This elegant colonial set back from the tree lined street in an ideal Pasadena location is an eye catcher and has charm that exudes throughout the home and property. Walking up the front path to the home, one is struck by the characteristics that make this an authentic Colonial including the front door in the middle of the home with two multi-paned windows on either side of the door, the columns on both sides of the door that support the covering over the front porch and the symmetry of the louvered shutters that surround the four rectangular windows on the first floor and the four main multi-paned windows on the 2nd floor. Walking through the red door into this nearly 2000 square foot two story home, one is struck by the hardwood floors that glisten throughout the first floor and staircase. The formal living room is filled with light as it enters through the windows and the sliding glass door that leads to the back patio that overlooks the grounds on this expansive property. Base molding and a gas fireplace are featured in the living room as well. Off the entry hall to the east is the oversized formal dining room with window & base molding and a graceful built-in cabinet for displaying one’s china and other pieces. The dining room connects to the clean, light & bright kitchen with its own built-in cabinets and shelving which leads into a quaint breakfast nook with several multi-paned windows allowing light to permeate the room. The downstairs half bath is situated off the breakfast nook as well as an enclosed laundry porch. Entrance to the California basement which provides great storage space and access to the crawl space is accessed off of the downstairs bathroom. The stairwell directly behind the front door leads to the upstairs hallway that bisects the middle of the 2nd floor which is so common in the symmetrical design of Colonial Architecture. Upstairs are three bedrooms and one full bath. The two bedrooms on the north side of the home are both oversized and feature walk-in closets, base molding and five windows filling the rooms with light. The third bedroom is ideally suited as an office or children’s room with an abundance of built-in shelving. The views out the windows in the front look up towards the San Gabriel Mountains and the back windows overlook the expansive grounds of the property. The back yard is an oasis of peace from the busyness of life in Southern California. Whether looking for a garden to grow, lemons to pick for freshly squeezed lemonade, a covered area for potting, or grassy areas for throwing a ball or simply gathering outside in the sunshine of Pasadena this backyard is filled with opportunity. An added bonus of the property is that there is access off of Temple Aly as well. This property was built in 1922 with love, care & craftsmanship and has been lovingly maintained and cared for by the same family for decades and now the opportunity is here for the next fortunate owners to make this their very own.
