Property Details

Description

Cherished by the same family for 34 years, this stunning three-bedroom, two-bath residence sits on one of Whittier's most coveted tree-lined streets — Cadbury Road — where neighbors stay for decades and homes rarely come available. At 1,723 square feet on a lot exceeding 10,000 square feet, this is a property that has been genuinely lived in, celebrated in, and loved. Built in 1940 with fully insulated walls that keep the interior naturally cool and quiet year-round, every window has been replaced and custom blackout shades fitted to each room. The formal living room is anchored by a fireplace with marble surround, flanked by custom built-in bookshelves and a sweeping bay window with built-in seating. The kitchen delivers custom cream cabinetry against polished black granite countertops, and the dining room features elegant wainscoting and built-in glass display shelving. The resort-style backyard is where this property truly sets itself apart. The custom pool features an integrated wading pool with a kids' fountain, and a 12-man spa — all surrounded by mature privacy hedging, and an upper entertaining patio shaded by a black and white striped awning with a cast iron bistro set overlooking the pool below. Handcrafted French Quarter iron lamp posts and bougainvillea in full bloom complete a backyard that functions like a private venue. Outdoor furniture included. The crown jewel is the French Quarter-inspired pool house: a fully appointed pavilion with its own kitchenette, full bathroom, additional shower, and dedicated changing room. Sunbrella furnishings convert to a queen-size sleeping arrangement — a true guest suite and entertainment destination in one. The detached oversized two-car garage offers generous workspace, ideal for hobbies, projects, a home workshop or a potential ADU. Located Five minutes from freeway access. Ten minutes to Uptown Whittier, on a street where people put down roots. Homes like this — with this history, this lot, and this backyard — do not come available often. This one is ready for its next chapter.
