1317 Gates PL South Pasadena, CA 91030

Quite possibly one of the most romantic homes of its style and era, this enchanting Spanish is tucked away on a private, tree lined cul-de-sac in one of South Pasadena's most desirable neighborhoods. Built in 1930, this three bedroom, two bathroom architectural beauty will sweep you off your feet! The main floor features a welcoming front porch and entry, formal living room with barrel ceiling, decorative Batchelder style fireplace and an array of windows that provide peaceful views and plenty of natural light, central hall with linen closet, a vintage kitchen, breakfast room, separate laundry room, and a formal dining room with French doors leading to a deck overlooking the woodsy backyard with a swing set, sitting areas and a professionally designed stream that meanders through the lush landscape. The lower level includes a study/guest bedroom that leads out to a tiled patio perfect for family gatherings, a workshop with lots of space and storage with (rumor has it) wood from prohibition-era medicinal whiskey barrels that were re-purposed into a workbench. Upgrades include newer copper plumbing and waste lines, 200 amp panel, electrical rewire, water heater, HVAC/ducting, fresh interior/exterior paint, custom period light fixtures throughout, refinished original hardwood floors, all bedrooms have cedar closets, and a finished attached garage with French windows and direct access. Close to Award Winning Schools, Goldline, bike paths, shops & restaurants, parks, golf & tennis, Farmer's Market, and so much more! Just minutes to DTLA, Old Town Pasadena, Glendale & Burbank. A must see!
