To all of my friends affected by the fires in Northern and Southern California, please read this notice from the California Bureau of Real Estate

Please come to my Open House on Saturday September 23 from 1-4pm!

In case you can't read the small print on my flyer for the San Dimas property, here's the text: Beautiful Craftsmen home from the early 20th Century with that wonderfully large front porch of brick and two huge windows in the front of the house looking out onto your lovely yard with glorious shade trees and a rocky mountain stone retaining wall. This home has Old World charm and modern improvements like updated bathrooms (granite in one, spectacular antique vanity in the oth...er), and a granite kitchen with newer laminate flooring and exquisite wood cabinetry. There is a granite center island in the kitchen with its own stainless-steel utility sink and extra disposal. Lots of room in the formal dining room off the kitchen for your big table. The home has Central Air and Heat. A home built for gracious living, there are two living rooms in the front of the house on either side of the staircase to your second level. One we call the parlor which was no doubt the site of many a musical performance on Sundays back in the day. The other generous living room has a large brick fireplace and this room is open to the dining room. There are two spacious (really spacious!) upstairs bedrooms, one of which is the master with an exercise area and room for a couch. In addition, there is a guest room upstairs with a trundle bed. That’s 3 bedrooms upstairs and still downstairs has another bedroom with an adjoining bath! The back yard of this home is made for entertaining with a beautiful patio and BBQ area and lots of potential to develop the terraced area above the patio on your nearly HALF-ACRE lot. The old storage shed makes a great potting area or fashion it into an outside bar. There is a waterfall feature that comes from the terraced hillside. Come see this substantial home in a charming section of vintage homes in quaint San Dimas. You will fall in love. See more

Check out my new listing in Whittier: This is a rare opportunity to own a home with unique character & much history! Not on the market for decades, this gorgeous Spanish Ranch home called Ranchito Del Fuerte was built in 1924 by Harriett Strong on 220 acres she originally purchased in 1867 from Don Pio Pico, the last governor of California under Mexican rule. With Harriett’s passing in 1926, the land gave way to the development of delightful surrounding homes in the 1940’s.... Today, this beautiful home remains in itsmajesty on an impressive nearly 1/2 acre lot with wonderfully mature trees in a natural setting which can be enjoyed from the beautiful backyard w/salt water pool, spa & built-in BBQ. The spacious interior (2869 sq ft) has the old world charm of an era gone by with lots of solid wood throughout in 4 Beds & 3 full baths. The parlor is large enough to accommodate a concert grand piano at one end & a large settee of furniture placed around the cozy fireplace at the other. This home has been lovingly maintained & original touches kept by the current owners with topnotch Lennox heating & A/C + kitchen upgrades added to make this a wonderful turnkey home! Large eat-in area/den off the kitchen is in addition to the formal dining room you would expect in a manor like this. Priced to sell! Call me for a personal tour! 562-260-9600
