Description

Tucked along a picturesque tree-lined street in the coveted neighborhood of North Pasadena Heights sits this enchanting 1922 Craftsman. This home illustrates the wonderful blend of architectural integrity and effortless California living. A lush front lawn and expansive sitting porch are both inviting and ideal spots to enjoy the neighborhood. Inside, the attention to detail is showcased throughout: rich hardwood floors underfoot, a stunning brick fireplace, beautifully preserved original built-ins, and thoughtful millwork that speaks to a time when homes were built to last. Natural light filters gently through the abundant windows creating an airy yet grounded atmosphere. The kitchen is spacious yet quaint and features a cozy built-in breakfast nook with a large pull-down dining table and built-in benches. Each bedroom is roomy and the back bedroom wonderfully captures the verdant and private landscape of the dreamy backyard. Out back, a rare expansive flat yard offers endless possibilities: room to entertain, spend afternoons harvesting the bounty off the fruit trees, or simply unwind beneath the shade of towering trees that create a serene, park-like setting. Whether hosting weekend gatherings or enjoying a quiet afternoon with a book, this outdoor space feels both private and generous. A separate studio/office provides valuable flex space: ideal for working from home, creative pursuits, guest overflow, or possibly an ADU conversion. It's a versatile extension of the property that adapts to the way you live. All of this is just minutes from neighborhood favorites like Millie's Cafe, Lavender & Honey, and Woon - perfect for brunch dates, a delicious lunch or dinner, or just meeting friends. This home truly epitomizes old-world charm in a pastoral setting.
