About This Home

As of April 2023

Built by Norwood & DeLonge in 1963, Residence 20 is a RARE opportunity to own an architectural garden home that offers the feeling of a single-family residence and is only one the few homes in the community with direct access to its own attached 2-car garage. Nestled off Pasadena's historic "Millionaire's Row", this single-level mid-century gem incorporates Asian-influenced architecture and a zen-inspiring design. Upon entering the private front courtyard, you immediately sense the serenity, sheltered by a massive olive tree. Inside, at the heart of this magical home, is a wraparound open-air atrium that floods the entire space with natural light through the floor-to-ceiling glass walls. Remodeled in 2022 for modern convenience, the reimagined living space opens seamlessly to peaceful views and tranquil sounds of flowing water. A wood-burning fireplace warms up the spacious living room and dining room, leading into the fully equipped eat-in kitchen, breakfast nook, and access to an exterior courtyard. Dual bedroom suites flank the atrium, with both en-suite bathrooms featuring skylights that provide abundant light. Upgrades include new hardwood flooring, designer landscaping, and a Tesla charging station, to name a few. Additional storage space in garage. The community includes a sundeck and swimming pool. Centrally located just moments from Arlington Gardens, Old Town Pasadena, Norton Simon Museum, The Huntington Library, Huntington Hospital, and so much more. OFFERS DUE THURSDAY, 3/16 BY 5:00PM.
