2334 S 3rd Ave On nearly half an acre in the coveted flats of Arcadia, just moments from Mayflower Village, sits this expansive Mid-Century time capsule. Built in 1949, this single-level architectural beauty offers four bedrooms and two bathrooms, preserving the character and spirit of its era. Situated on the east side of the street, equidistant from Longden and East Live Oak, the home provides privacy, space, and serenity. The residence is thoughtfully designed in a U-shape around a private front entry and features a large, open floor plan with seamless flow between living spaces. A light-filled living room welcomes you in, complemented by a wood-paneled den with a wet bar, a generous formal dining room, and an ample kitchen with a walk-in pantry. The main house includes a spacious two-car garage. In addition, a separate freestanding three-car garage offers exceptional flexibility ideal for collectors, hobbyists, creative space or a possible ADU. The expansive backyard showcases an enormous pool and spa framed by an outdoor arbor, creating a setting perfect for entertaining or relaxing under the California sky. In its heyday, the property bustled with family, love and creativity. The former owner was a collector of classic automobiles, and that appreciation for craftsmanship is reflected throughout. Character abounds in the original doors, decorative fireplaces, and period cove lighting at the ceiling. Offering an opportunity to update while honoring its original character, this is a rare chance to restore and reimagine a special property on an exceptional lot. Space to grow, Serenity and Privacy.
