Nestled in the enchanting Sierra Madre Canyon, and situated just up against the hillside is this incredibly charming craftsman bungalow. Built over 100 years ago in 1916, the 3 bedroom home has been lovingly maintained and updated over the years, both inside and out.
If you’ve always wanted your own footbridge, look no further than 731 Brookside Lane. Cross the delightful bridge to your front patio and discover a patio full of herbs, native plants, and calming sounds of the nearby creek. This is a true city escape if there ever was one.
Completely move-in ready, the two-story floor plan is open, airy, and brright. In fact, many windows are east-facing and bathe home in gorgeous morning light.
The main level of the home consists of a lovely living room with a river rock fireplace, period built-ins, and wood beamed ceilings.
While the home still boasts many quintessential craftsman elements, there are many modern design features including these see-through picture frames that join the living and dining spaces.
The dining room is gigantic and could possibly fit two of these dining tables side by side in case you want to maximize the number of guests for dinner parties or Sunday brunches.
You’ll love the kitchen with its butcher block counters and vintage stove and oven.
And a roomy farm house sink.
Also on this main level is the first bedroom, which is currently being used as a cozy den.
There’s also a full bath and several French doors that lead to the garden. Head upstairs for the next two bedrooms, a three quarter bath, and a laundry area.
The primary suite boasts more of that wonderful wood beamed ceiling. Plus, treetop and hillside views.
The second bedroom also has exposed wood beams. Both bedrooms have ample closet space.
The great backyard brick terrace is shaded by two magnificent mature oak trees. Recent improvements to the home include a new roof, a renovated foundation, central heating and air, new electrical panels, and a water-wise drip irrigation system. Plus, 731 Brookside Lane is located in a fantastic school district, close to hiking trails, and just a stone’s throw to Mary’s Market. This home is a dreamy retreat just a short drive or train ride away from Downtown LA and Old Town Pasadena.
