Altadena Charming Starter – Santa Rosa Avenue

Altadena New Listing: Altadena is located just North of Pasadena.  Here, buyers are able to find nice, affordable homes.  I have previewed several properties in the $400,00 price range.  All with nice landscaping, new paint, flooring and even came with new appliances.

Last week at the Broker’s Open House, I came across a charming traditional perfect for a first time home buyer.

3067 Santa Rosa Avenue is situated North of Altadena Drive.  I enjoyed driving up Santa Rosa seeing the beautiful trees and the mountain views.  Santa Rosa Avenue is also called the Christmas Tree Lane.  During Christmas, hundreds of holiday lights are put up by the neighbors and association. This event attracts many people to the area.

This Santa Rosa home is in a move-in condition.  Well maintain front yard has a welcoming brick walk way.  Living room is comfortable, bright & airy with fireplace and hardwood floors. There are three bedrooms which are all well size, and a nicely updated bathroom.  The kitchen has also been transformed beautifully with newer cabinets and tiles.

    Set against the serene backdrop of Altadena's foothills, this 6,606 sq ft lot offers a rare opportunity to build anew in a peaceful and established neighborhood. Once home to a charming 4-bedroom, 2-bath residence spanning over 2,000 sq ft, the property is now a blank canvas following the Eaton Canyon Fire. With Phase 1 and Phase 2 of the site cleanup already completed, this lot is primed for its next chapter. Whether you're a builder, investor, or visionary homeowner, the setting offers potential for a fresh start with mountain views and a quiet, community-oriented feel. All previous utility connections existed on-site; however, buyers are advised to verify restoration needs with LA County and relevant agencies. This as-is sale requires buyers to conduct their own due diligence, including matters related to site clearance, hazardous material removal, and environmental remediation. This is a chance to reimagine and rebuild in one of Altadena's most scenic corners--close to nature, yet minutes from city convenience.
