After a 3 year top-to-bottom renovation, 1648 Spruce Street has been beautifully reimagined as the perfect place for planting roots. Set in one of South Pasadena's most highly sought neighborhoods and resting on over 1/3 of an acre of professionally landscaped grounds, here you'll enjoy turnkey luxury, a permitted ADU, and plenty of room to add a pool. What's more, you're just around the corner from award-winning Marengo Elementary School and South Pasadena Middle School. The home itself has been thoughtfully redesigned to enhance your joyful experience of everyday life, surrounded by those you love most. Nowhere is this more apparent than the sundrenched family room where custom cabinetry houses a built-in entertainment center and beverage fridge, creating a magical space for epic movie nights, birthday sleepovers, and treasured quality time. Nearby, the generously sized kitchen with Carrera marble, Viking appliances, and a walk-in pantry offers another natural gathering place. Additional showcase spaces include the elegant living and dining rooms, both offering a sophisticated yet warm ambiance, enhanced by refinished original oak floors and radiant natural light. The smart layout ensures everyone has ample privacy, situating two bedrooms on either side of the home. The west bedrooms share a Jack & Jill bath, while the east side includes a fourth bedroom and the luxurious owner's suite that features a spa-like ensuite and a peaceful, private patio. In the expansive, fully-fenced backyard, an array of delights await starting with the brick-inlaid entertaining patio just off the family room. A fully permitted ADU serves myriad needs including a rec room, studio, guesthouse, and more, while the spacious lawn is ideal for running, playing, and games of catch. A gourmet built-in grill and refrigerator complete the backyard, where summer BBQ's and outdoor brunches will become treasured hallmarks of each passing year. Should you wish to enhance your outdoor fun, there's even plenty of space to add in a pool! With its timeless appeal and top-tier school district, 1648 Spruce Street isn't just a home--it's a place for you and your loved ones to flourish.
