Alhambra Tract

Alhambra's first tract, in the northeast of the city, was platted by founding developer Benjamin Wilson; the Victorian Italianate home of his daughter and son-in-law, James de Barth and Maria Shorb, still stands here.

Ramona Park Tract

Established in the early 1900s in southern Alhambra, this tract's Arts and Crafts homes were designed by architects John and Daniel Althouse, contemporaries and colleagues of the Greene and Greene brothers.

Wuest-Bushnell Tract

On Alhambra's northwest tip, this tract was marketed by railroad magnate Henry Huntington in the early 20th century as a 'streetcar suburb'; Arts and Crafts is the dominant architectural style.

Published cost and financing inputs

Use the facts the local samples establish. A monthly payment or ownership total requires the property, loan, tax bill, insurance quote and your own reserves.

The same eye, as an actual inspection

Reading a listing from the desk is not an inspection. When you are under contract, the house still has to be walked — roof to slab, by an inspector.
