Historic Charm Meets Village Living in the Heart of Claremont! Tucked beneath the canopy of Claremont’s signature mature trees, this 1910 two-story home captures the soul of the Claremont Village—where community and convenience blend seamlessly. Just a short stroll to Memorial Park, the Village's shops, restaurants, and farmers' market, the renowned Claremont Colleges, and top-rated public schools, this location defines walkable living in Southern California’s most beloved "City of Trees and degrees." Step inside a historic Dutch door to a warm and welcoming formal living and dining room where built-in cabinetry and hardwood floors speak to the home’s timeless character. Just off the dining room, you’ll find a dedicated office—perfect for remote work or quiet reading. The den off the kitchen offers a second flexible space to unwind or entertain, while the kitchen itself pairs vintage charm with modern updates—granite counters, stainless steel appliances, and a classic tile backsplash. Upstairs, three bedrooms feature charming shutters that invite in soft natural light while maintaining privacy. Two full bathrooms offer both tubs and showers, while a half bath downstairs adds everyday convenience. Out back, a spacious deck invites al fresco dining under the shade of mature trees, including your very own orange tree. Across the enclosed and expansive garden is a detached 329 square foot studio with wall to wall bookshelves - ideal as a home office, creative space, or work-out studio. Homes like this rarely come available in the Claremont Village. With a location that offers a front-row seat to community events and walkable lifestyle, plus views of the San Gabriel Mountains, this home blends original details with thoughtful updates. This property is as special as the neighborhood it sits in.
