Elementary School: Valley View Elementary School (10/10). Middle School: Rosemont Middle School (9/10). High School: Crescenta Valley High School (9/10).
The property is situated in the highly-coveted La Crescenta area, offering access to top-rated Glendale Unified schools including Valley View Elementary and Crescenta Valley High, which consistently drives high demand and property value.
In a neighborhood where new construction is extremely limited, this lot provides a rare 'blank canvas' opportunity for a buyer to build a custom residence tailored to their specific needs.
The property currently lacks separate electric and water meters, requiring the buyer to navigate the logistical and financial burden of installing new utility connections.
The existing structure includes unpermitted living space and is currently utilized as a workshop, likely necessitating a full teardown or significant legal and construction costs to normalize the site for residential use.
Rare opportunity to build your own home in one of the most desirable residential neighborhoods near Los Angeles—La Crescenta, known for its top-rated schools, peaceful community, and exceptional quality of life. This property offers a prime chance to create a custom residence in an area where new-construction opportunities are extremely limited. Situated close to the 210 freeway, Korean markets, grocery stores, and numerous dining options, the location provides unmatched convenience while maintaining a quiet residential feel. The lot spans over 5,000 sq.ft., with the county profile reflecting 594 sq.ft. of existing living space with a bathroom (profile shows 0 bathroom). The seller currently uses the property as workshop and parking, and there is additional unpermitted living space that has been expanded over time. Currently, there are no separate electric or water meters, so buyer will be responsible for installing new meters. The parcel sits adjacent to the currently listed 3252 Foothill Blvd commercial property and while the seller prefers to sell both together, each can be purchased separately. The combination offers unique flexibility for buyers seeking residential development alongside commercial ownership. Don’t miss this rare chance to build a new home in La Crescenta—an area where opportunities like this seldom come to market.
