Located along a quiet stretch of Fair Oaks Avenue just south of Loma Alta, 3296 Fair Oaks offers an elevated setting with wide mountain views and a strong connection to the natural surroundings. At approximately 1,500 feet above sea level, the air feels crisp, the skies stretch open, and the rhythm of life slows down. The property is home to mature trees and flowering plants, including cherry, pomegranate, blood orange, lemon, apricot, and peach, along with Plumeria, rosemary, roses, and daffodils. Wildlife is part of the landscape here, with hawks soaring overhead, parrots calling from the trees, and occasional visits from peacocks and owls. A long cobbled paver driveway winds through the lot, offering a welcoming approach and a glimpse into what will be again. With easy access to nearby hiking trails, horse paths, and the natural beauty that defines this part of Altadena, 3296 Fair Oaks Avenue is a peaceful place to build something intentional. This was once the site of a 3 bedroom, 2 bathroom home plus a detached 2 car garage. With Phase 2 debris removal complete, the site is cleared and ready for its next chapter. Currently, Altadena Community Standards allow for a gross structural area of up to 2,897 square feet. This limit does not include an additional allocation for a garage or ADU. The property is being sold as land only.
