***Pro photos coming soon!*** Calling all budding queens and princesses, princes and kings! Here's the home you've been waiting for to match your love of adventure, uniqueness, charm and authenticity. This 1920's storybook English, so much like a castle in the sky, hasn't been on the market since the 60's. Come delight in the joy of experiencing a real character home, untouched by white paint, granite countertops and luxury vinyl flooring. That in itself is enough reason to visit. Are there some updates to be done? Sure, but there is nothing like a home that has been dearly nurtured, pampered and strengthened for so many years by the same loving owner, and this owner has been a stickler for details. Enter the gate below, wind up the stairway and discover a living room with high ceilings, a large fireplace, and a dining area. Diamond-paned windows overlooking long range pastoral views and furniture built for the home enhance this large space. Turn to your left and you'll enter the country kitchen with custom built cabinets, a breakfast area and a side door leading outside. At the top of the stairs ahead of you are the 3 bedrooms and one bath down a center hallway. The master bedroom has a walk in closet and a door that leads to a large deck which winds around the property and affords more viewing spots. Another bedroom leads to a large and beautiful covered patio. But wait, what happens if we turn to the right from the living room downstairs? Surprise! There's your very own CANTINA with wet bar, tables and chairs if you need that extra sustenance or if you have a love of great parties, which this house has seen in its heyday. Apparently all the neighbors used to come here to have a great time. Along one wall of the cantina are windows lit in blue at night which overlook part of the backyard called "the desert" with cacti and concrete desert creatures of all types. Along the hallway at the back of the cantina is....a secret bathroom, just when you need it the most! Throughout the house are amazing doors and character details that will make you think you're at the Tam O'Shanter at Christmas about to hear the carolers at your table. Come see how each room has a personality of its own and beautiful views. Perhaps your favorite will be the room at the top of the stairs with a built-in bed underneath a window where Rapunzel herself might let down her hair, or through which a budding young prince might survey his South Pasadena kingdom-to-be. Speaking of South Pasadena, nothing could be finer than the A+ schools here! Before you leave, check out the basement level of the house which has a large workshop with saw and more storage than you will probably ever need (goodbye Public Storage!). ***And to top it all off, this sale also includes a separate legal lot next door (APN 5310-022-006), for a total lot size of approx. 8700 sq feet! Be sure to write that in your offer!*** Come claim your kingdom or queendom and enjoy life atop it all!
