521 Fremont Drive
Pasadena, CA 91103
Sold
Constructed in 1979, this home offers great comparative value in an area surrounded by significant architectural homes in a highly coveted area of west Pasadena. Built on a downslope portion of land that was subdivided from the area's oldest estate home, 521 Fremont Drive is literally set between Brookside Park and the Prospect Park historic district. At the end of a short cul-de-sac and down a shared driveway, this large 2-story home has 4 bedrooms & 4 baths with over 2,600 interior square feet on a 16,973 square foot lot. There are meandering pathways and stairways that lead to an extensive flat pad below the home. A secret gate provides direct access to Brookside Park between the Aquatic Center and Kids Space Museum. There is a 2-car detached garage with a chauffeur's quarters below providing another 453 square feet interior space and a bonus full bath. The retro kitchen features an amoeboid breakfast bar and opens to a family room. The living & dining room windows look into the treetops, as well as the primary bedroom suite, which has walk-in closet and private balcony. A powder bath & covered terrace complete the upper level. The lower level has 3 bedrooms with 1 1/2 additional baths, a laundry room and a massive block and concrete basement area adding another 700+ square feet. The side door opens to another covered deck, and a short flight of stairs leads to an area able to accommodate a very large pool with room to spare. This property has some deferred maintenance and has not seen any significant updates since construction, aside from dual pane windows on most openings. Limited access requires showings to be by appointment only with no public open houses.
