California, Los Angeles County, La Canada Flintridge, USA

Set on a private, sprawling 1.45-acre lot, this stunning La Canada Flintridge estate offers a captivating blend of distinctive architecture and natural beauty. On the market for the first time in over 50 years, the property was originally marketed as an equestrian's dream, complete with 'room for horses to roam, including a training ring and multiple corrals.' Still zoned for equestrian use, the property maintains its heritage with a large corral and easy access to nearby riding trails.Today, the estate features a striking 2,980-square-foot residence built in 1969. Large fir beams and vaulted ceilings lend warmth and depth, while expansive windows and skylights flood the home with natural light and showcase stunning views of the San Gabriel Mountains and sweeping lawns.Two bridges offer unique entry points. The lower bridge brings you through a dramatic 15-foot door into a formal, skylit entryway. The upper bridge leads into an inviting galley kitchen with butcher block countertops, a commercial-grade antique Wolf stove, stainless appliances, built-in bar, and panoramic views. A formal dining room flows into a grand living room anchored by an original 56-inch adobe brick fireplace. Downstairs are four bedrooms and three baths, including a spacious primary suite with its own fireplace and private patio overlooking the grounds. A sizable basement includes laundry, a utility sink, and generous storage space. Next to the main home is the original 989 square-foot guest house. Renovated in 2018, it features vaulted ceilings, its own fireplace, butcher block counters, Thermador stainless appliances, and commercial-grade laundry. Dual entrances lead to a large wraparound patio. The lush, lovingly maintained grounds host mature fruit trees--orange, lemon, fig, persimmon, apple, apricot, kumquat, mulberry, and pomegranate. A once-in-a-generation offering brimming with history, heart, and a soul all its own--in the foothills of La Canada Flintridge, where timeless beauty meets quiet magic.
