The most expensive home sold in La Crescenta this past February was 2606 Pinelawn Dr for $1,325,000. Listed for $1,295,000, this home sold and closed escrow in 45 days. The original owners purchased this La Crescenta home in 1967 for $8,500. I saw this one on caravan, it had been remodeled but not really in keeping with the style of a Webster Wiley mid-century home.

The original owner has beautifully updated this home, which sits in the heart of Blue Ribbon school districts. Boasting spectacular views of city lights, mountains, and a pool, this gently lived-in home—now on the market for the first time since its construction—delivers peace, tranquility, and stunning panoramic views, embodying all the features that make Pinecrest a highly desirable locale. Webster Wiley strategically sited this charming home as a model for his prized Pinecrest development. The kitchen dazzles with updated granite countertops, sparkling white cabinets, stainless steel appliances, and tile floors. Similarly, the bathrooms shine with modern upgrades, including a master shower featuring a pebble floor and exceptional detailing, complemented by ceramic tile molding. The home also features copper plumbing, an updated electrical panel, and a range of switches and outlets. Furthermore, double-pane windows enhance efficiency, while underground utilities, sidewalks, and street lights elevate the neighborhood’s appeal.
Boy I did a double take when I read what the owners paid for this home in 67. I had to read it twice to make sure I had it right . Hard to believe real estate was ever that cheap.
