Property Description
In 1940, Francis M. Simons selected this parcel in the Verdugo Woodlands on which to construct her beloved character cottage. She sited the house purposefully on this parcel to maximize the yard space while creating a sense of seclusion within it.
Greeted at the front door within a welcoming front porch, you are invited into the formal living room with its rich hardwood floors and character wood windows that fill the home with natural light. The oversized kitchen is a wonderful surprise with its updated tile flooring, granite counter tops, and a wall of glass overlooking the romantic covered patio and the view beyond. Both bedrooms are off the main hall with a den in the middle that could function as a third bedroom as well. The full bath has been tastefully updated and the primary bedroom has its own primary bath.
The rear yard is a wonderful surprise with lawn play space, pampered gardens, mature trees and a lovely view. There is also a small storage area around the back that could make for a clever home office. Just a few of the features include central air and heating, a new roof, laundry area off the main hall, and an attached garage. Per the GUSD website, this property is within the Fremont Elementary, Rosemont Middle, and Crescenta Valley High School districts.
