About This Property
This is the Sparr Heights opportunity of a lifetime! Two story, five bedrooms, three full bathrooms Tudor Revival built in 2012 with all the bells and whistles, from backyard pool to massive attic storage space, from finished garage with loft to cook’s kitchen, from beautifully landscaped front yard to private fully enclosed backyard. The piece de resistance is the unobstructed view of the Glendale hills from the front porch. Sitting here with your morning cup of coffee is the way to start your day. This house was completely rebuilt from the foundation up. In fact, 40% of the foundation was replaced. This means that the house meets current California earthquake retrofit requirements including a bolted foundation. There is hardwood flooring, recessed lights, baseboard molding and Jeld-Wen double pane Low-E windows with plantation shutters throughout the house. The living room has a gas fireplace surrounded by decorative glass tile. The kitchen down the hallway opens to the family room and backyard. It is country chic with plenty of custom wood cabinetry including a pantry closet, hand rubbed bronze hardware, soft close drawer slides and slide out shelves, fireclay farm house sink and all stainless steel Kenmore Elite appliances including a 5-burner range, convection oven and warming bin. There’s a breakfast bar, a sizable kitchen desk and a laundry closet with Samsung washer and dryer. The counters are black speckled granite. The adjoining family room has a media area, and plenty of floor to ceiling windows to marry it to the backyard. French doors provide access. Three bedrooms are on the first level and two more are upstairs. All the bedrooms have ceiling fans. The downstairs Master has a full bathroom with marble counter, hexagonal white tile floor, double sinks with Kohler faucets, stand alone seamless glass shower, soaking tub and Mirabelle toilet. The walk-in closet has built-in cabinets and dresser. The other two bedrooms have plush closets with built-in dressers. For cat lovers off one of the bedrooms is access to a private kitty litter room in its own housing keeping unwanted odor out. Before going upstairs don’t miss the Harry Potter room underneath the staircase! Upstairs on the landing is a reading nook and linen closet. The stairs have formidable stair guards at bottom and top for child safety. The two bedrooms are good sized, one with its own reading nook, the other with access to a giant attic storage area fully floored. The full upstairs bathroom has checkerboard tile flooring, two stand alone basin sinks with swivel mirrors and Moen faucets, and a shower over tub. Downstairs beside the family room, strategically located to serve as a pool changing area, is a third full bathroom. Next to it is a closet for pool towels. The backyard is smartly done with a mix of landscaping and brick. The patio has a protective pergola lit with attractive custom built metal and mica sconces.The navy bean shaped pool is solar heated by panels on the hidden side of the garage roof. The detached 2-car garage is partially finished with work bench, shelves and upstairs loft with separate air conditioner unit. This house includes a whole house security system, soft water system, water filtration system in the kitchen, giant attic storage area, whole house sprinkler system, spark arrestor and rain cap on chimney, dual zone HVAC systems, tankless water heater, gutters, exterior security lights, and removable pool fence. The walkability factor is through the roof, from Trader Joes to Montrose shopping, Montrose Park to Fremont Elementary.
