About This Home
Down a winding drive off of impressive Arden Road, you will find yourself coming up on a jaw-dropping, historic Mediterranean Villa surrounded by stately pines. Reminiscent of Southern Living, you are welcomed with a good old fashioned stunning screened in front porch to sit and sip your coffee while looking out at your rose garden. Vintage paned windows line the entire front of the expansive living room. This beauty was once the carriage house to the famed Arden Villa, and it, like Arden Villa, by the highly revered Pasadena architects Marston and Van Pelt. This property is comprised of three separate living areas. It is fabulous as is and would be a magical multigenerational compound. Each of the three charming dwellings within the home has its own entrance from the outside, two bedrooms, living rooms and decorative fireplaces. But imagine turning it into your own Pasadena Estate with 6 bedrooms and quite the architectural pedigree! The private backyard could not be more picturesque with a gorgeous pool, separate laundry, two car garage and even a little art studio! This one of a kind carriage house has hosted movie stars and famed musicians throughout the years, as part of its legacy. Come take a look for yourself at this rare architectural offering, full of possibilities, in a dream location on prestigious Arden Road, close to Cal Tech, The Langham Hotel, The Huntington Library, and all the great shops and restaurants on South Lake Ave. Take advantage of this special opportunity!
