Located in coveted Southwest Pasadena and a contributing house in the Lower Arroyo Seco Historic District, this incredible home was designed by noted architect Charles W. Buchanan for Joseph S. Glasscock, a bookstore proprietor and early partner of A. C. Vroman. Thoughtfully updated while protecting architectural integrity, this home is designed for modern living with newer plumbing and electrical systems, solar panels, and a generator powered by natural gas that can run the entire house in the event of a power outage! The artfully designed gardens that surround the house privatize the yard making the entire property a usable oasis. A tranquil fountain and picturesque front porch with daybed swing greet visitors and hint at the truly special home beyond the front door. The main level of the house is perfect for entertaining with an open living room featuring a stately fireplace and wainscotting that seamlessly transitions to the formal dining area. A butler's pantry adjoins the dining area to the amazing kitchen. Surrounded by windows, the kitchen is open, airy, and flooded with natural light. A built-in bench overlooking the verdant side yard, seating at the substantial center island, and a breakfast banquette all allow the kitchen to be the social center of the home. French doors lead out to the expansive deck ideal for alfresco dining. The main level is complete with a cozy family room and half bath. The second floor has a total of four bedrooms and three bathrooms including the primary suite. The primary suite features a large walk-in closet and full bath with a deep soaking tub and double vanity. There is a secondary bedroom suite and the two remaining bedrooms share a hall bath. The walk-out lower level is an unexpected surprise; a versatile space for lounging and play with extensive built-in storage, half bath, and a direct connection to the backyard, it is an ideal casual hangout space. Reconfigured to cohesively extend the entertaining space, the backyard has multiple seating areas all surrounding a sparkling saltwater pool and spa. Highlights include a gas fire table with built-in seating, covered patio with bar, and sunny play yard with synthetic turf. This exceptionally well-located home with exquisite updates and entertaining in mind, is ready for the fortunate next owner to move right in.
