    Situated on a beautiful tree-lined street in the sought-after Arroyo Seco neighborhood, this quintessential Pasadena treasure has been beautifully restored and lovingly remodeled, and sits on almost a half-acre of professionally-landscaped grounds. Nestled behind a tall privacy hedge, this stately home, one of the first in the area, features an excellent floor plan with spacious rooms that exude the timeless charm and architectural character of a bygone era, coupled with modern systems desired by today's discerning buyer. A sunny front porch welcomes guests into a formal foyer and opens to grand public rooms with large south-facing windows that capture greenery views and plenty of light. Boasting high ceilings and hardwood floors, the handsome living room features a fireplace and garden vistas. The formal dining room lends itself to both large-scale and intimate gatherings. A beautifully-remodeled chef's kitchen showcases a large center island with built-in bar stools, stainless steel appliances, Quartz counter tops, abundant cabinets and an adjacent breakfast room with glass doors, all open to the glorious and lush backyard. A cozy library is perfect for relaxation and family activities. A delightful corner office, a downstairs bedroom with an adjacent bathroom, and a darling powder room, complete the main level of this special home. The striking staircase, accented by a lovely picture window, leads to five additional light-filled bedrooms with coved ceilings, including a lovely primary bedroom suite open to an adjacent study, three remodeled bathrooms with Carrara marble, plus an upstairs den with a balcony overlooking the backyard and mountain views. Perfect for outdoor enjoyment and grand-scale entertaining, the spectacular park-like yard is framed by mature trees, and boasts a huge grassy lawn, an inviting pool and spa area, and expansive terraces perfect for alfresco dining and outdoor relaxation.
