About 8814 Longden
Beautifully reimagined and unlike a typical remodel, 8814 Longden Avenue pairs an extensive renovation with a flexible layout on an approximately 8,800-square-foot lot within Temple City’s award-winning school district. The approximately 1,972-square-foot main residence offers four bedrooms and three bathrooms, complemented by a remodeled, 160-square-foot detached laundry room.
An open layout connects the living, dining, and family areas for comfortable everyday living and entertaining. The kitchen features elegant cabinetry and countertops, new appliances, and a 36-inch range beneath a striking statement hood. Upstairs, the primary suite opens to a private balcony overlooking the spacious backyard.
Renovated from the framing outward, the home features new drywall, new plumbing, complete new electrical, a 200-amp panel, and new mechanical and HVAC systems. Double-pane windows, solid-core doors, 14mm waterproof LSPC flooring, and high-grade fixtures complement the fresh interior and exterior paint. The garage is prepared for EV charging, while the new driveway provides generous parking. Front and rear landscaping have all new irrigation and drip lines installed to ensure luscious year-around greenery.
Potential for two ADUs adds another dimension to the property. Approximately 3,000 square feet of rear lawn offers space to explore a detached ADU of up to 1,000 square feet, potentially accommodating three bedrooms and two bathrooms. The garage and laundry room provide 488 square feet of existing building area for a possible one-bedroom, one-bath conversion. Subject to city approval, these concepts could create two additional residences totaling up to 1,488 square feet of added living space.
Convenient to dining, shopping, and entertainment in Temple City, Arcadia, San Gabriel, and nearby Pasadena, this thoughtfully renewed property combines contemporary comfort, versatile space, and future possibilities.
