Description
Showcasing post and beam perfection, the O'Keefe Residence features gorgeous wood ceilings and solid red oak floors, with a warm, architectural tone and open-concept layout that allows natural light to flow effortlessly throughout. This true midcentury modern retreat was also the original model home for the private Annwood Terrace enclave in Alhambra. Built in 1960, this architectural gem sits on a sprawling nearly-quarter-acre lot at the end of a private road, with only one adjoining neighbor. Expansive living spaces connect seamlessly to the outdoors, offering endless possibilities for entertaining, future expansion, or peaceful everyday living. Thoughtfully updated throughout, the home features a renovated kitchen with quartz terrazzo counters and custom wood shelving and accents handcrafted by the current owner. Newer solid oak floors run throughout, complemented by refreshed bathrooms with chic new flooring. Major system upgrades include updated electrical, upgraded plumbing, zoned air conditioning, dual-pane windows, and more. Outside, a classic breezeblock wall frames the space, with a generous lot that invites gardening, alfresco dining, and creative expansion, with mature lemon, guava, kumquat, and passionfruit trees already in place. Solar panels (to be paid off at closing) enhance energy efficiency and lower utility costs, aligning beautifully with the home's sustainable lifestyle. Live out your urban farm dreams all while being moments from cultural and dining hubs in downtown Alhambra, San Gabriel, old town Pasadena and DTLA. Located in Alhambra and perfectly positioned near the acclaimed Mission District of San Gabriel, you're surrounded by a world-class culinary scene. Alhambra is celebrated as a true foodie destination, home to over 250 restaurants offering global flavors - from Asian fusion and Michelin-recommended favorites to beloved local classics and trend-setting dessert spots. Stroll Main Street for cafs and restaurants, or explore thevibrant Mission Drive corridor, including the popular Blossom Market Hall just minutes away. Farmers market lovers will appreciate the weekly Alhambra market, adding to the area's lively community feel. Whether you're enjoying a casual breakfast out, exploring dim sum and Asian-inspired cuisine along Main Street or ending the evening with dessert nearby, this location delivers. A truly unique opportunity to own a distinctive midcentury home on an extraordinary amount of land, in one of the LA area's most dynamic neighborhoods.
