Property Description
Welcome to 808 Grand Avenue, a rare 1927 architectural gem in the heart of South Pasadena, thoughtfully modeled after the iconic Mission San Luis Rey de Francia in Oceanside. Rich in character and timeless Spanish-inspired design, this 3-bedroom, 2.5-bath residence blends historic charm with meaningful updates for modern living.From the moment you enter, a stunning skylight floods the entryway with natural light, setting the tone for the home's bright and airy interiors. Original hardwood floors run throughout, complemented by soaring ceilings, floor-to-ceiling windows, and an exquisite collection of Spanish-style sconces and chandeliers that add warmth and authenticity. The main living spaces offer both elegance and comfort, while a detached additional 'casita' with its own half bath provides exceptional flexibility--ideal for a guest suite, office, or creative studio. A completely finished garage further expands the possibilities, perfect as a bonus space, workshop, or home gym. At the heart of the home, a charming courtyard with a tranquil fountain creates a true indoor-outdoor experience, seamlessly connecting the garage to the main home. The ample backyard adorned with fruit trees, as well as dining and gathering areas creates an inviting setting for entertaining or quiet relaxation. The home is convenient to local shopping, parks, Arroyo Seco hiking, and the Metro A Line. A historic yet thoughtfully updated treasure, 808 Grand Avenue is an architectural treasure in the heart of South Pasadena and its award winning school district.
