About 1160 Sonoma Dr

Nestled on one of Altadena’s last remaining historic streets, this timeless gem offers a unique opportunity to own a piece of local history. Remarkably spared by recent wildfires, this property combines peace of mind with unparalleled character. The gated, and oversized lot has RV access with massive space and several ways it could be a great home base while you rebuild. Or build your dream home here on one of the last streets left with Altadena’s rich heritage. This charming 1915 one bedroom cottage is nestled in the back of a sprawling .28 acre lot, tucked away behind a spacious garage & small studio. Out front you'll find a small orchard of mature orange, mandarin, grapefruit & plum trees; an automatic gate secures the property. This is a rare opportunity to acquire a starter home with beautiful grounds in a tightly held area of Altadena, down the street from the Altadena Country Club. The property is currently tenant occupied. Please do not disturb the tenants.
