Marketing for 551 Georgian Road La Canada:
Welcome home to this stunning traditional estate, located on one of the finest streets in all of La Cañada Flintridge. From the moment you arrive, the beautifully landscaped 22,761 square foot lot draws you in. A tree-lined front yard sets a serene tone. Then, step through the grand front door and into a two-story entry with a dramatic spiral staircase.
Immediately to your right, you’ll find the formal living room. It features a wood-burning fireplace and offers peaceful views of the lush front yard. Just beyond, the elegant formal dining room provides a perfect setting for hosting guests. Meanwhile, a downstairs ensuite bedroom adds flexibility for guests, in-laws, or a home office.
Next, make your way to the heart of the home—the kitchen. Recently and meticulously renovated, it showcases thoughtful design, top-tier materials, and unmatched craftsmanship. It boasts a large center island, custom cabinetry, high-end stainless steel appliances, quartzite counters, an oversized farmhouse sink, and a stylish breakfast bar. As a result, it’s perfect for both daily meals and special gatherings.
From the kitchen, flow directly into the spacious informal family room. Here, enjoy spectacular views of the expansive backyard. Additionally, a stately wet bar makes this the ideal space for entertaining or relaxing.
Heading upstairs, the second level impresses with a sprawling primary suite. It includes a fireplace, massive closets, and a luxurious primary bathroom. Enjoy dual vanities, a stall shower, and a soaking tub designed for relaxation. Furthermore, the upper level offers four more generously sized bedrooms, two additional bathrooms, and a large loft/media area—ideal for movie nights, study sessions, or family time.
I walked past the house the other day and it seemed like the new owners are already doing a lot of work on the house. Huge dumpster in front and a lot of action. I feel like I’ve seen a few homes lately sell at top dollar, then to be remodeled. This house, 4909 Oakwood, 4321 Chula Senda… If there’s no added square footage, and the new owners are just updating the style to *their* preference, where is the added value in a resale? A good example is 1600 Fairmount. The house was actually really nice before the present owners remodeled and listed. They’re assuming their remodel adds value, to a home that didn’t technically need it.
Exactly, everyone has their own taste and in this price range they can afford to personalize
