Property Description

Welcome home to 2182 Grand Oaks Avenue! On the rim of Eaton Canyon, anchored by river rocks and two valley oak trees with views of the gorgeous San Gabriel Mountains, this meticulously renovated home with no detail spared, is a rare Altadena offering. A special home like this located in such a desirable neighborhood comes on the market just once in a blue moon. This 1941 single story three bedroom home has retained many of its beloved original details, including the freshly refinished original oak floors, wainscoting, crown molding and original doors. This is a pride of ownership home that has a fully renovated eat-in chef's kitchen just off the formal dining room, with high-end stainless steel appliances, thoughtful built-ins and storage options and a beautiful corner banquette and table, equally perfect for enjoying meals and as a homework station. The spacious primary bedroom boasts a walk-in closet, French door, charming wood shutters and views out to the lovely backyard. Other clever updates include a full bath with dual vanity and separate shower, a renovated 3/4 bath, a newer HVAC system, whole house fan, new interior and exterior paint, galvanized gutters and downspouts and a driveway gate. The list of improvements continues as the owners spared no cost or consideration. Professionally designed and landscaped, the yard is brimming with life and whimsy, including a picket fence, squirrel, critter and neighbor gate, all custom built. California native plants mixed with lime, tangelo, navel orange and fig trees abound. The screened porch, overlooking the backyard's live oak tree, provides a haven for daily relaxation and entertainment. To the rear of the yard is a 2 car detached garage and Tuff Shed that has been wired for electricity and could be used as a workshop, a yoga space or for more storage. Just a stone's throw from Eaton Canyon Nature Center, trailheads, lively watering holes like Prime Pizza and Millie's Cafe, the Pasadena Farmers' Market and public & private schools. Don't miss this opportunity to create a home 'Where Your Home Happens.'
