    Cherished and thoughtfully cared for by its original owners since 1998, this elegant La Vina home is a testament to quality construction and thoughtful design, coupled with the breathtaking mountain views and serenity that are the hallmarks of beautiful Altadena and the La Vina community. The gentle curve of the entry staircase with vaulted ceilings welcomes one into a formal living room and dining room, through a butler's pantry, opening into the expansive kitchen, breakfast area and family room. One of the best spots in the home is sitting at the kitchen table watching the queen and king palms swaying and framing the mountain view. Conveniently located to the living spaces, both inside and out, is a powder room and a perfect first-floor guest bedroom with en suite bathroom. Upstairs are four more bedrooms, two of which are larger suites (one currently used as the primary suite, the other as a media room) and the other two bedrooms sharing a Jack and Jill bathroom. Direct access to the spacious 3-car garage is provided through an individual first-floor laundry room. Although this scenic gated community with its playground, pool, and walking paths are in the process of rebuilding portions affected by the Eaton Fire, the steady progress continues in La Vina's commitment to full recovery.
