Property Description
Tucked into the heart of South Pasadena, just steps from the city's beloved boutiques, eateries, wine bars, and its iconic Farmers Market, this exquisitely reimagined 1906 California cottage blends timeless charm with an elevated, design-forward sensibility. Fully remodeled from the ground up, every inch of this home speaks to craftsmanship, artistry, and an eye for both detail and livability.
The main residence offers three bedrooms and two baths, wrapped in warmth with European oak floors, abundant natural light, and an original, refurbished fireplace that anchors the living space with a touch of history. The stunning chef's kitchen combines style and function, opening to dining and living areas for effortless entertaining. The primary suite is a private retreat, complete with a luxurious en suite bath featuring a double vanity, skylit walk-in shower, and generous walk-in closet. A dedicated laundry room is thoughtfully placed off the suite, leading to a secluded outdoor patio where a gently bubbling fountain sets a serene tone.
Beyond the main house lies an impressive two-bedroom, one-bath accessory dwelling unit with its own full kitchen, dining area, and laundry—ideal for guests, extended family, or additional income. The ADU opens to its own private courtyard with a fountain and lounge, plus a secluded patio perfect for al fresco dining.
The outdoor living spaces are a masterclass in California coastal lifestyle—tree-draped dining areas, a romantic pergola that doubles as a shaded lounge or covered parking, an inviting fire pit, and landscaping reminiscent of Montecito and Santa Barbara. Meandering pathways, mature plantings, and layered greenery create a sense of escape, while still being moments from top-rated schools (elementary through high school), parks, and all the cultural charm South Pasadena is known for.
This is more than a home—it's a fully realized vision of Southern California living: historic character, modern luxury, and a connection to community, all in one rare and remarkable property.
