About This Home

As of June 2022

A turn-of-the-century gem, this 1887 Victorian, located in one of the most coveted of Pasadena's neighborhoods, is just steps from the famed Tournament of Roses parade route. Featuring 3-bedrooms and 3-bathrooms, the home is light-filled throughout with hardwood and tile flooring, an updated kitchen with an adjacent family room, and a spacious primary suite featuring a tiled bath with a separate tub and shower; the amenities abound. The public spaces are large and feature much of the architectural integrity of the Victorian movement. A lovely private brick patio and pot garden sit at the back of the property, while a charming front porch is a perfect respite to enjoy the professionally designed garden, rolling green lawn and beautiful tree-lined street and neighborhood.
