Sited to enjoy vistas of the San Gabriel Mountains and Pasadena City Hall, this 1938 home designed by architect Lawrence Test is the pinnacle of Linda Vista lifestyle. Privacy is paramount on this sprawling lot measuring over 3/4 acre with native oak trees, river rock masonry walls and views framed by mature landscaping. A Traditional Ranch style property with decades-honed brick pathways and board and batten siding, this home is one with the land. The front courtyard, anchored by a majestic Live Oak tree, is bordered by a vaulted portico leading to the entry. Classical elements blend with Spanish Colonial touches: romantic hand glazed tile and sink at the wet bar cabinet complement the traditional broad front door, flanked by entry lights and transom window. The home was designed to allow for ease of living, with a graceful flow from the entry into public rooms and large back yard via french doors and abundant windows. Offering 4 bedrooms and 3 baths, the scale and appointment of spaces here is artful: a grand living room with decorative fireplace joins the right-sized formal dining room, leading into an exquisitely updated kitchen featuring custom inset cabinetry, marble countertops and handsome ochre glazed tile backsplash. Top of the line stainless steel appliances, island with storage and adjoining pantry/laundry room and powder bath make this space ideal for modern living. Doors to front courtyard and back dining/grilling patio make for ease of access and seamless interaction between interior and exterior spaces. Private spaces include primary suite with handsome decorative fireplace, custom walk-in closet and renovated full bath with dual-sink vanity, soaking tub and walk-in shower. Two additional bedrooms enjoy peaceful garden views and share a full bath with elegant marble countertop, flooring and bathtub surround. A fourth bedroom, currently used as a den, boasts a charming fireplace with vintage hand-painted tile surround, tongue-in-groove paneling, charming built-ins, and a door opening to a rose-lined patio. The lush, grassy back yard bordered by several varieties of blooming iris, roses and scented geraniums is a dream. With privacy, views and birdsong - to be here is to be delivered to peace and nature, with space to play. Far reaches of the property reveal fruit trees on the upper terraces and a large shaded grassy pad encircled with oaks. This is a spectacular piece of architecture in an exceptional setting, what a fantasy to call home.
