About This Home

Tucked into Pasadena’s coveted San Rafael Hills, just west of the Arroyo Seco, this exquisitely expanded 1937 character home offers a rare opportunity to own a timeless residence where historic charm and modern confidence exist in perfect harmony. Surrounded by one of Pasadena’s most treasured collections of architectural homes, every detail has been thoughtfully preserved, restored and elevated.

Originally custom-built in 1937, the permitted expansion seamlessly introduced a spacious family room, laundry room and a 2nd level which added two more guest bedrooms, another full bath, plus an extraordinary primary retreat. Unwind beside the 2-way fireplace while soaking in the vintage inspired freestanding soaking tub. The walk-in shower, dual vanity, private water closet cedar-lined walk-in wardrobe complete the luxurious spaces of the primary suite.

Stunning, solid oak creates a seamless connection to the home’s original era. Antique brass door hardware, faucets and fixtures—carefully curated throughout the kitchen, primary bath and much of the home—pay homage to the elite of the 1930s, while the secondary baths celebrate the polished chrome finishes that defined luxury of the period.

Beyond its enduring beauty lies exceptional peace of mind. Extensive improvements include updated foundation bolting and seismic bracing, new(er) roof, rain gutters, dual-pane windows, insulated doors, electrical with grounding and surge protection, new plumbing supply and sewer lines to the street, water softening and purification systems, Top-tier kitchen appliances, updated sinks, faucets and hardware, window shutters, low-maintenance hardscape, designer landscaping, concrete paver drive and walkways, slate patio, Ipe hardwood deck, water heater, ductwork, and two-zone HVAC.

Smart home amenities include Ring cameras, doorbell and lighting, remote-accessible security system, MyQ garage opener with camera, Lutron and Hue lighting controls, and Ecobee smart thermostats.

Enjoy a lifestyle surrounded by nature and recreation with nearby Arroyo Seco trails, Johnston Lake, San Rafael Library and Park, Annandale Golf Club, Brookside Park, Kidspace Children’s Museum, the Rose Bowl and Hahamongna Watershed Park. Excellent charter school options, including Aveson School of Leaders. This home is just 3 minutes from highways: Downtown LA, Burbank, Studio City are easy commutes.

A home that doesn’t simply preserve history—it invites you to become part of it.
