Description
A 1912 Craftsman bungalow in the heart of Pasadena, fully renovated while keeping the details that make this style iconic — stone porch pillars, cedar shingle siding in a curated sage, and a covered front porch that hint at the design intention carried throughout. Inside, white oak-toned plank flooring anchors a thoughtfully reimagined floor plan where that earthy palette continues in deliberate, unexpected ways. The open living, dining, and kitchen areas connect naturally, anchored by an electric fireplace with a zellige-style green ceramic tile surround and custom wood mantle — a design thread that runs from the exterior paint to the primary shower, giving the home a rare, cohesive identity. The kitchen carries the same intention forward: white oak shaker cabinetry with brass hardware, a statement custom hood, a harlequin-patterned ceramic tile backsplash in cream and warm sand, quartz countertops, and a breakfast bar island. French doors open directly to the backyard. The primary suite offers a walk-in closet and a refined en suite: dual walnut vanity with gold fixtures, shiplap accent wall, and a floor-to-ceiling green ceramic tile shower with marble bench, recessed niche, rainfall showerhead, and frameless glass enclosure. Two additional bedrooms share a full bath with tub, elongated gray tile surround, and marble countertop. A dedicated laundry room and solar round out the practical details. Behind the detached garage, a legal flex space with vaulted wood-beamed ceiling and french doors works as a home office, studio, or media room. The backyard opens to a spacious deck, lush lawn, and playset under a canopy of palms — moments from Old Town Pasadena, The Rose Bowl, The Playhouse District, and the 210, with Roma Market and neighborhood parks close at hand.

2/10GreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageMy son just completed 6th grade and, as he is an artist, is learning so much from, not only his art and drama classes, but from the after school conservatory. He is taking two fine art/drawing classes, stop motion animation. As I have no artistic talent, he is getting much needed direction, support, and encouragement. In addition, he is getting strong core curriculum instruction. The conservatory, along with the Capturing Kids Heart program, have created a vibrant, kind, calm, and enriching environment for students to learn.A new principal was placed this year and has acclimated easily and taken the helm. I look forward to her increased attention on academics and insuring that students are being fully challenged academically as they are artistically.Parent Review1y ago - Longfellow (Henry W.)

4/10GreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageLongfellow is our neighborhood school, and we've been very happy here. The principal is excellent! She sets a great tone and example for everyone, from teachers to parents to students. My kids enjoy all the weekly "specials" including PE, music, and art. They are also in the dual language program, which is such an awesome opportunity for kids to become fully bilingual. The PTA is active and encourages parent involvement in any capacity. I really appreciate how public schools bring diverse people together in support of a common goal. I'm so glad to be connected to the wonderful, supportive community at Longfellow!Parent Review2y ago - John Muir High School
