[ SOLD for $420,000 on 7/11/2018 ] Location! Location! Location! This 1956 charming pool home, with 1257 sq ft, has 2 bedrooms and 1.5 bathrooms, and is in the beautiful City of Alta Loma, which is part of Rancho Cucamonga, situated at the foothills of the San Gabriel Mountains just south of the 210 Freeway.
This home is a little dated, but completely functional, with no HOA, and right next to Alta Loma High School (recently certified a gold ribbon school by the California Department of Education). Four of Rancho Cucamonga’s public high schools, including Alta Loma, earned the Silver distinction in a 2015 ranking of the nation’s high schools by U.S. News & World Report.
With the central air only about 5 yrs old, there’s also two comfortably sized bedrooms, with the back one displaying a built-in desk and lots of cabinetry. Charming vintage bathroom with separate shower and tub, and a half bath off the garage.
The kitchen is original yet functional with dishwasher, microwave, gas stove, and included refrigerator. And the dining area’s sliding doors lead to the huge bonus room off the back of the home which is great for year-round entertaining. Imagine the enormous family gatherings!
The lot size is 14,160 sq ft with gated RV parking, and situated on a cul-de-sac, and is completely fenced-in with 3 sides of privacy block wall.
There’s also an in-ground pool that hasn’t been used in a years, but with a little TLC, could be up and running just in time for summer! With mountain views surrounding this lovely neighborhood, you’re walking distance to Red Hill park, and also close to the 210, 10 and 15 Freeways.

Alternate view of front bedroom with view into the hallway which leads to bathroom and other bedroom.
Bathroom with separate shower and tub, as well as tile floor and tile counters, with ample storage.
Indoor laundry room with plenty of overhead cabinetry.
HUGE screened-in bonus room off the kitchen. There are windows to install during wintertime to maintain a comfortable temperature year round. Pool table not included.
Even with the bonus room built onto the back of the home, there is still plenty of room for kids and pets to play. Block wall around the perimeter of backyard was built with a cement footing, and rebar in every other cylinder (this wall should outlast the apocalypse).
Pool has been empty for quite a few years; pool specialist stated that as long as there are no leaks (leak detection test costs about $200-$300), and equipment is running fine, with a re-plaster, the pool could be up and running for less than $2,000. Of course the cost will increase if new tile, new equipment, and new coping are desired and/or required.
Old-timer 2-car garage with lots of nooks and crannies and shelves, as well as a half bath (open door next to vertical shelves) which is super convenient for someone who spends lots of time in this space.
