488 Lockehaven Street, Pasadena

Located in the historic Arroyo Seco area of Pasadena, Architect T.W. Parkes designed this stately American Foursquare just a few years after Pasadena’s founding. Retaining much of its original architectural design, the many period details only enhance the appeal & character of this much loved home. Wide pocket doors, 9-10ft ceilings, bayed windows and pine floors. Detailed wood molding, tall baseboards, original and/or replicated hardware are thru out. A covered wrap-around front porch beckons to sit & relax, the handsome front door opens to a formal foyer that leads to the Parlor, living room and formal dining room. Off the hall is a ¾ guest bath and library with built-in bookcases. In recent years the home was meticulously restored & expanded true to the design but thinking in today’s lifestyle. A terrific kitchen with a center island, Viking range, Sub-Zero Refrigerator, bayed breakfast area and the adjacent family room with a fireplace were added. Upstairs are 3 generous bedrooms, 2 baths and a Master Suite. The 3rd floor has a guest suite with bedroom, bath and sitting room. Gated, the back gardens are serene and private. There is a wide covered back porch for entertaining that looks over the pool, spa and lush vegetation. This is a truly gracious home that offers comfort and style. If only T.W Parkes could see it now!
