Description
A rare architectural gem in Pasadena's coveted Bungalow Heaven, this 1950 home reflects the enduring appeal of California Ranch-style architecture blended with the revival of traditional adobe construction. Inspired by early California adobe homes of the Spanish and Mexican periods, this distinctive residence captures a style popularized throughout Southern California in the late 1940s and 1950s.The inviting brick and adobe-block front courtyard embraces the Ranch-style tradition of indoor-outdoor living. Inside, the spacious living room features a cathedral ceiling, original wrought-iron chandelier, Spanish-tile flooring, and a masonry fireplace with a wood mantel. Throughout the home, original details tell the story of a bygone era, including Spanish-tile accents, wood cabinetry, tongue-and-groove walls, exposed wood beams, wrought-iron sconces, and distinctive hardware.The generously sized kitchen retains its original Spanish tile and wood cabinetry, complemented by a large north-facing window. A separate laundry room and three-quarter guest bath continue the home's authentic tilework. Deeply inset steel casement windows, substantial wood lintels, and a low-pitched roof with wide overhangs further enhance its traditional adobe-inspired character.Outside, a spacious, enclosed side yard and deck offer a private setting for enjoying California sunshine and warm summer evenings. A breezeway carport, two-car garage, and rectangular corner lot complete this special property.Rich in character, architectural detail, and timeless California charm, this is a rare opportunity to own a truly distinctive home in Bungalow Heaven.
