Newly built in 2026, this 3 bed, 2.5 bath single-story Altadena residence offers approximately 2,419 square feet of beautifully designed living space on a private, nearly half-acre lot with a sparkling pool and extraordinary outdoor entertaining spaces. Set deep within the property on a quiet street, the home is surrounded by expansive, terraced gardens, mature hedging, and thoughtfully designed areas for al fresco dining, lounging, and gathering. Custom landscaping by Ferox Studio lends a Mediterranean influence to the grounds, creating a peaceful retreat with exceptional privacy and room to entertain on a grand scale. A long shared driveway, two-car garage, and generous additional parking complete this rare offering. Inside, the light-filled open floor plan flows from a formal living room anchored by a fireplace into a beautifully appointed kitchen featuring a spacious center island with engineered quartz countertops, custom soft-close cabinetry, designer tile and lighting, and Bosch appliances. Beyond the kitchen, a dining area with a dry bar opens to a comfortable sitting room, where oversized windows frame views of the surrounding gardens. All three bedrooms are positioned along one side of the home, creating separation from the main entertaining spaces. The primary suite offers a private retreat with a generous walk-in closet and a beautifully finished bathroom featuring dual vanities, custom cabinetry, designer fixtures and tile, a frameless glass shower, and a freestanding soaking tub. Two additional bedrooms share a full bath, while a conveniently located powder room sits just outside the bedroom wing.

Outside, the nearly half-acre grounds are a true highlight of the property. A covered outdoor dining area provides an inviting setting for al fresco meals, while steps lead up to the expansive pool terrace, where a large rectangular pool with a new retractable cover is complemented by an elevated spa with a cascading waterfall. Towering palm trees and lush greenery lend a tropical, resort-like atmosphere, with multiple lounging areas, a fire pit seating area, and oversized grassy yard space offering distinct settings for relaxation and entertaining. Custom landscape and hardscape incorporates mature hedging, olive trees, lavender, and drought-tolerant plantings, creating a fully fenced, exceptionally private outdoor retreat for everything from quiet afternoons by the pool to larger gatherings and celebrations. Thoughtfully constructed, the home features all-new systems and infrastructure, including HVAC, a tankless water heater, copper and PEX plumbing, electrical with a 200-amp panel, dual-pane windows, and a new foundation. Additional amenities include integrated Sonos whole-home audio, Nest thermostats, Lutron lighting controls, Starlink internet, and conduit for future EV-charger installation. Ideally located in Altadena, the property offers convenient access to the shops, cafes, and restaurants along Lake Avenue, as well as nearby hiking trails and outdoor recreation in the San Gabriel Mountains. Combining the ease of single-story living with exceptional privacy, expansive grounds, and the benefits of new construction, this home offers a rare opportunity for resort-like living in the heart of Altadena.
