Nestled on a charming street in Altadena, just moments from the iconic Christmas Tree Lane, this spacious 4-bedroom, 3-bath home offers a rare opportunity to create your dream property in one of the area's most desirable and picturesque neighborhoods. The versatile floor plan features three bedrooms on the main level, while the private primary suite occupies the entire second floor, providing a peaceful retreat. The inviting dinning room is centered around a cozy fireplace and offers ample space for gathering and entertaining. Step outside to a generous backyard complete with a sparkling pool, mature citrus trees, and plenty of room to enjoy Southern California living. The pool was refinished a few years ago, adding value and enhancing the outdoor space. With good bones, hardwood flooring, and tremendous upside potential, this home is ready for a new owner's vision and updates. Whether you're looking to restore its original charm, renovate to your taste, or create your forever home, the possibilities are endless. Located in a beautiful, established neighborhood near shopping, dining, parks, and all that Pasadena has to offer, this property presents an exceptional opportunity to personalize and build equity in a highly sought-after location. Adding to its unique appeal, the home has served as a filming location for both television and film productions. It was featured in the movie Anywhere But Here starring Susan Sarandon, and most recently was used for extensive interior filming in Criminal Minds, further contributing to the property's distinctive history and character. **Property is being sold in its present "as-is" condition.**
