Resting on an expansive, beautifully landscaped corner lot in a picturesque pocket of Pasadena, 1215 N Sierra Bonita Ave makes an unforgettable first impression. A brilliant example of Prairie School architecture at its finest, this historic home radiates character. Even the most stressful days fade on the wraparound porch, glass of wine optional. Inside, the spacious, light-filled layout is tailored for everyday joy--starting with the welcoming living room where hardwood floors, a grand fireplace, and peaceful neighborhood views create a warm environment. Continue to the dining room with original built-ins and an array of windows that cast a soft, ambient glow. The stylishly updated kitchen is bright, spacious, and well-appointed with a cozy breakfast nook. Upstairs, the primary suite is wrapped in windows and provides its own sitting area along with a sumptuous ensuite bath, perfect for luxuriating. Each of the remaining three bedrooms comes with its own special perk--whether it's an ensuite bath, walk-in closet, balcony access, or an extra art space. The home's massive back and side yards combine to create your own private park. Multiple entertaining areas, a grassy lawn, a bocce ball court, and a firepit invite joyful entertaining and play. What's more, the detached 2-car garage has been thoughtfully converted into a light-filled yoga studio, while a spacious California basement serves as a delightful theater room. Here at 1215 N Sierra Bonita Ave, you'll savor a timeless blend of comfort and charm that never goes out of style.
