Constructed in 1927 at the North end of Pasadena's historic Prospect Park on the Arroyo's edge, this single level French Norman inspired residence was designed by the architectural firm of Marston and Maybury under the watchful eye of Harold V. Ogden. Winner of an AIA award of honor that very year, this well-built and much loved residence has a tremdous amount of historic documentation, along with a significant degree of original design elements still intact. Configured as a farmhouse residence with barns attached to the sides, the result is an unassuming residence with a walled entry courtyard at the front of the home and a comfortalbe layout with varying ceiling heights and large scaled rooms on the interior. There are 2 sizeable bedroom suites on one side, while the guest suite , eat in kitchen and exemplary butler's pantry comprise the other. The large living room and dining rooms open the a shade covered patio and sprawling flat back yard. The gardens are professionally landscaped, showcasing a variety of semi-arid plantings accented by mature trees. The late afternoon breeze is a near-guarantee, and the birdsong is profuse. This property has a 2-car attached garage with automatic doors and provides direct interior access to the kitchen. There is a bonus gardener's bath and nearly 500 square foot basement with exterior access. 1125 Armada Drive has an enduring charm and after 34 years of privacy is ready to be seen.
