Altadena was my first stop at the Broker’s Open House last week.  I was looking forward to seeing 2420 Ganesha Avenue.  Why?  Well Ganesha is a beautiful street that runs North and South, and it is right around the corner from the Altadena Country Club and the Golf Course. (Where I play golf…)

Plus, it’s always a treat to see the San Gabriel Mountains as a backdrop of many great properties situated in beautiful Altadena.

2420 Ganesha Avenue is a lovely traditional that is perfect for buyers looking for space and a private quarter that would be suited for extended family, studio and office.
