Perched atop a grassy knoll in the heart of the famed Sierra Madre Canyon, sits the aptly named "Empire Cottage at the Spring." (Its not really a cottage.) As you meander up your own stairway to heaven, the gentle sounds of a year-round, running stream set the mood for an unbelievable experience. Exhale deeply at the top of the path as you take in the sights and sounds of this immensely private and personal paradise. Majestic 200 year old oak trees and lush landscaping will soothe your eyes. Hand-built stone walls and a quaint bridge greet you at the entrance of this enchanted home. As your guests arrive at your front door, they will pull a chain, and then faintly hear, echoing from within, the old fashioned doorbell playing Westminster chimes from brass tubular bells hanging in the interior stairwell. Through the massive front door awaits a world of magic. An impressive 1920s chandelier and built-in cabinetry grace the entry room which opens onto a storybook living room complete with dark wood walls and a massive fireplace all of which exude the last vestiges of old money, grace and charm. The kitchen and the third bedroom/family room await the finishing touches that will bring these rooms to full completion. Climb the well-worn stairway to the second level with 2 bedrooms, a 3/4 bath and a laundry room. The laundry room includes a horizontal axis washer, gas dryer, an Elkay stainless steel laundry tub and built-in ironing board. Lights turn on/off automatically upon entering/exiting the laundry room. Bathrooms and laundry room have remotely located exhaust fans to ensure peaceful operation. Upstairs bedroom closets automatically illuminate and feature hold-open and self-closing doors. For the chef that loves to make lots of smoke in your kitchen, this home is equipped with a Dayton restaurant exhaust fan. At the flip of a switch, your chef will wonder where all the smoke went. Updated infrastructure includes a large 200-amp electric service and a very responsive 2-zone HVAC forced air system. Updated, oversized copper plumbing throughout. This residence is equipped with a hot water recirculating loop that supplies instant hot water to each and every fixture, including laundry & dishwasher hookups. This home has oversized copper gutters/ downspouts & city sewer. Hold your breaththeres more! This home also includes a 2nd, buildable parcel of land. Build on it or enjoy this oasis as it has been for decades. The choice is yours to make. . .
