Some of the city’s most prominent citizens have lived here, attracted by the beautiful architecture, terraced yards, tree lined streets, and mountain views.

This picture perfect 1914 Craftsman Bungalow sits in the beautiful and prestigious Bungalow Heaven Historic Landmark District. Past owners ensured this piece of Pasadena history retained all its original charm during a remodel in 2000-from the wrap around porch, river rock chimney, exposed rafter tails, and gable roof, to the pocket doors, picture rails, built in cabinets and meticulously landscaped front yard, this home reflects both the charm of a traditional Craftsman residence and the appeal of updated luxury. A den adjacent to the second bedroom could be a nursery or 3rd bedroom. Great for entertaining with open floor plan, flagstone patio, and peaceful outdoor sitting areas. The remodel included updated electric, copper plumbing, security system, refinished hardwood floors in the bedrooms and bath, new central air/heat, automatic sprinklers, and new period light fixtures throughout the house. There's also an oversized 2-car detached garage and a large,flat, enclosed yard.
