Property details

About 1738 La Paz Rd

Rare development opportunity in a well-preserved East Altadena neighborhood with peaceful block-to-block streets, charming character homes, and mature trees. This large, flat, north-facing lot offers a unique chance to build your new dream home while embracing the timeless appeal of the surrounding area. The previous home included 1,440 square feet of living space, and the original detached two-car garage is still intact. According to current L.A. County guidelines, the new owner should be able to expand the footprint by up to 200 additional square feet and convert the existing garage into an ADU using existing setbacks through a fast-track approval process. The generous 7,224 square foot lot also provides the potential to build a significantly larger residence. (All of this information should be verified by the buyer with the LA County Building Department.) This is an exceptional opportunity to bring your vision to life in one of Altadena's most coveted and established neighborhoods.
