About This Home
As of February 2024Enjoy living within the timeless character of this Spanish-style home located in the highly prized Marengo Area neighborhood on a picturesque street, lined w/century old estates. A private oasis greets you through the front courtyard gate, which is graced by flowers, plants, and tree hanging fruit. Rotunda entry, complete w/curved staircase & wrought iron railing. Beautifully refinished hardwood floors and saltillo-style tile create an old-world architectural statement and foundation for the home's design. The dramatic foyer opens to the main living areas: The Step-down Formal Living Room features a high-beam vaulted ceiling, romantic wall sconces, and French doors that flank the stone-tiled fireplace. Enter the step-down Formal Dining Room, with beam ceilings, bathed in natural sunlight from the French door and windows facing south. The gourmet kitchen features a Viking stove, sleek manufactured quartz countertops, ample storage space, and a large picture window to view the backyard. On the main floor are 2 bedrooms, (one with a Murphy bed), a full bath, a separate laundry room and a powder room. Upstairs is the primary bedroom, a haven of tranquility, with its own balcony, a large walk-in closet, and 2nd closet. The 4th bedroom offers a peaceful retreat, with 2 closets for ample storage and a lovely balcony overlooking the front courtyard. Between the 2 upstairs bedrooms is a full bath with a separate shower. The backyard with a patio area presents the perfect setting for relaxation and entertainment. Enjoy alfresco dining on the patio, host summer gatherings, or simply unwind in the shade of mature trees and take a dip in the hot tub. Conveniently located close by is the much-loved, neighborhood park called Eddy Park. Known for its highly-rated school district, South Pasadena schools are nearby. Situated in the coveted South Pasadena community, this residence offers convenient access to local amenities and attractions. Only three blocks away, the South Pasadena, San Marino YMCA is a loved exercise mecca and place for community involvement. Rich architectural details and a prime location are the hallmarks of this lovely home!
