A classic, beguiling, turn-key 1920s Country English positioned on a quiet, tree-lined street in South Pasadena. Spanning 2,200 square feet, the residence pairs preserved architectural detail and a rich sense of history with a floor plan that lives comfortably and easily today. Steps through the front garden lead to the domed entry portico, revealing a gracious formal parlor, a dining room suited for large gatherings, and views straight through to the sunny garden, deck, and pool beyond. The centerpiece of the main floor is an expansive open-concept island kitchen highlighted by professional series appliances, stone countertops, and abundant storage, extending seamlessly into the family room/Great Room and then directly into the private backyard. Two bedrooms with custom built-ins and generous closets, along with a period-style bath, complete the first floor. Upstairs, the primary suite offers a large walk-in closet and bath, plus a fourth bedroom and laundry. Anchored by a monumental old-growth native oak, the grounds present layered outdoor spaces including a vine-covered trellised dining pavilion, lap pool and spa, garden beds, and hardscape designed for gathering and play. A bonus space at the rear of the garage, complete with a 3/4 bath and accessed directly from the yard and pool, provides added flexibility and convenience. Located within the highly regarded South Pasadena Unified School District, including Marengo Elementary, and just moments from Alhambra Park and the shops and restaurants along Fair Oaks Avenue. A sensational package.
