533 Orange Grove Ave, South Pasadena, CA 91030

This 1904 historic craftsman has been lovingly maintained and updated, and is a South Pasadena treasure. Beautiful terraced grounds with pool, spa, pool/guest house, with mature trees and foliage. In 2010 a dream kitchen was designed by Pasadena architect, Doug Ewing, with an abundance of light, granite counters, sunny breakfast room, and opening to the family room. The public rooms are large with gracious boxed ceilings, wide mouldings, and a flow to the outdoors that conjures up bygone social parties. The library is conveniently located for a home-office. There are four bedrooms upstairs, each with French doors opening to balconies. There is an additional sitting room, plus a very generous walk-in closet in the master. There is a 1000-bottle temperature-controlled wine cellar. A most gracious home with all the updating of electrical, plumbing and recent air conditioning. A most discriminating property for those looking to embrace the past elegance of the Arts and Crafts era, but appreciating all the amenities of an updated home. A pleasure to view.
