Quaint Craftsman-style cottage in Sierra Madre seeks $639K

Sierra Madre’s location up in the foothills of the San Gabriel Mountains, and its small-town feel are a perfect fit for this Craftsman-inspired cottage.

The one-bedroom, one-bathroom house measures 648 square feet, but packs a lot into that space.

The cottage was originally built in the 1950s but was redone in 2008 in the Craftsman style. Details like a shingled exterior, Batchelder-style tiles, built-ins, French doors, a two-sided fireplace, hardwood floors, and wainscoting help it achieve that old-time look.

There have been modern upgrades too: The residence is equipped with dual-paned windows, an electric car charger in the carport, and a little nook on the back patio for a stackable washer and dryer.

The house at 294 Old Ranch Road is listed for $639,000 with Sarah Rogers of Compass.
