About this home

Often referred to as "The Balcony of Southern California", La Crescenta boasts the benefits of serene mountain resort-like living and quick access to the magic of a major metropolis, including downtown Los Angeles and the media capitals of Hollywood and Burbank. Less well-known within this beautiful small town is the highly sought after and exclusive Pinecrest neighborhood, nestled high up the slope and offering distinctive Mid-Century Modern classics from famous local architect Webster Wiley. Welcome to 3033 Hopeton, a delightful dwelling that has been completely remodeled over the years. Here, in the newly reimagined, fully permitted private oasis of a one-of-a-kind backyard, nestled against the hills of the Angeles National Forest and San Gabriel National Monument, you will enjoy the epitome of Southern California indoor-outdoor living. Host large parties under the spacious pavilion where the gorgeous new outdoor kitchen, BBQ, and full wet bar facilitate festivities with family and friends like watching the big games on the outdoor TV. Conversely, you can lounge meditatively in one of two jacuzzis or sip your favorite drinks on the baja shelf in your stunning new pool. Basking in the quiet beauty of the birds, animals, and natural world in a sumptuously serene setting, you'll admire the amazing, unobstructed mountain views, spectacular sunsets, and dazzlingly dark starlit skies. Even take a nighttime stroll up your backyard stairs and view the city lights, or on clear days, see all the way to the ocean. Coming back inside, you'll enter through beautiful French doors--either the open, bright, and airy high-ceiling dining/living area or the combined family/kitchen space. Energy-efficient Andersen windows throughout the home allow you to take in the natural setting beyond your spa-like backyard while enjoying the indoors. Just past the living room is the expansive primary suite with a recently updated bathroom and a romantic, private outdoor patio with another in-ground jacuzzi. Two other spacious bedrooms with another updated bathroom (slate floors and Caesarstone countertop) round out this single-story 2,048 sq ft home on a huge, more than 30,000 sq ft, over two-thirds-acre lot. Beckoning you back from the nearby city's bustle, this spectacular backyard retreat restores your zen and this Mid-Century classic invites you home!
