On a shady knoll in Pasadena’s coveted Linda Vista neighborhood, this circa-1950 Traditional home is equal parts classic and contemporary. Here, the familiar lines of a picket fence, covered entry, gable roof and bay window are complemented by character rich elements: board and batten wood siding, turned wood front post, and a weathervane-topped cupola over the attached garage. Charm and curb appeal at the front usher visitors to relaxed elegance inside — the front door opens to reveal peg in groove hardwood floors flowing into a generous formal living room with open-beam shiplap ceiling, decorative fireplace, cased arches, and built-in details. The wall of windows is a showstopper, presenting a stunning vista in every shade of green in the foreground, and mountains in the distance. Spacious and light-filled, the scale of the living room would suit a party of one or twenty with comfort, just as in the contiguous kitchen and great room. With dining and family room spaced featuring another soaring vaulted ceiling, plentiful windows and french doors to the adjoining patio, this home truly offers indoor-outdoor lifestyle. The kitchen is convenient and stylish, with generous marble-topped island, high-end stainless steel appliances, custom inset cabinetry and walk-in pantry, not to mention the adjacent laundry/mud room, half bath and direct access to the two-car garage – what a dream! Three light-filled bedrooms with hardwood flooring and dual pane windows, plus full bath with vintage style hexagon tile floor and beadboard paneling, complete the main level of the home. Downstairs, find the spacious primary suite with vaulted tray ceiling, clerestory windows, full bath with separate shower and tub, dual vanity and walk-in closet. The best feature? French doors open directly to the back yard with pool and spa — ideal for a quiet early morning swim, or evening soak under the stars. The fully landscaped property includes lush green lawns, fragrant lavender, rosemary, blooming roses and vibrant shrubs, with mature hedges providing privacy and framing the scenery. The backyard, pool, spa, patio and generous deck afford endless opportunity to enjoy the outdoors privately and to entertain, with the Rose Bowl, Old Town Pasadena and myriad cultural offerings just minutes away. This is a wonderful home in an unbeatable neighborhood.
