This 1941-built home in Pasadena's Jefferson Park is a rare offering: an updated, yet unspoiled character home with timeless details. From the approach, its traditional-style engages, with indigo-hued stucco, striking jet black shutters and brick red accents. With mountain views in the background, a cross-hipped roof and classic brick facing under a welcoming bay window, the home's charming exterior sets the stage for what's to come. Inside, glowing satin-finish white oak hardwood floors brighten the space from the ground up, flowing from the entry vestibule into the public rooms to the east, and private spaces on the west. The living room, with classic early-20th century coved ceilings, boasts a handsome stacked brick decorative fireplace with fluted molding surround.

Updates here include stone countertops, always-classic subway tile, substantial wood open shelving, and (just-installed!) stainless steel Whirlpool appliances.
