162 Santa Anita CT Sierra Madre, CA 91024

Craftsman Cottage in serene section of Sierra Madre has an inviting front porch that was made for serving summertime lemonade or an evening tea with that favorite read. The tile on the mantel (either Batchelder or Claycraft or ? ) gives that old world charm to the living room. The home still has its original oak hardwoods and by the looks of the side view has to be more than 3/4 inch which makes the new hardwood and laminates used in other homes feel envious (metaphorically speaking). The kitchen was redesigned in 2008 to take full advantage of modern requirements such as an abundance of pull out drawers. The all wood hickory cabinetry is capped with tasteful granite counter tops. The backsplash uses travertine and mica tiles set in a pattern that gives homage to the past, yet meets the requirements for the modern chef. The back cottage has a separate side yard and entry (is currently rented for $900 to a busy professional) and has a its own kitchen, living room and garage. This is not simply a duplex, it is two separate homes in the much sought after Sierra Madre Park tract which is walking distance to the notable Mother Moo's
hand made ice cream parlor.
