About this listing

Where Pasadena Charm Meets Modern Living

Tucked along tree-lined North Sierra Madre Boulevard in one of Pasadena’s most desirable northeast neighborhoods, this beautifully renovated 1940s home blends classic character with head-to-toe modern upgrades. Minutes from Eaton Canyon hiking trails, top-rated schools, and the vibrant energy of Old Town Pasadena, this is the perfect home base for families, relocators, or anyone seeking a refined Southern California retreat.

✨ Space & Design

Step inside to discover nearly 2,000 square feet of thoughtfully redesigned living space. The open-concept floor plan seamlessly connects a sun-drenched living room, elegant dining area, and show-stopping chef’s kitchen — ideal for entertaining or relaxed everyday living.

The living room centers around a classic brick fireplace with a white wood mantel, flanked by architectural wainscoting and a graceful bay window that floods the room with natural light. Curated mid-century furnishings — a plush white sectional, cognac woven-leather accent chairs, and a sculptural floor lamp — create a warm, magazine-worthy atmosphere.

The gourmet kitchen is the heart of the home, featuring a massive white marble island with breakfast bar seating for four, a five-burner gas cooktop with stainless steel chimney range hood, built-in wall oven and microwave, an LG French-door refrigerator, and a convenient island prep sink. White shaker cabinetry, a marble tile backsplash, and brushed nickel pendant lighting complete the designer look.

A substantial rustic wood dining table seats six comfortably, perfect for family dinners or intimate gatherings with friends.

Four well-appointed bedrooms offer generous proportions with light oak hardwood floors throughout. The primary suite features a king-size bed with an upholstered headboard and sliding glass doors that open to the backyard. Additional bedrooms are thoughtfully furnished with queen beds, modern nightstands, and ample closet space.

Three beautifully finished bathrooms showcase navy blue Shaker vanities with dual undermount sinks, white quartz countertops, subway tile backsplashes, brushed nickel fixtures, black-framed oval mirrors, and elegant hexagonal marble floor tile — a perfect blend of modern farmhouse and contemporary design.

🏡 Outdoor Space

Set on a generous 8,010-square-foot lot, this home offers wonderful outdoor living. The primary suite opens directly to the backyard, creating a seamless indoor-outdoor flow. Mature trees provide shade and privacy, while the spacious yard is perfect for morning coffee, al fresco dining, or children’s play. The property includes a one-car garage and dedicated parking.
