Nestled in the heart of the Orange Heights Historic District and built in 1924, this enchanting Spanish Bungalow stands as a proud testament to the neighborhood's rich heritage, seamlessly blending timeless character with thoughtful modern updates. Spanning 1,356 square feet, on a generous 9,000-square-foot lot, the three-bedroom, two-bathroom layout is filled with timeless details. Welcoming and convenient screened front entry opens to a cozy living room, where hardwood floors, built-ins, a fireplace, and multiple French windows create a warm and inviting atmosphere. The dining room features French doors that open to a charming side porch. Off the central hallway, you'll find two spacious bedrooms and a remodeled full bathroom. A third bedroom, located just off the kitchen, is perfect for a home office, featuring a private exterior door that opens to the side yard. The beautifully remodeled kitchen flows seamlessly into an adjacent laundry area and a convenient half-bath, offering easy access to the backyard and detached garage. The rear yard is truly a standout feature. Thoughtfully designed, it is surrounded by mature fruit trees, and lush greenery, offering a tranquil retreat. With ample space, the lot presents a fantastic opportunity for expansion or the addition of an ADU. Additional upgrades include modernized plumbing and electrical, new central heating and air conditioning, a copper main water line, updated window and door screens, and a Level 2 EV Charger. With its prime location and undeniable charm, this home is a rare find in one of Pasadena's most cherished historic neighborhoods.
