1504 S Marengo Ave, Pasadena, CA 91106

Once known as "Los Robles Park," this impressive Shingle Style home endures as one of Pasadena's architectural gems. The estate was designed and built in 1894, early in Pasadena's history, by prominent East Coast architect, John Jardine, who was also the owner's father. The original architecture has been beautifully preserved yet enhanced greatly through well-designed improvements. The home boasts expansive common rooms, beautiful connection between the indoor and outdoor spaces, and elegant details throughout. The light-filled first floor is highlighted by an architect-designed kitchen with center island. Well-proportioned formal rooms provide access to the rear patio and garden. The second floor features 4 bedrooms and 3 baths, including a nicely appointed master suite. The private 3rd story retreat with 2 bedrooms and a full bath completes the floor plan. Evoking images of a sophisticated Long Island retreat, this iconic home has been featured in nearly 100 TV commercials.
