200 Mariposa Street
Altadena, CA 91001
Sold
Hidden in plain sight behind a sculptural fence and lush landscaping, this charming 1929 bungalow is the essence of Southern California Spanish revival charm. With pomegranate, apple, Meyer lemon, orange, grapefruit and fig trees in the garden scented by verbena and geraniums, this house on Mariposa 'butterfly' street is a pollinator paradise, complete with the sounds of a bubbling fountain. Down a gently curving path, this sweet home reveals itself to be in perfect harmony with its surroundings -- the terracotta roof and clay toned stucco with traditional smooth 'cat face' finish echo the natural colors in the garden and foothills, on view from the front porch. The architecture here remains gloriously intact - from the welcoming entry arches, to the coved ceilings, arched fireplace and fabulous curved picture window in the living room - this is that coveted authentic 1920s Spanish style home. Pretty, light hardwood floors and the organic texture of lathe and plaster walls with recessed tray ceilings continue from the living room into a light-filled dining room conveniently located just before the kitchen. The kitchen is a joyful revelation of custom tile counters and walls in emerald green glazed with hand painted, nature-motif accents. Lovely custom-built wood garden window offers a place to grow fresh herbs, just above the superlative Shaws apron sink -- don't miss its sister-sink across the kitchen, complete with pot filler faucet next to the range! Kitchen door opens to an oversized back deck with so many spaces to relax and entertain; outdoor cooking is almost obligatory with a gas line connection for the grill in one corner, sink and countertop in the other. Second access to the deck is through dreamy french doors from the sunny primary bedroom - it's a fantasy. Down the hall from the primary bedroom find delightful full bath with arched bathtub alcove in sea glass green and built-in cabinetry, and a charming built-in desk niche. A second bedroom boasts plentiful natural light as well as garden and mountain views. Spacious garage can be used as an office or indoor seating for patio parties.It's all lovely here.
