CRAFTSMAN BUNGALOW WITH PRIME LOCATION & ADU POTENTIAL IN THE HEART OF CLAREMONT VILLAGE. Located in a great neighborhood just a couple blocks from the Claremont Colleges, Memorial Park, and Trader Joe's, and a short walk from the Village’s charming shops and cafés, this beautifully preserved Craftsman bungalow offers the best of Claremont living. Perfectly positioned on the desirable east side of Indian Hill Ave, the home blends historic character with thoughtful modern upgrades. Light-filled living spaces with abundant windows showcase this home's rich woodwork and original built-ins. The remodeled kitchen features Viking appliances and stone counters. The remodeled bathrooms, built-in sound system, central heating and air conditioning, copper plumbing, and a retrofitted, reinforced foundation provide comfort and peace of mind. The front porch is a wonderful place to sit and drink your morning coffee while enjoying a view of the San Gabriel Mountains. The professionally designed backyard by HartmanBaldwin is a private sanctuary—ideal for outdoor dining, entertaining, or quiet relaxation—complete with an expansive patio and lush, mature landscaping. The equally charming front and side yards showcase sustainable plantings, mature citrus and oak trees, vegetable garden boxes, and a convenient drip irrigation system. An oversized detached two-car garage and spacious driveway offer generous parking options, while the attached bonus room makes an excellent home office, studio, or creative space. With its large corner lot, bonus room, and flexible layout, this property also presents exceptional potential for an addition or ADU conversion. This is a rare opportunity to own a beautifully maintained piece of Claremont history—updated for modern living and surrounded by the very best the Village has to offer.
