Renovated Craftsman with airy interiors seeks $799K in Pasadena

This Pasadena Craftsman was built in 1911, but sports an airy interior that’s been carefully updated in recent years.

Sitting on a 7,810-square-foot lot, the house is fronted by a grassy lawn and a covered front porch. In the back is a sizable deck and adjoining patio, along with a landscaped yard and a detached garage that includes space for an office.

On the inside of the 1,786-square-foot residence are three bedrooms and one and a half bathrooms. Interior features include built-in shelving and bench seating, hardwood and tile floors, divided light windows, and a large stone fireplace in the living room. There’s also a formal dining room and a spacious kitchen equipped with an eight-burner gas stove.

As an added bonus, the home, which looks every bit the part of a classic Pasadena bungalow from the exterior, is eligible for preservation-related tax breaks under California’s Mills Act.

Asking price is $799,000.
