PASADENA DREAM ESTATE IN THE MAKING! With enough space to build a dream on, this classic 4 bedroom and office, 2 bath, 1926 home with a sprawling 1/3 acre lot in its elegant Northeast Pasadena neighborhood of Casa Grande is wide open for your imagination to wander. First of all, the hardwood flooring which is throughout most of the house is GORGEOUS. The long living room has a decorative fireplace and leads through french doors in one way to the formal dining room and the other way to the 5th bedroom, which we'll call an office because it also has its own private entrance from the front porch. The large kitchen and adjoining breakfast room both have extensive vintage built-ins, and there are 2 original baths. Closet space is excellent, the primary bedroom has a cedar lined closet and a dressing area with a built in vanity, and even the California style basement has built-ins! The many upgrades include solar, tankless water heater, newer electrical and dual zone heating and air, newer roof, and bolted foundation. There's just enough tweaking left over to put your stamp on this one-of-a-kind home. Besides having a long front porch where you can laze the days away and commune with your neighbors, the 15,000 sq ft lot with beautiful mature trees has huge front and back lawns, a large cement back patio, a 2 car garage off Orange Grove in the front and a 4 car garage off Crawford Alley in the rear. Just think of the expansion and luxury amenity possibilities! Conveniently a few minutes away from gourmet dining, the farmer's market, Old Pasadena, human and dog parks, hiking in Eaton Canyon, PCC, Cal Tech, shopping, fine theatre, and the floats from the Rose Parade! On the market for the first time in about 30 years, this home is a genuine treat to discover. Come explore and try it on for size! Please note the two chandeliers are personal favorites of the seller's and will not stay with the property.
