome Home"!

    "Fairly decent schools, although bullying is still a problem. Not impressed with the special needs educators up here at all. They just like to babysit your kids, not actually help them learn. I had to remove my son (high-functioning autism) from their school district in 9th grade just to make sure he got his diploma. But if your kid is popular, plays sports, or is into drama, the schools are great for those kinds of kids. "
