Situated in the coveted Linda Vista area of Pasadena, this 1940 traditional home was meticulously renovated & expanded in 2015 by the current owner, blending classic character with modern comfort. Beyond the mature hedge, a water-wise front garden with a soothing fountain leads to a vine-draped covered front porch that welcomes one into the impressive interior where the formal living room showcases a handsome fireplace flanked by wall-to-wall custom built-in bookcases. The amazing great room unites the formal dining area, highlighted by a sparkling chandelier & a dry bar; and a true chef's dream kitchen complete with professional-grade Thermador appliances, a dramatic center island boasting a full-slab marble countertop, & abundant custom cabinetry with elegant millwork.
