This 1913 California Craftsman home with an inviting covered porch celebrates the beauty of the period by retaining its timeless architectural character. Within South Pasadena’s blue ribbon school district, this 3-bedroom, 4-bath home offers almost 2,900 square feet of interior living space. In addition, a studio above the detached garage offers an additional 500+ square feet of flexible space. The freshly painted exterior features a designer color palette and several thoughtful interior upgrades have been completed in recent years. Under the careful guidance of an experienced architect, the kitchen was re-crafted to maximize storage and function and incorporate timeless aesthetics with integrated modern touches. The upstairs shared bathroom received a similar revision, and storage was added to the upper landing, making use of neglected space. An original sleeping porch is the perfect place to read a book among the clouds, and the primary suite features an original tiled bathroom brimming with color and character. A back staircase from the primary suite leads to a family room that is kitchen adjacent. The home is replete with period built-ins, hardwood flooring, plate rails, and wainscotting, as well as original windows and doors. The flat yard provides fenced play space, eating areas, and easy access to the huge garage fronted by a covered carport. With convenient proximity to South Pasadena, San Marino, and Alhambra, this house quickly makes you feel at home and will take you on a journey back in time.
