About this property

Nestled on a desirable tree-lined street on a half acre of park-like grounds in the Prospect Park Historic District, this stately Spanish treasure captures the charm of the 1920s, and is on the market for the first time since 1955. Commanding great curb presence, this home was designed by noted architect Harold H Martin in 1924, and features original wrought-iron fixtures, windows & French doors. A circular driveway & an intimate courtyard beckons guests into an entry hall, which opens to a spectacular step-down LR with fireplace, beamed ceiling & a wall of glass. A cozy library and a formal DR also offer views of the magnificent backyard framed by mature trees. A cheery kitchen & laundry room look out to a private side courtyard. Two BRs plus a full BA complete the main level. The second floor features three BRs, two BAs & lush tree-top vistas. An expansive tiled patio, perfect for entertaining & alfresco dining, overlooks the sprawling lawn & large pool. Other amenities include a 2-car garage, pool bath, storage room, copper plumbing, two HVAC units & new interior paint. Just one tree-lined block from Chandler School and close to the Rose Bowl, parks, golf courses, Old Town Pasadena dining & shopping, and easy freeway access to DTLA, studios & West side

Great job Carol!

We couldn’t have asked for more from Carol and she delivered! Professional, knowledgeable and sensitive to the emotions involved in selling my childhood home and a home that had been in my family since 1954. She also was instrumental in our ultimately receiving a price well over asking. We appreciated very much her commitment to excellence.
