About This Home
As of May 2025Sold before processing. Entered for comps purposes only. Nestled on a picturesque, tree-lined street in the coveted Prospect Park Historic District, this distinguished Spanish estate sits on a rare half-acre of lush, park-like grounds. Originally built in the 1920s, the home seamlessly blends period charm with thoughtful modern upgrades, offering elegant and comfortable California living in one of Pasadena's most prestigious neighborhoods. A sweeping circular driveway and an intimate courtyard welcome you into a gracious entry hall, leading to an impressive step-down living room adorned with beamed ceilings, a classic fireplace, and a dramatic wall of glass that frames views of the verdant backyard. Original wrought iron details, French doors, and vintage iron casement windows echo the craftsmanship of a bygone era, while a cozy library and formal dining room offer tranquil vistas of the mature, landscaped grounds. The kitchen has been tastefully updated with Cle tile, quartz countertops, stainless steel appliances, a custom built-in coffee bar, and is complemented by a sunlit laundry room that opens to a serene side courtyard. The main level also features two generous bedrooms and a full bath. Upstairs, there are three additional bedrooms and two full baths, all enjoying treetop views and abundant natural light. Designed for effortless indoor-outdoor living, there is an expansive Saltillo tile patio that is perfect for alfresco dining, lounging, and entertaining friends. The patio overlooks a sprawling lawn, newly built saltwater pool and spa, and a professional-grade bocce ball court with custom overhead lighting for nighttime play. A two car garage, ample storage, and outdoor pool bathroom complete the property. Other recent upgrades include new two zone HVAC, entirely new plumbing including a new tankless water heater and reverse osmosis water system, entirely new electrical with intelligent home capabilities, a newly refinished roof, new washer & dryer, new lighting and bathroom fixtures throughout, refinished hardwood floors, a stunning zio & sons raw zellige tiled entryway, and new interior paint.
