Description

First time on the market! Architectural Gem with Innovative Features and Mountain Views: Nestled in a beautifully manicured neighborhood of Northeast Pasadena, lined with sidewalks and mature landscaping, this custom-designed home blends timeless style with functional flexibility. Elevated from the street, the home combines aspects of mid-century and prairie architecture, including a low pitch roof with extended eaves, natural materials, and floor-to-ceiling windows that frame views of Mt. Wilson. Step inside to discover a spacious living room, anchored by a stacked stone fireplace, with a reading corner and a bench seat. Natural light floods the space through two full walls of sliding glass doors, bringing the outdoors in. The innovative floorplan creates an open flow. A folding wall of ribbon mahogany allows the family room to be a distinct room or to connect seamlessly with the dining room, living room, and patio to create an expansive area for entertaining. The wrap-around patio, designed by an award-winning landscape contractor, extends the living space outdoors. In the family room, built-in wood cabinetry frames an area for a piano, large screen TV or desk. A wide window with shutters is graced by a window bench. The family room is connected to a full bath, has a closet, and can serve as a fourth bedroom. It has a private entrance through the gated side yard.The three bedrooms are secluded from the hub of the home. One is near the entry and is perfect as a quiet home office. The oversized main bathroom offers dual sinks, substantial storage, a separate shower, and a tub for relaxing. Additional highlights include a second dining room in the kitchen, a laundry room, a detached two-car garage, a storage room, and a workshop—ideal for hobbies. Centrally located just minutes from the 210 Freeway, local shopping, and dining, this home is a rare expression of historical beauty and intelligent design.
