519 E Howard St, Pasadena, CA 91104

A 1912 Craftsman bungalow in the heart of Pasadena, fully renovated while keeping the details that make this style iconic — stone porch pillars, cedar shingle siding in a curated sage, and a covered front porch that hint at the design intention carried throughout. Inside, white oak-toned plank flooring anchors a thoughtfully reimagined floor plan where that earthy palette continues in deliberate, unexpected ways. The open living, dining, and kitchen areas connect naturally, anchored by an electric fireplace with a zellige-style green ceramic tile surround and custom wood mantle — a design thread that runs from the exterior paint to the primary shower, giving the home a rare, cohesive identity. The kitchen carries the same intention forward: white oak shaker cabinetry with brass hardware, a statement custom hood, a harlequin-patterned ceramic tile backsplash in cream and warm sand, quartz countertops, and a breakfast bar island. French doors open directly to the backyard. The primary suite offers a walk-in closet and a refined en suite: dual walnut vanity with gold fixtures, shiplap accent wall, and a floor-to-ceiling green ceramic tile shower with marble bench, recessed niche, rainfall showerhead, and frameless glass enclosure. Two additional bedrooms share a full bath with tub, elongated gray tile surround, and marble countertop. A dedicated laundry room and solar round out the practical details. Behind the detached garage, a legal flex space with vaulted wood-beamed ceiling and french doors works as a home office, studio, or media room. The backyard opens to a spacious deck, lush lawn, and playset under a canopy of palms — moments from Old Town Pasadena, The Rose Bowl, The Playhouse District, and the 210, with Roma Market and neighborhood parks close at hand.
