Property Description

A Private Designer's Retreat in the upper Alta Canyada neighborhood of La Canada Flintridge! Tucked behind a balinese gated entry and enveloped by majestic deodar trees, this sprawling 4 bedroom, 3.5 bathroom estate is an inspiring private oasis. With a lineage of interior designers as past and present owners, the home is an intentional masterpiece--where every room and outdoor space is a curated blend of style, comfort, and creativity. Colorful design moments fill the home with life, while abundant skylights and solar tubes bring in soft, natural light, adding dimension and warmth to every space. And beyond beauty, there's peace of mind: the current owner has installed a rare and thoughtful permanent copper rooftop sprinkler system powered by gas. It operates on house water during high-risk periods and automatically switches to draw from the pool in case of evacuation, offering enhanced fire preparedness. This home offers a convenient floor plan with an indoor-outdoor flow of common rooms in the center and two bedrooms on either wing. The bright eat-in kitchen offers high-end appliances with new Sub-Zero refrigerator, dishwasher, and wine fridge. A generous sized dining room with mirrored textured and paper covered walls, chandelier, skylights and French doors to the backyard. The custom designed living room features a fireplace, tin ceiling, reclaimed wood built-ins and collapsible doors to the outdoors. Designed for both solitude and inspiration, the property features tranquil outdoor living areas and a sparkling pool, making it ideal as an artist's retreat or entertainer's delight. Beyond the expansive patio lies a backyard designed for exploration - meandering paths, mature trees and natural landscaping perfect for imaginary play, tree climbing, and peaceful adventure. It's a rare setting that invites both children and adults to connect with nature. A two car attached garage with an abundance of attic storage and parking as the property is 180 feet wide. Additional upgrades include new windows, HVAC, new laundry, repiped copper plumbing, electrical updates, tankless water heater, new irrigation, whole house soft water system, security cameras, pool equipment, remodeled bathrooms and much more. Whether you're seeking serene privacy, safety or award winning La Canada schools, this one-of-a-kind retreat delivers on all fronts!
