About This Home

Welcome to this charming 1941 single-level traditional, nicely positioned above street level on a generous 10,648 square foot lot in a coveted South Pasadena neighborhood, known for its grand turn-of-the-century residences. Spanning 1,427 square feet, this three-bedroom, two-bathroom home seamlessly blends character with modern potential.As you enter, you'll note subtle Art Deco influences, including the porte cochere's curved roofline and the front entrance adorned with glass bricks. Inside, the spacious, sunlit living room features hardwood floors, a classic fireplace, casement windows, and a decorative ceiling design, which is also reflected in the adjacent formal dining room, complete with charming built-in cabinets. Both rooms open to a large brick patio and rear yard, making it ideal for entertaining. The eat-in kitchen is centrally located just off the dining room with convenient connection to the main hallway and laundry room area as well as a half bath. Two spacious bedrooms are found off the hallway and offer hardwood flooring and views to the front yard. An original four-piece full bathroom, kept in good condition, is also situated in the hallway for easy access. The third bedroom is separated nicely and situated at the rear of the home, just off the kitchen area, providing privacy and potential for expansion. A strong value add is the extra-large lot with a detached two-car garage set far back on the property, creating an ideal canvas for ADU potential or your dream backyard. Imagine the possibilities! In addition, the home offers a newer water heater and approximately ten-year old roof. Enjoy a high walkability score as well as close proximity to beloved restaurants, coffee shops, specialty stores, and the South Pasadena award-winning schools - just blocks from the middle and high school. Lovingly maintained by its owners for over fifty-five years this home is ready to receive new love and enjoyment - giving its new owners the chance to realize their dreams in idyllic South Pas.
