A beautifully restored and thoughtfully updated Spanish Colonial Revival, 1200 Morada Place blends timeless architectural character with elegant modern updates. The home was built in 1926 by esteemed architect John Danley Atchison who built several homes in Pasadena, Altadena and Beverly Hills. From the moment you arrive, the fantastic curb appeal makes an impression--an inviting entry framed by classic saltillo pavers sets the tone for what lies beyond. Inside, hardwood floors run throughout the home, leading to a dramatic step-down living room with exposed beam ceilings and a stunning plaster fireplace. French doors flanking the fireplace open directly to the expansive backyard, creating a seamless indoor-outdoor flow that's ideal for both entertaining and everyday living. Through traditional arched doorways, the large formal dining room opens to the updated kitchen, where white quartzite countertops, stainless steel appliances, and a Viking range combine elegance and functionality. Every detail feels intentional, honoring the home's Spanish roots while elevating it for today's lifestyle. Upstairs, a generous primary suite complete with its own fireplace and beautiful mountain views feels serene and sunfilled. A second en-suite bedroom, a spacious third bedroom, and a large hall bathroom complete the upper level, offering comfort and flexibility for family or guests. The oversized backyard is a true highlight--featuring a beautifully redone pool, an expansive grassy area perfect for gardening or play, and ample space to accommodate a future guest house or ADU. A charming covered loggia overlooks the pool and includes an additional bathroom with convenient garage access, making outdoor living effortless year-round. This incredible property is not just classic California, it's classic Altadena.
