This beautiful three bedroom, one bath traditional sits at the base of our majestic foothills on a very desirable street. You enter the charming residence via the welcoming living room, with custom built-ins and a decorative fireplace, that is bookended by windows which stream in an abundance of light. In addition, there is a sitting area, an inviting formal dining room, as well as an updated kitchen with stainless steel appliances, a quaint breakfast area and a separate laundry room with pantry. Numerous highlights include wood floors, an elegantly remodeled, spa-like bathroom, ample closet place plus an oversized, attached garage. The interior opens out to an expansive covered patio and also a private fenced yard that offers sweeping views of the regal San Gabriel Mountains rising in the distance. The property showcases idyllic curb appeal, sitting up on a raised knoll, and is landscaped with a variety of California native plantings. This is truly a wonderful place to call home.
