Property Description

Welcome to a significant piece of La Canada history, the iconic 1939 adobe hacienda designed by its first owner, civil engineer Robert Wilder Van Stan (he was responsible for bridge construction along the Angeles Crest Highway). Sited on a private, secluded half-acre lot more than 200 feet off of Angeles Crest, it is a world unto itself, yet easily accessible to Foothill Boulevard and with convenient freeway access. A fabulous example of California adobe architecture, the home and grounds have been lovingly restored and updated by its current owners. The generous floor plan includes 4 bedrooms, two of which are suites, 3 baths, living room, den, formal dining room and kitchen with breakfast nook. Almost every room boasts original, open-beamed redwood ceilings and doors leading directly outdoors to the verdant grounds. Towering old-growth pine, Walnut, Chinese Elm, Mulberry, Palm and fruit trees blend beautifully with professionally landscaped native and succulent plantings. A gardener's dream. Two fountains, fire pit and fire table. Pool and free-standing spa. Separate casita with all amenities. Award-winning La Canada schools. Mills Act potential!
