Located on a quiet tree-lined street in Pasadena's charming Caltech neighborhood, this delightful French Normandy-style home is certain to steal your heart. Originally built in 1929, the house features beautifully restored architectural details and exceptional updates well-suited for both comfortable living and easygoing entertaining. The open floor plan flows easily from the front entrance to a rear deck, with arched passageways, high ceilings and dozens of vintage windows bringing in an abundance of natural light along the way. The living room includes beamed ceilings, a gas-burning fireplace and built-in bookshelves. The large dining room opens to a family room and a spacious, updated kitchen with gorgeous quartz countertops, new stainless-steel appliances and a high-ceilinged skylight. From the family room, French doors open to a deck, brick patio and lawn perfect for outdoor dining. A special delight of the garden are Meyer lemon, Valencia orange and Persian lime trees. Half of the garage has been converted into a detached home office that overlooks the quiet garden and its lemon trees. The home has three bedrooms and two and one-half bathrooms. The primary bedroom has plantation shutters and views of the garden, with a lovely en suite bathroom with hexagon tiled floors and a pedestal sink for two. The second bathroom, also with tile flooring and a pedestal sink, has a whirlpool tub and is shared between the two additional bedrooms. Off the kitchen is a combined pantry and laundry room and a half-bathroom. The original oak hardwood floors have been refinished and there is a newer central air and heating system. The front garden features an array of drought-tolerant plantings, and there's a new irrigation system in both the front and rear yards. The home's location is central to everything for which Pasadena is renowned: Caltech; the Huntington Library, Art Museum, and Botanical Gardens; and the many shops and wonderful restaurants on South Lake Avenue and in Old Town Pasadena.
