Set behind a gated, extended driveway on a generous 9,342-square-foot lot, this beautifully maintained Pasadena residence offers a rare combination of privacy, space, and timeless character -- offered for the very first time in 35 years.The main house welcomes you with original 1.25' hardwood floors and handsome saltillo tile, a pairing that speaks to the home's authentic Pasadena roots. Two bedrooms, each with its own en-suite bath, anchor the main residence, complemented by a convenient hallway powder room for guests. The primary suite has been freshened with new carpet and offers generous closet space, while recessed lighting throughout and built-in speakers in the living and family rooms lend an easy, elevated ambience to everyday living.Step outside to a lovely covered porch overlooking a freshly landscaped front garden with new sod and automatic sprinklers -- the kind of curb appeal that stops traffic. The rear yard mirrors that same care, with new grass and built-in speakers extending the indoor-outdoor lifestyle Pasadena is known for.A detached garage and back house add exceptional flexibility, featuring a third bedroom, an additional full bathroom, in-unit laundry, and beautifully built-out cabinetry in the two-car garage -- ideal for guests, extended family, or a private studio.Thoughtful, recent upgrades add peace of mind for years to come: a new roof (2025), new water heater (2026), and central HVAC throughout.Location is equally exceptional -- just a couple of miles from Caltech and Pasadena City College, with same-street access to the 210 Freeway for effortless commuting.Rarely does a home of this character, scale, and pedigree come to market. A true legacy property awaiting its next chapter.
