THE INCLUDED ADJACENT LOT W ITS LARGE FLAT PAD, DRIVEWAY ACCESS, AND MAJESTIC VIEWS IS JUST BEGGING TO HAVE OTHER STRUCTURES BUILT UPON IT!The classic SoCal citrus-farm-inspired front garden features fruit trees and drought-tolerant shrubs.Rich character details abound in the dramatic contours of the light-filled living room, boasting high ceilings, casement windows, original oak flooring, built-ins, and an impressive, oversized picture window that exquisitely frames the verdant view. The formal dining room, with its handsome built-in buffet cabinet, wainscoting, and wall of French doors that beckon to the side garden, leads to the bright kitchen, featuring butcher block countertops, cheerful vinyl flooring, a vintage stove, stainless steel appliances, and a walk-in pantry. A charming sitting room, laundry room, and half bathroom complete the spacious first floor.Upstairs, the 3 gorgeously sunlit bedrooms showcase romantic lines, built-in bookcases and storage nooks, and a shared tiled bathroom. There is a second bathroom adjacent to the master bedroom, currently being utilized as a storage room, that could probably be restored and incorporated into an en suite.The split-level back patio leads the way to the private, massive, Dr Seuss-themed yard focused on plants with dramatic, whimsical structures and a menagerie of fruit trees (orange, tangerine, lime, lemon, apricot, persimmon, loquat, a large white sapote, young apple, and two different varieties of pomegranate!) Featuring a towering dracaena draco, Australian and South African native shrubs, long river rock planter ideal for an herb garden, multiple entertaining areas, flat play yard, and not another home in sight, this yard is made for fresh cut blooms, views, and star gazing. At the end of the winding rear driveway sits the large parking pad, 2-car garage with EV charger, and adjacent lot. In the desirable Hermon enclave, on the South Pasadena border, adjacent to Mission Street, Fresco Community Market, Hermon Dog Park, hiking trails, and the Gold Line, the location cannot be beat!
