About This Home
Tucked away in coveted Southwest Pasadena's Lower Arroyo Seco Historic District, this spectacular estate is a rare masterwork of history and modern luxury. Designed by noted architect Charles W. Buchanan for Joseph S. Glasscock (early partner of A.C. Vroman), the home has been meticulously updated to preserve its timeless architectural integrity while delivering 21st-century living. Since its last sale, every room of this amazing home has been reimagined, redesigned and renovated over the past year and a half. A picturesque front porch, tranquil stone fountain and private hedged and gated front yard set a serene tone. Inside, the main level is an entertainer's dream, featuring an open living room with a stately fireplace and elegant wainscoting that flows effortlessly into the formal dining area. The sun drenched, airy, refreshed kitchen with stainless appliances, a wine cooler, stone countertops, and a butler's pantry, serves as the social heart of the home, complete with a substantial center island and breakfast banquette. French doors open to an expansive deck, perfect for alfresco dining.Upstairs, find four bedrooms and three baths, including a luxurious primary suite with a spacious walk in closet, a newly redesigned primary bath plus a second ensuite bedroom. The versatile, walk out lower level offers a casual hangout space with extensive storage and a half bath. Outside, the artfully designed, ultra-private gardens wrap around a spectacular backyard oasis with fruit trees and an outdoor dining/living deck with treetop views. Reconfigured for ultimate entertaining, it boasts a sparkling saltwater pool and spa, a covered patio with a bar, a gas fire table with built-in seating, and a sunny play yard. Outfitted with newer plumbing/electrical, solar panels, and a full-house natural gas generator, this turnkey historic treasure is ready for its fortunate next chapter.
