Charming midcentury in La Cañada Flintridge asks $899K

This wonderful midcentury residence in La Cañada Flintridge is making its first foray onto the market in over five decades, according to the listing.

Built in 1955, the 1,340-square-foot residence has two bedrooms, one full bathroom, and one three quarter-sized bathroom. An additional den could be used as a third bedroom.

The little home sits on a nearly 9,000-square-foot lot with a grassy front lawn and a pair of tall palms standing guard near the main entrance.

Interior features include hardwood floors, walls of glass, a vaulted ceiling, and a stone fireplace in the living room. The kitchen appears to have been updated a bit over the years, but retains era-appropriate tile counters and an electric coil stovetop. The powder blue-colored paint job leans into the vintage aesthetic.

Behind the home is a small backyard with some slightly quirky features, including a very singular covered patio with an interesting Streamline-style design.

Asking price is $899,000.
