Nearly a year after the Eaton Fire changed Altadena forever, the oak trees still stand 🌿 The debris is gone. The homes are foundations and driveways now. But the trees remain — and after the rains, fresh leaves and grass are rising again. There’s still a quiet lushness here. Still that peace.
It’s what draws the “Alta-Dreamers” in — the misty mornings, the shade, the small-town magic tucked into the foothills of northeast LA.
That’s exactly what happened to Mandy Moore and Taylor Goldsmith back in June 2020, when they toured a 1931 Spanish Colonial Revival on a whim.
“We walked in and were like, ‘Whoa, is this our next move?’”
Five years later — after renovating, rebuilding, and believing — it was. ✨
