    What's special

    Nestled along one of Linda Vista's most picturesque streets, this beautifully reimagined French Country Revival blends European charm with sophisticated modern living. A storybook garden, winding brick pathways, and lush landscaping create a magical introduction to the nearly 5,000-square-foot residence.Filled with natural light, the home features soaring wood-beam ceilings, rich hardwood floors, and beautifully curated finishes throughout. Gracious formal living and dining rooms lead to an inviting great room anchored by a spectacular chef's kitchen with custom designer cabinetry and top-of-the-line countertops, state-of-the-art appliances, a waterfall island, and a sunlit breakfast alcove. The adjoining family room, complete with a fireplace and built-in shelving, opens seamlessly to the gardens, pool, spa, and beyond. There is a large entertainer's butler pantry in the center for optimal use, and a ground-floor laundry room with a sleek, contemporary design and ample space for a large family. The flexible floor plan offers five bedrooms and four-and-a-half baths, including three bedrooms on the main level, one of which is being used as a handsome library office. Upstairs, the luxurious primary suite features vaulted ceilings, a fireplace, a sitting area, three expansive, oversized walk-in closets with beautiful full-length mirrors and dressers, and a spa-inspired bath. All of which overlooks the rear private oasis. Set on a sprawling 14,000+ square foot lot, the enchanting grounds include mature fruit trees, multiple entertaining patios, and a sparkling pool and spa with a new filtration system and a dedicated changing room and bath. Ideally located near the North Arroyo, Rose Bowl, Aquatic Center, and ArtCenter College of Design, this exceptional property offers a rare blend of privacy, character, and convenience just minutes from Old Pasadena and the best of Pasadena.
