A private designer's retreat with fire safety innovations has been listed for the first time for $2,695,000 by Heather Scherbert and Lisa Zastrow, agents affiliated with the La Cañada Flintridge office of Coldwell Banker Realty. Adding peace of mind, the current owner has installed a rare and thoughtful permanent copper rooftop sprinkler system powered by gas. It operates on household water during high-risk periods and automatically switches to draw from the pool in the event of an evacuation, offering enhanced fire preparedness. Located at 4953 Alta Canyada Rd. in La Cañada Flintridge, Calif., the approximately 2,864-square-foot residence has four bedrooms, two bathrooms and two half baths.
“With a lineage of interior designers as past and present owners, the home is an intentional masterpiece where every room and outdoor space is a curated blend of style, comfort and creativity,” said Scherbert. “Whether one is seeking serene privacy, safety or award-winning La Canada schools, this one-of-a-kind retreat delivers on all fronts.”
Tucked behind a Balinese gated entry and enveloped by majestic deodar trees, this sprawling estate is an inspiring private oasis. Colorful design moments fill the home with life, while abundant skylights and solar tubes bring in soft, natural light, adding dimension and warmth to every space. This home features a convenient floor plan with an indoor-outdoor flow, where common rooms are located in the center and two bedrooms are situated on either wing. The bright eat-in kitchen offers high-end appliances like the new Sub-Zero refrigerator, dishwasher and wine fridge. A generously sized dining room has mirrored textured and paper-covered walls, a chandelier, skylights and French doors to the backyard. The custom-designed living room features a fireplace, tin ceiling, reclaimed wood built-ins and collapsible doors to the outdoors.
Designed for both solitude and inspiration, the property features tranquil outdoor living areas and a sparkling pool. Beyond the expansive patio lies a backyard designed for exploration with meandering paths, mature trees and natural landscaping. An attached two-car garage has an abundance of attic storage and parking as the property is 180 feet wide. Additional upgrades include new windows, HVAC, new laundry, repiped copper plumbing, electrical updates, tankless water heater, new irrigation, whole house soft water system, security cameras, pool equipment, remodeled bathrooms and much more.
