909 S Almansor Street

Alhambra, CA 91801

Morning light comes through brand-new windows at 909 S Almansor Street, crossing the wide-plank floors and catching the deep forest-green tile that frames the fireplace. The vaulted ceiling draws your eye up as you step inside this renovated 1938 single-story home. With 3 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms, it offers approximately 1,377 sq ft on a 5,117 sq ft lot. Out front, a landscaped lawn and brick steps frame the entry, opposite Martha Baldwin Elementary School, a National Blue Ribbon School in 2003 and 2023. From the living room, drift past the dining area into the remodeled kitchen. The waterfall peninsula is where you pull up a stool and stay to talk while dinner simmers on the gas range. Faceted glass pendant lights cast a warm glow over the veined backsplash and wood cabinetry, while a brass-toned faucet catches the daylight by the window. Premium stainless steel appliances anchor the kitchen, and a long stretch of counter leaves room for morning coffee and plates waiting to go to the table. Sliding glass doors in the oversized primary bedroom open onto a wood deck. Pull up a chair and linger over morning coffee overlooking a backyard full of fruit trees, including longan. Of the two updated bathrooms, one has a double vanity and tub-shower combination. The other pairs a glass-enclosed walk-in shower with olive-green tile and a rainfall shower head. The gated driveway leads to a detached two-car garage with a subpanel and EV charger, served by an upgraded 200-amp main electrical panel. Central heating and air conditioning keep the house comfortable year-round. The garage has potential for an ADU conversion, while the primary bedroom's separate entrance offers a starting point for exploring a junior ADU (JADU). Both conversions are subject to City approval. Saturday might start with a lap around the lakes at nearby Almansor Park, a game on its tennis courts or a tee time up the street at Alhambra Golf Course. By lunch, follow Valley Boulevard to a favorite dumpling spot or stay for hot pot. At TAWA Gateway in neighboring San Gabriel, stop for tea or pick up groceries at 99 Ranch Market. The center's recent first-phase renovation brought new restaurants and tea shops to Valley and Del Mar. Main Street in Downtown Alhambra has more shops and places to eat, and nearby I-10 makes it easy to head farther into the San Gabriel Valley. Back home, set the groceries on the peninsula as the last of the light slips across the living room floor.
