1200 Avenue 64 Pasadena, CA 91105

An emotional experience. Tucked behind a split rail fence and privacy hedges, nestled under a canopy of pepper, olive, and citrus trees, an enchanting 1930s Spanish with a pulse, personality and a pool rests in the heart of the magical San Rafael Hills. Quiet, removed and restful. Every angle, both inside and out, is nothing short of romantic. Wispy arches and verdant landscaping seen from every window, grounded by the irreplaceable patina of barreled ceilings, magnesite steps, original white oak flooring, windows, and hardware. All expertly married to robust modern systems (think PAID solar) and clean designer finishes. There's room for everyone, with dining and breakfast nooks, a chef's kitchen to rival all others with Viking appliances, and incredible closets and storage space for a home of this vintage. Three large bedrooms including a primary suite w/ bathroom, two closets and access to a backyard so inviting it's out of your wildest dreams. A love letter from the family who lived here for eight happy years, each tree beloved, each blooming bulb revered, each vignette more charming than the next. A pool with a spa and a section for little swimmers, plus outdoor dining and lounge areas ripe for entertaining. Mature gardens read like a real who's who: eureka lemon, blood orange, mandarin, nasturtiums, tulips, snow drops, star jasmine, and sweet peas. And a garage space whose use is limited only by your imagination. This is what we call a unicorn property. Enjoying the warmth of age, but with every modern comfort of home, and the opportunity for the next shepherds to leave their mark. Within walking distance of iconic neighborhood amenities like Little Flower Cafe, Amara Cafe, San Rafael Elementary, Park, Playground, and Library. Near the historic Church of the Angels as well as the secret steps that lead down to the Arroyo Seco trails. Plus it's a stone's throw to the Rose Bowl, the Norton Simon Museum, and of course all the hottest spots in Highland Park. A perfectly positioned jump-off-spot for an east side mover and shaker in one of the most beloved and vibrant pockets of Pasadena. Perched among multi-million dollar estates, keeping the company of architectural royalty, and at a knockout price point. Come over! Come see!
