Pasadena, CA 91104

This remarkable 1912 Craftsman is a jewel: open, inviting and in near-original restored condition. A fine example of period architecture, it was featured on the Pasadena Heritage 2009 Craftsman Weekend tour and published in American Bungalow magazine. Its full-length front porch, sheltered by a pair of stately cedars and a broad overhang, leads into the sprawling main floor. There, both the central hearth and the original woodwork connect the living room to the elegant library, formal dining room and fourth bedroom. Upstairs are three spacious bedrooms with walk-in closets, and a full bathroom. The kitchen, with service porch and half bathroom, leads out to the expansive yard, a legacy of Pasadena's early years. Original details -- hardware, hardwood floors, built-in cabinetry, gas/electric fixtures -- are found throughout. Modern updates include new wiring, seismic bolting, rebuilt chimney and central heat & air. A rare opportunity to own a very distinctive Craftsman home.
