While the description highlights natural breezes, there is no explicit mention of a central air conditioning system, which could be a drawback for comfort during warmer months in Altadena.
The 'mountain retreat' setting, while offering tranquility, may imply a more secluded location that could be less convenient for quick access to certain urban amenities or services for some buyers.
Built in 2005, while many cosmetic and structural updates have been made, some original major systems (e.g., HVAC, water heater beyond the shower's instant hot water) may be approaching the end of their typical lifespan, potentially requiring future investment.
ASSUMABLE 2.625% LOAN! A Letter from the Owner - If you have the good fortune of being the next owner of this home, I hope you’ll love it as deeply as I have. When I first saw this house nestled in the quiet hills, I knew it was something special. It felt peaceful, safe, and alive all at once …a mountain retreat where time slows down and beauty stretches for miles. The outdoor kitchen quickly became my favorite gathering place. Mornings begin with coffee as the sun climbs over the mountains, and evenings end with dinner beneath a sky filled with color that fades into a sea of city lights. On the Fourth of July, fireworks sparkle from Dodger Stadium to the Rose Bowl, a show that feels like it was made just for this view. Nature has a voice here. You’ll often see deer wandering across the hills just above the property, hear owls calling at night, and on certain days catch the sun’s reflection glimmering on the Pacific Ocean in the distance. The sunsets from the upper deck are breathtaking, each one a quiet masterpiece that makes you stop and simply watch. When I bought this home just a few years ago, I invested in all-new flooring, fresh interior paint, a new fireplace in the master bedroom, and a beautifully tiled shower with instant hot water and three shower heads. I also added a new roof. The only reason I’m leaving now is because I’m getting older and need to be closer to my three sons. The VA loan on this home, at just 2.6%, can be transferred to the next buyer. It’s a rare opportunity that will save you thousands each month. If you’d like to know more, feel free to reach out through the realtor. My hope is that the next owner will feel the same sense of peace, gratitude, and wonder that I’ve felt living here. - Warmly, The Proud Owner
