Well-maintained, spacious mid-century ranch home well above Foothill Blvd. in the coveted Monte Vista Elementary area of La Crescenta. Current and prior owners have had the good sense to preserve much of the character of the home, while also making upgrades like dual pane windows, kitchen remodel etc. Upon entry you are greeted by an open floor plan that connects living, large dining (with wet bar) and well-sized kitchen. On one side of the common area is a wing with three bedrooms and bathroom. On the other is a unique feature-- a suite with bathroom, bedroom and office, which also has a separate front entrance (thus potentially an ADU). A laundry room off of the kitchen and a large attached garage complete the floor plan. The driveway leads to iron gates inside which is a paved yard that can also serve as additional parking or perhaps even offer space for a pool. There is also a separate shaded brick patio off of the living room The home is just a few blocks above both Double Blue Ribbon Monte Vista Elementary and Two Strike Park (which is also accessible via bridge and ramp at Henrietta). Close by is Blue Ribbon Rosemont Middle School, and further down are shopping and other amenities on Foothill Blvd. Blue Ribbon La Crescenta schools K-12.
