This hillside sanctuary with panoramic canyon views in the far reaches of Altadena's 'The Meadows' offers an expansive and one of a kind elevated lifestyle. Hidden in plain sight amongst native and drought-tolerant shrubs, river rock walls and mature trees, this Mid-century ranch home is absolutely art. Pass through the covered entry to reveal a stunning envelope of natural wood shiplap plank ceilings reflecting onto white oak hardwood floors. A vista through french doors to the back yard is inspired with sculptural live oaks and a wonderland of nature and outdoor space. Everywhere, elements of this property appeal to the senses - from the fragrant Mexican marigold and varieties of sage in the gardens, to the hand-troweled textured plaster walls and hand-glazed tiles inside. Public rooms in the home swell from the grand volume of cathedral vaulted ceilings and uninterrupted space between great living room and kitchen, and also embrace, as the adjacent dining room is an intimate space where finishes and details delight. Features include a handsome decorative fireplace in the living room and built-in buffet and shelving in kitchen and dining rooms. The kitchen and pantry boast beautiful wood countertops, open-flame range, oversize Shaws farmhouse sink with deVol brass faucet hardware - the net effect offers visual calm and the dream backdrop for any cook, with direct access to the backyard for alfresco enjoyment. This property compels visitors to stay, but also encourages an almost spiritual solitude. Private spaces include two bedrooms and two baths, each with leafy views, plus a primary bedroom with a canyon scene from the west-facing windows and direct backyard access. Straight out of fantasy: imagine taking in the surroundings from the deck under the oak tree, or soak in the cedar spa, after time in the adjoining large cedar sauna. Life on this property is unequaled; here is quiet tranquility, a place to stop, and listen for birdsong, or the sound and sight of a breeze moving up El Prieto Canyon. This home is the paragon of Southern California hillside lifestyle.
