Located in the scenic foothills of Altadena, and within one of the most desirable neighborhoods this expansive lot presents a rare opportunity to build a new vision or restore a cherished one in a beloved community. Previously home to a 4-bedroom, 3-bathroom residence built in 1964, the property was affected by the Eaton Canyon Fire, offering a blank slate for those looking to create something truly special. Set against a stunning natural backdrop, the backyard featured an existing pool and spa, with sunset views over the valley below and views of the mountains above. The two neighboring homes remain intact, preserving the charm and character of the area. This as-is sale requires the buyer to conduct their own due diligence regarding future building requirements, including consultation with LA County and relevant agencies for site clearance, hazardous material removal, and environmental remediation. The property previously had access to all utilities, but the buyer must verify restoration requirements. Please Note: This is a drive-by only listing. Do not enter the property due to current safety protocols.

Your Haven in Altadena. Built by Cleo and Leota Hollenbeck in 1948, this California bungalow is steeped in history with more stories to tell. Original hardwood floors and graceful arches seamlessly connect the light-filled living room to the expansive kitchen, where guests will gather as you effortlessly entertain, aided by double ovens, a large center island, loads of counter space, and seating for the whole crew. Two bedrooms, one with inspiring San Gabriel Mountain views, the other secluded in a sea of green podocarpus, offer privacy from each other and the rest of the home. The bathroom, with custom built-in storage, a deep soaking tub, and fixtures reminiscent of a French cafe, is just one of the thoroughly modern upgrades. Not to be outdone, an east facing sunroom/office/third bedroom steals the show with its wide-open view of the secret treasure of 2994 Bargen Way: the backyard. The heavenly, 7,000+ square foot lot has everything you need to carry your kitchen-party outdoors: A Sweetgum tree with enough shade for the warmest of summer days, majestic succulent gardens, a well-appointed outdoor kitchen, a hard-lined gas firepit for cool nights and a jet-filled heated spa for the perfect end to any day. Rounding out the surprises is a separate laundry room packed with storage, a retractable 10 ft movie screen with a surround sound system that truly duplicates a cinema experience, and an expansive two car garage primed for an ADU or the creative workshop of your dreams. This home has seen many thoughtful owners since Cleo and Leota were Altadena pioneers over 70 years ago. Now it's your turn to take the helm.

A sunsoaked midcentury dream on a broad, palm-lined street, nestled in the foothills of the San Gabriels, this turnkey home was lovingly revived by the owners. They installed all brand-new systems (electrical, plumbing, roof, solar, insulation, water heater, heat pump and zoned climate control, ducting, appliances, and more) including Mother-in-Law unit, while retaining the midcentury modern charm. Freshly restored hardwood stuns throughout the open-plan layout. Vaulted ceilings with a solar-powered retractable skylight let in sunlight and fresh air in the summer. In the winter, a working wood fireplace keeps the chill away. In the kitchen, find flat-panel cupboards above, and stunning scalloped clay tile below -- both original. A new dishwasher and fridge accompany an irreplaceably vintage stove. In the primary bathroom, new terrazzo tile accompanies a new shower. An expansive backyard is shaded by trees, including a mature avacodo. There's plenty of room here for a pool, workspace, or even another living space. The surrounding blocks were untouched by the recent fire, but just to be safe, the home was professionally remediated for soot and ash, with attic insulation entirely replaced. Altadena is already on the rebound, with lots of commercial development humming along on nearby Lincoln Ave, including walkable attractions like Good Neighbor Bar, Home State, Kismet, Stumptown, and Highlight Coffee. Close to the 210 (but not too close), the home provides access to downtown Pasadena in 8 minutes, downtown LA in under a half hour and is located within 2 miles of JPL. You're minutes away from the foothills, where some of the best hiking, biking and camping in the county can be found.
