About This Home
As of April 2025Discover this exquisite 1928 French Revival home nestled in the coveted Casa Grande neighborhood - a private, gated sanctuary where historic charm meets sophisticated modern living. Thoughtfully updated while preserving its architectural integrity, this move-in-ready residence offers an inviting blend of elegance, comfort, and functionality.
This beautiful home features three light-filled bedrooms, each with its own beautifully designed ensuite bathroom—an uncommon luxury that adds to its desirability. A charming guest powder room further enhances the home’s thoughtful design.
The expansive living room captivates with a dramatic vaulted ceiling, an original wood-burning fireplace, and sweeping mountain views. Rich details such as hand-hewn beams, American solid white oak floors, vintage hand-forged iron chandeliers, graceful archways, many original plaster walls, and soaring 9.5-foot ceilings in several areas highlight the home’s distinctive character.
The bright and airy kitchen is a masterful blend of practicality and beauty, featuring a 48" Viking cooktop, wine fridge, farmhouse sink, and Carrera marble countertops. Open-concept shelving, limestone flooring, and a spacious island enhance the kitchen’s rustic yet refined aesthetic.
The updated basement provides abundant storage and is perfectly suited for a wine cellar. French doors from the expansive 400+ sq. ft. family room open to a beautifully designed outdoor retreat, complete with a gas fireplace, sink, and ample counter space for al fresco entertaining.
Adding to the home’s versatility, a detached 400+ sq. ft. bonus room boasts a soaring 15-foot beamed ceiling, and a charming candle-lit fireplace—ideal as a guest retreat, private office, or creative studio.
Surrounded by privacy hedges and custom iron gates, the landscaped grounds feature gravel walkways, a lush rear lawn, and tranquil tiled fountains in both the front and backyard—offering an idyllic escape for relaxation and entertaining.
Modern upgrades include updated electrical wiring, mostly new plumbing, a professionally cleaned attic with brand-new insulation, a tankless water heater, and an efficient HVAC system for year-round comfort.
Ideally situated just minutes from The Huntington Library & Gardens, the Arboretum, Cal Tech, Victory Park, and the Pasadena Farmers Market. This exceptional home offers a rare fusion of understated elegance and contemporary convenience.
