Located in desirable Madison Heights on 27,193sf of park-like grounds, this exceptional & historic 1890 Queen Anne home has been lovingly restored & remodeled, incorporating original architectural elements that fit a modern-day lifestyle. Framed by mature trees, this Grande Dame was chosen as the Pasadena Showcase House of Design in 1970, and was the beloved home of noted chef Julia Child's grandparents for 45 years. A circular gated driveway welcomes you to this iconic estate with its inviting front porch & impressive foyer, accented by vintage light fixtures & a sweeping staircase. The spacious public rooms feature high ceilings & wood floors and flow seamlessly from parlor, formal DR, den & study, through to wonderful outdoor terraces. The gourmet kitchen, with stainless steel appliances & a large island, adjoins a breakfast room, butler's pantry, laundry room & a finished mudroom. Gracing the 2nd floor is a spacious master with walk-in closet & 3 additional BRs. A rear stairway leads to a 3rd floor with 2 BRs, 2 BAs & a 530sf finished attic. The sprawling backyard is perfect for entertaining with its inviting pool, spa & grassy lawn. An original carriage house has been transformed into a darling guest house with kitchenette, BA & 3 bonus rooms. Additional amenities include a large basement & garage, copper plumbing, HVAC, updated electrical & bolted foundation. One of Pasadena's oldest surviving homes, this is a truly an architectural treasure in a fabulous neighborhood!

As a licensed real estate brokerage, Estately has access to the same database professional Realtors use: the Multiple Listing Service (or MLS). That means we can display all the properties listed by other member brokerages of the local Association of Realtors—unless the seller has requested that the listing not be published or marketed online.
The MLS is widely considered to be the most authoritative, up-to-date, accurate, and complete source of real estate for-sale in the USA.
Estately updates this data as quickly as possible and shares as much information with our users as allowed by local rules. Estately can also email you updates when new homes come on the market that match your search, change price, or go under contract.
