1836 Crestmont Court, Glendale, CA 91208

Ms. Lippincott acquired these two parcels and commissioned the construction of this graceful French character home in 1931. Less common than Colonial, Tudor, and Spanish designs of that time, the elegance of its symmetrical French architectural DNA clearly manifests in its massive hipped roof with flared eaves and a tasteful single arched dormer at its center. The current Owners have been diligent stewards of this special property during their long tenure of updates and preservative care. The large glass front door invites you to a welcoming formal entry which opens to a truly grand formal step-down living room with a beamed ceiling, hardwood flooring, fireplace, original multiple pane oversized windows, and custom rich wood shelving. The dining room is large and formal as well. The kitchen has been tastefully updated with quartz counters, stainless appliances, a quaint breakfast room, and a view over the verdant north grounds. The wide central hall leads to each of the four bedrooms and three baths. The primary suite enjoys a large bedroom with a view, walk-in closet, and a remodeled primary bath with glass stall shower and its own soaking tub. This main floor also has a wonderful home office with its own private view balcony. Within the cavernous basement of storage and work room spaces there is also a bonus guest quarters with its own kitchenette, bath, and laundry room. The front grounds enjoy lawn play space, pampered gardens, and the shade of a mature tree. The north yard is a delight of Narnian-like design with more lawn and gardens accented by a waterfall/running stream, and a handmade pergola in which to rest and enjoy all this. Just a few of the features include: a newer roof, 200-amp panel, central air and heating, and an attached two car garage.
