Property Description
Designed in 1960 by architect Jack Simison, AIA, this post-and-beam residence is located in Altadena's coveted Meadows neighborhood, a rare enclave of approximately 250 homes situated between El Prieto and Millard Canyons. Celebrated for its serenity and access to nature, The Meadows offers hiking trails throughout, while remaining just minutes from Pasadena shops, dining, Caltech, JPL, and Old Town.
Tucked at the end of a quiet cul-de-sac, the home rests on an expansive lot with meandering stone paths and a botanical garden-like setting filled with native and drought tolerant plantings, and mature fruit trees, including citrus and persimmon. The tiered, multilevel gardens are seasonally enlivened with colorful blooms and fragrant flowers in spring through mid-summer. Expansive walls of glass bring the outdoors in, flooding the interiors with natural light and framing lush greenery and valley views.
The 1,585 square foot main level features 2 bedrooms, 2 bathrooms, plus a library that could serve as a 3rd bedroom. Beneath the main level, the property also features a versatile 370 square foot permitted studio with 3/4 bath and a separate entrance, which offers endless flexibility as a home office, art studio, workshop, or guest suite. Additional highlights include cork floors in the living room, built-in cabinetry, louvered windows, and a striking decorative brick fireplace that defines the entry and living areas. The original kitchen retains its mid-century character, while the primary suite opens to a private patio—ideal for a hot tub or quiet retreat. An expansive deck off the main living spaces provides an exceptional venue for entertaining, with views of the valley and city lights below.
Generous storage space is available both inside the home and behind the carport, where multiple closets and a walk-in storage room provide excellent workspace potential.
With minimal through-traffic, stunning surroundings, and unmatched trail access, residents of The Meadows enjoy peace, privacy, and a rare connection to nature—all while staying close to the best of Southern California.
