About This Home

As of December 2019

Fabulous Opportunity! Full of charm and personality, this classic Mid-20th Century home is located in the historic neighborhood of Bungalow Heaven. Period character detail can be seen in the coved ceilings, arched doorways, hardwood floors, and newly polished brass hardware. The home's original three bedroom, one bath foot-print remains in-tact. Harking back to a simpler time, the floor-plan includes a living room, dining room, kitchen, and separate laundry room. There is also a 246 Sqft +/- bonus room attached to the garage. Recent TLC comes in the form of fresh interior and exterior paint; beautifully refinished hardwood floors; some updated electrical & plumbing; and new rain gutters. Situated on a sizable lot, there is plenty of room to transform this lovely property into a dream home. (Buyer to confirm with City of Pasadena). Charm isn't limited to inside. Outside, colorful flowers bloom and a sweeping green lawn provides plenty of curb appeal. Ideally located, the property is close to Washington Blvd. and its vibrant multicultural restaurant and shopping scene. Freeways and the Gold Line are also nearby. Be sure to add this exceptional property to your home search. With so much to offer, it is sure to sell fast!
