Property Description
Set behind stone walls and iron gates on a rare flat half-acre in the foothills, this cherished farmhouse offers a glimpse into another era - and an opportunity to shape the next one. Owned by the same family since 1961, this home has been a place of deep roots - filled with joyous gatherings, inventive tinkering, and everyday life. The owner, now 101, spent decades here building a life, and the imprint of that history still lingers across the wraparound porch, sunlit windows, and pine-shaded patios. Built in 1935, the home's architectural soul remains intact. Inside, you'll find a formal entry with pressed concrete floors and arched doorways that open into gracious living spaces, including a grand living room with high ceilings, tongue-and-groove wood floors, and a Palos Verdes stone fireplace. The kitchen and formal dining room are accompanied by one of the most unforgettable spaces - the vintage bar, complete with wood paneling, plaid carpet, built-in speakers, and bench seating - a true time capsule. With 4 bedrooms and 2.5 baths, the layout offers flexibility across two levels. One bedroom and bath are conveniently located downstairs, while upstairs are the other three bedrooms. The primary includes an additional sunlit room (perfect for a nursery, office, or dressing area) and a balcony overlooking the front yard. The hall bath is a vintage dream - original pink tub, vintage tile, and retro light fixtures included. Outside, is a world of possibility. The property includes a large pool, multiple patios, lush mature landscaping, and a one-car garage that was once a creative workshop - where the owner's husband invented the motion-picture zoom camera mount. Beyond the garage is an open stretch of land - ideal for an ADU, orchard, or garden sanctuary. Located on the border of La Crescenta this home enjoys the best of both worlds: privacy and tranquility in the hills, with quick access to Foothill Blvd, the 210 freeway, and nearby neighborhoods like Montrose, Pasadena, and Glendale. Perched above Los Angeles, nestled in the foothills of the San Gabriel Mountains, Tujunga was once billed as 'the most healthy place in the world,' thanks to its clean air and breezy microclimate. Even today, the atmosphere here feels set apart - bathed in golden light, framed by mountain views, and shaded by old-growth pines. Whether you're looking for a private canvas to create your forever home, a property to restore, or simply space to breathe, this is a rare opportunity.
