Marketing Remarks for 2435 Orange Avenue La Crescenta :
This is one of La Crescenta’s prized country homes. It sits on a large parcel in the highly sought-after Briggs Terrace neighborhood, known for its award-winning schools. Fortunately, the owners have preserved the lodge-style character and thoughtfully updated the home for today’s buyer.
Inside, the large entry leads to formal living and dining rooms. The original hardwood floors add warmth throughout. In addition, a romantic stone fireplace anchors the living space. Large windows overlook the park-like grounds and bring in natural light.
The kitchen, breakfast nook, and downstairs bathroom have all been tastefully updated. Upstairs, the home offers three bedrooms. It also includes a spacious family room with a raised wood-beam ceiling. Another updated bathroom completes this level.
Meanwhile, the garage has been converted into a large media room, a laundry room, and a home office. This flexible space adds significant function to the home.
Outside, the secluded rear yard features a grassy play area and a rose garden. A built-in BBQ supports easy outdoor entertaining. In contrast, the front grounds feel expansive and private. Several mature trees frame additional play areas and gardens. Finally, the home includes an updated roof, central air and heating, and a circular driveway. All of this sits on a rare 14,000+ square foot parcel.
14000 sq. ft! What a luxury. All that land definitely cements the country feel. I am envious.
