RARE REBUILDING OPPORTUNITY IN UPPER ALTADENA. Exceptional opportunity to create a custom residence in one of Altadena's most coveted foothill neighborhoods. Located at 2867 Windfall Avenue, this approximately 6,600-square-foot lot (Buyer to verify), offers an outstanding canvas for a thoughtfully designed new home surrounded by the natural beauty, architectural character and sense of community that have long distinguished this special area.

An exciting opportunity for an owner-user, builder, architect or developer to create a sophisticated contemporary retreat, timeless traditional residence or custom home designed around Altadena's exceptional indoor-outdoor lifestyle. A rare chance to build anew and create the next chapter of this special property. Buyer to independently verify lot size, zoning, utilities, permits, rebuilding rights, development potential and all applicable requirements with the appropriate governmental agencies.
Beautifully reimagined with a designer's elegant touch, this delightful three bedroom, three bathroom home is located in upper Altadena, close to the Altadena Country Club. This house combines traditional character details with numerous thoughtful updates in a bright and open floor plan. The stunning gourmet kitchen with Thermador appliances, custom cabinets, and great storage works well for day to day as well as entertaining in the wonderfully landscaped yard and patio with outdoor fireplace. There is an additional finished room on a lower level, great for a game room or office, as well as a large two car garage. This home is ready for you to move in and enjoy!
