Set into the hills of El Sereno, this character-filled 1953 mid-century home pairs original architectural details with thoughtful updates and an easy California lifestyle. The home has had just two owners since it was built and original details remain throughout, including natural-wood doors and a classic brick fireplace that anchors the light-filled living room. Three bedrooms and two beautifully updated baths - including a main bath with a deep soaking tub - make smart use of the home's footprint. Hillside views add to its sense of place. Outside, the property really opens up. A pergola-covered patio with included BBQ creates an inviting spot for outdoor dining and entertaining, while the gently rolling grassy backyard is dotted with peach, Meyer lemon, lime and apple trees - your own little hillside orchard. A gated driveway provides parking for two to three additional cars beyond the detached two-car garage. Architectural plans for an ADU are included with the sale and offer an exciting opportunity to add additional living space. The home has also benefited from significant recent investment, including new roofs on both the house and garage, solar, newer HVAC and electrical improvements, including 220V power at the garage for EV charging. El Sereno is increasingly drawing attention for its independent businesses, food scene and proximity to some of Northeast LA's favorite destinations. Pick up a bottle at Lil Cans & Bottles, check out the weekly El Sereno Night Market or hit the trails at nearby Ascot Hills. New arrivals along Huntington Drive add to the neighborhood's growing energy, while the shops, restaurants and farmers market of South Pasadena are just minutes away, with Highland Park and DTLA also within easy reach.

Some homes you walk into and immediately feel something, 3300 Thelma Ave is one of them. Tucked into the hills of El Sereno, this 1939 Spanish home sits proudly on a corner lot with beautiful hill views and the kind of character you simply can’t recreate. From the Spanish tile roof and smooth stucco to the original hardwood floors and detailed ceilings, so much of what makes this home special was worth holding onto. Inside, old and new come together in a way that feels warm, collected and intentional. Inside, coffered ceilings make this home magical and take you back in history. Rich Custom cabinetry, quartz stone, beautiful lighting and a thoughtfully designed kitchen bring a fresh perspective to the home, while the remodeled bath is its own little moment with Spanish tile and designer fixtures. But this home is about more than the details. It’s about how it feels. Peaceful in the morning. Warm when the light comes through. A place to open the doors, put on some music and have the people you love over. Friends and family will admire every corner of this special designed Modern Spanish Dream. Even the oversized garage was imagined differently. Its large bifold door opens completely, turning it into an unexpected space for long-table dinners, celebrations or evenings with friends. A basement adds extra storage or flex space, while central AC and heat and a tankless water heater bring the everyday comforts of today. Minutes from Huntington Drive, yet tucked away enough to feel like your own little escape. This is a home with history, warmth and another story waiting to be written. We welcome you to take a tour, this one is a beauty.

A potential MANSION-on-the-MOUNTAIN!!! Imagine constructing your CASTLE on a hill top that has 360-degree vistas, including uninterrupted views of Downtown L.A., Mt. San Antonio, Mt. San Gorgonio, Mt. San Jacinto, and the San Gabriel Mountains. Your Mountain MANOR would sit on more than 38 ACRES of green rolling hills, with private drives, leading up to your elegant and Secluded Sanctuary, a location that would capture admiring and envious looks from everyone. Envision an ESTATE that could be created and construction on the Crest of Ascot Hill, or the development of Hacienda El Sereno, on the very large Rancho El Sereno, a property consisting of more than 1,657,000 sq. ft. of land area, with almost every square inch offering views of the undeveloped vacant land. These 2 huge land parcels have been ‘hidden’ in plain sight, waiting for a development equal to their worth. Offered exclusively by Wade Woodcock DRE #01375606, Keller Williams Pacific Estates, DRE # 01917184. This is truly a rare opportunity to possess the personal PALACE of your dreams, placed in the middle of Los Angeles. Referenced site is located within minutes of Downtown L.A., Chinatown, the Dodger Stadium, Griffith Park, Little Tokyo, L.A. Zoo, Rose Bowl, the Huntington Library, and a very short commute to most major area freeways, including the 5, 10, 101, 110 and the 710, along with major local Streets. Additional possible uses would include a Fantastic Filming Location, an Educational Campus, as a Sports Venue, Entertainment Park, a Memorial Park, or even subdivided into smaller [but still large] residential parcels for a new ‘high end’ luxury community. Very seldom do extremely large, undeveloped vacant land parcels of this quality become available for future development, especially where a dedicated visionary can place their mark on a major memorable project placed on the top of such a highly visible location, and change the skyline of Los Angeles forever. The property consists of rolling hills, flat areas, and some slope land, with countess viewpoints which offer solace, solitude and serenity. The lots appear to have never been previously developed, or even disturbed in any manner, but we urge all potential Buyers to conduct extensive Due Diligence and completely satisfy themselves that this pristine property properly meets their needs. Owner has limited or no knowledge of the property’s uses prior to their purchase.
