1303 Milan Ave South Pasadena, CA 91030

Situated among the Milan Avenue estates on just over half an acre, this magnificent brick colonial home, historically known as the Clement R. Bird House, exudes both classic grandeur and the warmth of a truly livable home in which every square foot of land and home provides purpose, beauty, and a seamless transition between indoor and outdoor living. Elegant formal living spaces with spectacular elongated casement windows and doors frame the parklike setting from each room, flowing into inviting, comfortable porches, sitting areas, rooftop vistas, and gathering spaces surrounded by gorgeous mature trees and landscaping. Designed by local architect Frank D. Harrington in classic 1920s colonial revival style, this home beckons with a large formal living room, donning elegant crown molding, an oversized fireplace with decorative, vintage tile and adjacent arches that flank the dining room, den and office. The spacious kitchen opens to a large breakfast room, both spaces serving as the heart of this home with full size fridge and freezer and walk-in pantry, leading to a large California basement with wine cellar. As unique as the home is, the grounds are also an absolute treasure, complete with beautiful lawns, expansive pool, pavilion, sport court, and playhouse. Owned and lovingly enjoyed by the same family for 57 years, this very special home offers an incredible opportunity for its next stewards to reinterpret and appreciate this exquisite property for decades to come.
