The original 3 bedroom and 2 bathroom home built in 1950 was unfortunately affected by the recent Eaton Canyon Fires leaving a chance for someone with a new vision to create a new home or someone who wants to restore the old vision of the property that once stood here in the beloved community of Altadena. The property is being sold as-is, and the buyer is responsible for conducting their own due diligence regarding future building requirements. This includes consulting with LA County and any applicable agencies to address site clearance, hazardous material removal, and environmental remediation. Prior to the fire, the property had access to all utilities; however, the buyer must independently verify restoration requirements.
