Over the last 55 years, this classic 1911 Craftsman bungalow has been lovingly transformed into a beloved artist's sanctuary. Amongst mature oaks, elms, and camelias, morning light streams onto the front porch, nestled nicely above the sidewalk below, and has witnessed countless chats with family and neighbors strolling by. Inside, the focal point of the living room is a gorgeous brick fireplace with a handmade centerpiece tile by the ceramicist homeowner, all framed beautifully by built-in bookcases and casement windows. Unique to this bungalow is the extraordinary light that pours into the sunroom and dining room through stained glass windows and skylights. The kitchen, with floor-to-ceiling cabinetry, opens into a lovely, sunny eating area with bench seating and a cozy, adjacent den. Three bedrooms grace this home, the largest having built-in bookshelves and a sizable closet (currently used as a family room), and the remaining two bedrooms, discretely off the dining room, flank the spacious full bathroom. Perfect for gatherings, al fresco dining, and creative endeavors is the beautifully landscaped backyard, complete with potter's shed, a large brick and stone patio with seating and dining areas, and even a bonus space above the garage (used as a treetop library for years with a kitchenette and 3/4 bathroom). One block north of highly regarded Marengo Elementary School, this rare bungalow affords easy access to Garfield Park, Eddie Park, and downtown South Pasadena, just a few blocks away.
