What's around 1955 North Garfield Avenue

About this property

Set behind a custom fence gated entrance, this home blends historic charm with warm contemporary style. This beautifully maintained 1928 Storybook Tudor Revival bungalow with breathtaking mountain views welcomes you in with its picturesque gabled roof, charming arched windows, and lush, thoughtfully landscaped yard. An idyllic retreat inside and out. Inside, original architectural details shine, from elegant arched entryways to intricate ceiling moldings. Sunlight pours through large character-rich windows illuminating the warm refinished hardwood floors and curated design touches. A stunning living room, anchored by a functional gas fireplace, offers an expansive space to unwind. A bright formal dining room is spacious enough for larger gatherings while remaining warm and cozy for intimate family meals. The kitchen is fresh, pristine, and bright, blending vintage charm with modern updates. Equipped with stainless steel appliances and ample cabinetry -including a beautiful built-in buffet- it offers both style and function. The airy kitchen flows into a light happy laundry room that also features additional pantry storage. A gorgeous bathroom flaunts the dreamiest arched curves, designer tilework, stylish fixtures, and refined finishes including limestone textured walls. The large premiere bedroom is a peaceful retreat, exuding comfort and style. The second bedroom, currently used as a home office and guest space, is equally tranquil. Both rooms feature large closets, contemporary ceiling fans, and new windows that frame beautiful backyard greenery. Drenched in natural light, each room feels effortlessly inviting, with a layout that balances openness and privacy. Handcrafted built-ins throughout make for a flawless flow of functionality and aesthetic. Dimmable lighting allows for customizable ambiance. Outside, the expansive private backyard oasis is a dream. Vista views. Mature trees create a natural canopy of shade, a spa with custom decking and storage offers soothing exhales. There are multiple outdoor conversation and connection areas, including a picturesque pergola-covered deck, that provide the perfect vignettes for relaxing or entertaining. The front porch, accented with a chic designer tile, is an ideal spot for morning coffee and sunset conversations with mountain views. The sprawling front yard is home to an array of plants and fruit trees, including herbs, key lime, Meyer lemon, and ruby red grapefruit. The vast attic space holds potential for conversion and added value. The spacious detached two-car garage completes the property, currently used for storage and a workshop while still accommodating a vehicle. It also presents a great opportunity to create a flexible artist's space or ADU. This gorgeous, peaceful home has been thoughtfully adored and features numerous upgrades, including: copper plumbing, new roof, new HVAC, new double-paned thermal windows and restored original windows, tankless water heater, gas line to fireplace, fresh interior and exterior paint, sprinkler system, nest, keyless entry and alarm. Nestled in a neighborhood where you can still see the stars at night, this area offers a charming small-town feel while being just minutes from all that Pasadena has to offer, Altadena, South Pasadena, Highland Park, and DTLA. With a 95 walk score, you're steps from local mom and pop markets, shops, and restaurants. A short bike ride or drive up Lincoln takes you to an array of fun spots: coffee at Stumptown, gelato and handmade pasta at Ferrazzani's Italian Market, tacos from HomeState, and Kismet- just opened! This home is truly a gem offering history, beauty and a sense of community in one remarkable package. This home is on a census track that qualifies eligibility for the Homerun program, offering no PMI with 5% down at a 6% rate plus up to $7500 in closing cost credits.
