Property Description
An Iconic Craftsman Estate in Sierra Madre Welcome to 481 W. Highland Ave—an architectural gem built in 1910, nestled on a gated 1.24-acre lot in one of Sierra Madre’s most sought-after neighborhoods. This expansive Craftsman estate offers approximately 6,702 SF of living space and reflects the enduring beauty and scale of early 20th-century design. A wide, welcoming front porch with signature river rock columns invites you in. Inside, the grand entry and formal foyer are framed by rich original woodwork and period details. The home offers multiple entertaining spaces, including formal living and dining rooms, a cozy sunroom, enclosed balconies, and flexible-use rooms ideal for a study, den, or creative retreat. The kitchen remains true to its era, functional and full of charm, supported by a butler’s serving area that adds utility and character. Throughout the home, craftsmanship is on display—from leaded glass windows and built-ins to the carved staircase and timeless finishes. In 1996, a detached 2-bedroom, 1-bath guest house was added above the 4-car garage, offering approx. 1,107 SF of self-contained living space—complete with its own kitchen, laundry, and HVAC system. Outdoors, a large rear patio offers an ideal setting for entertaining or relaxing, with views of
