Set high in the Foothills on a quiet cul-de-sac, this gently sloping 9,062 square foot site offers an exceptional opportunity to build in one of Altadena's most sought-after neighborhoods. Just moments from Farnsworth Park and the area's renowned trail network, it captures the essence of foothill living: clear mountain air, the scent of chaparral, and a peaceful setting with sweeping views of the San Gabriel Mountains, the valley below and unforgettable sunsets. A 1,692 square foot home once occupied the site, and under the Altadena Community Standards District guidelines, a new residence of nearly 3,000 square feet plus a separate ADU may be permissible. Both Phases I and II of cleanup and debris removal have been completed by the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers, and the parcel now qualifies for express lane rebuilding, streamlining the path to new construction.

Don’t miss this exceptional opportunity to build in one of Altadena’s most desirable foothill neighborhoods. Set on a 6,073 sq ft parcel (approx. 50’ x 120’) at 343 W Woodbury Rd, this R-1 zoned lot previously housed a residence lost in the January 2025 Eaton Fire, which impacted the surrounding area. Now cleared and ready for redevelopment, it offers a blank canvas for homeowners, builders, and investors alike—whether the vision is to create a custom dream home or a sought-after new construction project in a high-demand market. All utilities, including water, power, gas, and sewer, are available at the street, and rebuilding must comply with California’s updated Wildland-Urban Interface (WUI) and fire-hardening standards, incorporating features such as ember-resistant vents, non-combustible siding, enclosed eaves, and Class A roofing. Los Angeles County’s current ADU regulations also allow for the addition of an Accessory Dwelling Unit, providing flexibility for multigenerational living, rental income, or increased property value. The lot sits within an established residential neighborhood with paved street access, curbs, and gutters, surrounded by ongoing rebuilds that reflect the community’s continued revitalization. Soil and foundation conditions are typical for the area, and the site’s cleared status helps streamline the redevelopment process. With proximity to scenic hiking trails, local parks, and Altadena’s charming shops and cafés, as well as easy access to Pasadena, JPL, and the 210 Freeway, the location combines lifestyle appeal with strong long-term appreciation potential. Whether designing a modern, fire-resilient sanctuary tailored to personal vision or developing a profitable infill project in a thriving foothill community, this ready-to-build lot presents a rare and rewarding opportunity.

This spacious 7,874 sqft lot with mountain views near the Altadena Country Club includes an unfinished ADU with 408 sqft. The permitted ADU began as a garage conversion before the fires and survived almost untouched, unlike the 4 Bedroom/3 Bathroom house (2,173 sqft). The framework for a bathroom and a large living, dining, and kitchen area exists with all-new windows and sliding doors that open to the outdoors and a round, in-ground hot tub (existing walls remain). All materials and appliances - still new and boxed - are included with the property, along with the ADU plans and contact information for the LA County office, engineer, and contractor. The structure requires assembly, drywall installation, and finishing work; the electrical is partially completed. A new sewer line and water pipes were installed before the fire, though their current condition is unknown. A tankless water heater and new electrical panel are already in place.
