About This Property
Welcome to this enchanting 1929 Spanish Colonial Revival, where timeless architecture, modern updates, and everyday convenience come together in one unforgettable home. Offered for the first time in over 20 years, this cherished residence is nestled on a peaceful, tree-lined street in the highly desirable Emery Park neighborhood, one of Alhambra's most sought-after areas. From the moment you arrive, you'll be captivated by the lush front yard, inviting walkway, and private foyer entrance. A graceful arched entryway and beautifully accented wood front door set the tone for the warmth and craftsmanship found throughout. Inside, higher ceilings create an airy feel, while original wood trim details, abundant natural light, updated light fixtures, recessed lighting, and recent interior and exterior touch-ups blend character with modern comfort. The welcoming living room features wood flooring and a stunning one-of-a-kind custom masonry fireplace, showcasing the artistry and craftsmanship of a bygone era. Beyond the charming archway, you'll find a spacious dining area and a beautifully remodeled kitchen featuring granite countertops, contemporary cabinetry, dual-pane windows, a stainless steel range hood, dishwasher, and breakfast bar. Adjacent to the kitchen is a convenient laundry room and a versatile sunroom overlooking the backyard through dual-pane sliding doors. Outside, a newly constructed deck spans the length of the home, creating the perfect setting for entertaining, dining, or relaxing beneath the mature shade tree. The expansive backyard also features a detached garage, separate storage building, and a long gated driveway. The garage and storage structure offer exciting potential for a future ADU/JADU, workshop, or additional storage (buyer to verify). Ideally located within the Alhambra Unified School District, this home is just moments from Emery Park, Main Street Alhambra, popular restaurants, coffee shops, tea houses, bakeries, and shopping destinations including Costco, Target, Sprouts, and 99 Ranch Market. Convenient access to the I-10, I-710, and SR-60 freeways places Downtown Los Angeles, Pasadena, South Pasadena, San Gabriel, San Marino, Monterey Park, and Arcadia all within easy reach. Whether you're a first-time buyer, downsizing, or simply seeking a home rich in charm and character, this Spanish Colonial gem offers a rare opportunity to own a piece of Alhambra history while enjoying the conveniences of modern living.
