RARE ALTADENA VIEW LOT — ±0.53 ACRE | NEAR-RTI PLANS | EXCEPTIONAL PRIVACY Not all land opportunities are created equal. This extraordinary Altadena property offers a combination that is increasingly difficult to find: over half an acre of land, a private end-of-street setting, sweeping unobstructed mountain views, and professionally designed plans already nearing RTI status. Situated on an expansive ±0.53-acre lot (approximately 23,087 sq. ft.), this property was impacted by the 2025 Altadena Fire and now presents an exceptional opportunity to create a brand-new custom residence in one of Altadena’s most desirable natural settings. What truly separates this property from other available lots is its location and privacy. Tucked away at the end of the street and approached by a long shared driveway, the homesite feels removed from the surrounding neighborhood while still being conveniently located. Its elevated position captures dramatic, unobstructed panoramic mountain views, creating a spectacular backdrop for a future residence. Another major advantage: much of the difficult planning work has already been done. Included in the sale are professionally designed architectural plans for an approximately 3,200 sq. ft. two-story residence with a 2-car garage. The plans have already been submitted and are nearing Ready-to-Issue (RTI) status, potentially saving the next owner considerable time, planning, and expense compared with starting a new project from scratch. The surrounding neighborhood is already moving forward, with multiple homes under construction and a new chapter of Altadena taking shape. For those drawn to the Altadena lifestyle, the location is difficult to duplicate—close to hiking, nature, mountain recreation, and equestrian facilities, while offering the space and serenity to create a true private retreat. What makes this property stand apart: • ±0.53 acre / approximately 23,087 sq. ft. lot • Rare end-of-street location • Elevated setting with unobstructed panoramic mountain views • Professionally designed ±3,200 sq. ft. home plans included • Plans already submitted and nearing RTI status • Nearby homes already rebuilding and under construction • Close proximity to hiking trails and equestrian amenities • Opportunity to build new without starting the planning process from zero A truly special opportunity for an owner-user, builder, or developer looking to create a one-of-a-kind Altadena estate.
