502 Mountain View Altadena, CA 91001

Exceptional opportunity on a large Altadena lot offering significant development and investment potential. The property was affected by high winds during the Eaton fires, resulting in a tree falling onto the front house, which is currently uninhabitable. Notably, the front house underwent a major renovation in 2024, and approved plans are available, providing a valuable head start for rebuilding. According to county planning, the expansive lot is eligible for two 2-story homes, each with its own ADU, allowing for up to 9,000 square feet of total living space. This makes the property an outstanding opportunity for an owner-builder, developer, or investor seeking to maximize value. The rear house is a charming and livable 1923 cottage, featuring 1 bedroom and 1 bathroom, a kitchen, living area, and laundry room. Updates include a renovated bathroom (2019), heat pump system, and a Miele dishwasher-blending vintage character with modern convenience. A finished 2-car garage offers exceptional flexibility and is ideal for a studio, workspace, or creative use. Highlights include a split-system HVAC, polished concrete floors, insulated walls and ceiling, vaulted ceiling, and high north-facing windows that provide beautiful, diffused natural light. Two pairs of French doors open to serene
