This 1929 Spanish Colonial Revival preserves its historical integrity with original wood trim, a custom masonry fireplace, and arched entryways, offering a unique charm that is highly sought after in Alhambra.
The property features a detached garage and a separate storage building on a generous 6,335 sqft lot, providing a prime opportunity for an Accessory Dwelling Unit (ADU) conversion to increase value or rental income.
