Altadena is a fabulous place to stay while visiting Los Angeles and Pasadena, Our place is walking distance to JPL/ NASA and only a 1.5 miles to the Rose Bowl. The house is built in 1951 and still has all original tiles and pine cabinets in the kitchen. It has a lovely gas stove and convection oven, microwave, toaster, pots and pans ect. The pine paneled, main bedroom (The Captain's Room) is surrounded on three side by windows with a queen bed and a glass writing desk which evokes Jules Verne. All the wood work is original and the furniture is vintage. The front bedroom is an ode to Frida Kahlo. It features a comfortable double spindle bed, a desk and a large closet with a dresser. The walls are decorated with an embroidered velvet Huipil. Every effort has been made to create an artistic, color-filled, sustainable environment that will charm you and inspire your creativity. A vintage sewing machine is even available for your use. There is an updated bathroom with a large walk in shower and a large living room with a beautiful fireplace, a comfortable sunny dining area the seats six and an extra room (the map room) which could be made up for an extra kiddo. There are front and back yards with orange trees and views of the nearby foothills. If you enjoy vintage charm, handmade artwork, unique decor that is still close to everything, has parking and lightening fast internet as well as a caring host please consider staying at our humble home. Remember to bring your hiking boots or mountain bike because miles of trails are only a 1/4 away.
