A rare original Janes Cottage in the heart of historic Janes Village, 183 W. Mariposa is an architectural gem and a genuine piece of Altadena history. Built in 1925, the home announces itself with its high-pitched, gabled roof peaking from beyond a privacy hedge and picket fence. A welcoming awning-covered entry porch, arched multi-pane windows along the facade are framed by mature Jacaranda and lemon trees in the front yard.Inside, gleaming hardwood floors and rich details abound, from carved moldings and handsome period trim work to original character windows; this home embodies the quality craftsmanship of its era. The living room boasts a barrel vaulted ceiling and decorative 1920s fireplace with its original niche. Coved plaster ceilings flow through the dining room and into the bedr ooms, where picture rail molding adds yet another layer of authentic charm. French doors connect the dining room to the sun porch, bathing the interior in natural light and framing views of the landscaped front and back yards.The sunny kitchen enjoys garden views, with a laundry and mud room adjacent for easy backyard access. The updated full bath impresses with a marble-topped dual sink vanity, hex tile floors, beadboard paneling, and subway tile shower walls; a convenient ensuite powder bath in the front bedroom is a welcome bonus.Outside, a backyard deck and grassy front and back yards provide space to create and play. The property boasts several mature trees (including avocado, lemon, orange and apricot), roses, a grape vine, and raised garden beds. A one-car garage with storage and a 17-panel solar array with a transferrable loan (at a locked in 1.9% rate!) round out this wonderful property.Minutes from Unincorporated Coffee, Good Neighbor Bar, West Altadena Wine, Mariposa Village, Loma Alta Park, hiking trails, the recently opened Bob Lucas Memorial Library, and the burgeoning Lincoln Avenue corridor, 183 W. Mariposa is a rare and special Altadena find. Please note: this home has not undergone post-fire remediation, special showing protocol applies.
