Pasadena bungalow alongside the Arroyo Seco asks $1.3M

Perched directly above the Arroyo Seco, this lovely Pasadena bungalow was constructed in 1910 and sits on a 7,231-square-foot lot, shaded by a sturdy oak tree.

Fronted by a covered deck, the house has three bedrooms and two bathrooms, spread across 1,796 square feet of living space. Inside is a light-filled living room with wide panels of casement windows, built-in shelving, and a brick fireplace.

The formal dining room has a coffered ceiling, French doors, and an elegant built-in buffet. It opens into a spacious kitchen, which has been updated with stainless steel appliances.

Like the living room, the master bedroom is also equipped with wide window panels and a fireplace of its own.

Behind the house is an enclosed yard and a brick patio with space for outdoor seating and dining. There’s also a detached two-car garage which holds the laundry room.

The home last sold in 2005 for a little over $1 million. It’s now listed for $1.275 million.
