Tucked into the prestigious Linda Vista neighborhood of Pasadena, this beautifully updated single-level residence blends timeless design with luxurious finishes in a private setting framed by mature trees and lush landscaping. Inside, hardwood floors and soft natural light create a warm, welcoming atmosphere. A formal living room with a classic fireplace and French doors opens gracefully to the tranquil backyard, creating a seamless connection to the outdoors. The chef's kitchen is both elegant and functional, featuring a generous center island, professional-grade appliances, a farmhouse sink, walk-in pantry, and a charming breakfast nook framed by garden views. It is perfectly designed for both everyday living and entertaining. The family room offers a second fireplace, built-in speakers, and an adjacent powder room that makes hosting effortless. A formal dining room and dedicated office or playroom provide added flexibility for work and gatherings. All four bedrooms are located in a separate wing to ensure comfort and privacy. The expansive primary suite serves as a private retreat with a sitting area, fireplace, and a spacious walk-in closet. The spa-like bath features a soaking tub, oversized shower, dual vanities, and a skylight that fills the space with natural light. Three additional bedrooms and two well-appointed bathrooms complete the private wing, offering space for family and guests. Outdoors, the property unfolds as a true sanctuary. Set on a large, private lot, the grounds feature winding stone paths, vibrant landscaping, and towering trees that create a natural canopy overhead. A koi pond with a gentle waterfall adds a sense of calm throughout the outdoor space. The oversized in-ground spa is nestled beneath the trees, offering a perfect place to relax. A covered patio and built-in gas BBQ make entertaining effortless, whether hosting intimate dinners or weekend gatherings. On the upper tier of the lot is a detached custom-built structure that provides a flexible space for a home office, art studio, or creative retreat. The front yard also offers a flat, grassy area that is perfect for lounging, outdoor play, or enjoying time with your family under the shade of mature trees. This outdoor environment has it all: privacy, beauty, and a tranquil atmosphere that elevates everyday living. A rare opportunity to enjoy refined living in one of Pasadena's most picturesque neighborhoods, close to a number of renowned schools, the Rose Bowl, and Brookside Park.
