    What's special

    Introducing the Wellborn House. Likened to a 'working man's Gamble House,' this landmark 1908 Craftsman is now available as a stunning, authentic representation of a simpler, elegant era in turn-of-the-century Southern California.Following a storied history, this pedigreed property underwent a historically sensitive, comprehensive restoration and renovation 12 years ago. With the guidance and oversight of Pasadena Heritage, no expense was spared during this multi-year labor of love to return the home to its pristine, original 1908 condition while seamlessly integrating fully upgraded modern systems.Inside, exceptional craftsmanship is on display at every turn in this 3-bedroom, 1-bath home. A gorgeous cook's kitchen features premium vintage appliances and an amazing custom artisan linoleum floor, while beautiful quarter-sawn oak floors run throughout. Original woodwork shines with a classic hardwood built-in buffet in the formal dining room, and a historic built-in secretary desk anchors the west bedroom. The inviting living room features a wood-burning fireplace adorned with exquisite, original Batchelder tiles. Outside, a matching detached garage completes the property layout.Adding incredible value, the property is currently under an active MILLS ACT contract. This highly coveted agreement is fully transferable to the new buyer, offering significant yearly savings with exceptionally low property taxes. This is a rare opportunity to own a meticulously preserved, turn-key piece of Pasadena's rich architectural history. Come and experience this beautiful residence!
