Historic character, generous grounds and remarkable versatility come together at 1288 N. Garfield Ave., a beautifully preserved 1904 Victorian Transitional American Foursquare in Pasadena s Garfield Heights Historic District. Set on an expansive 12,343-square-foot lot, the property pairs the craftsmanship and warmth of a turn-of-the-century residence with thoughtful modern improvements and a separate permitted ADU. The 1,872-square-foot main residence offers three bedrooms and two-and-a-half baths, with exceptional original details throughout. Rich Douglas fir and oak millwork, hardwood floors, built-ins, substantial columns, pocket doors, leaded-glass windows and period lighting speak to the home s architectural heritage. A gracious front porch opens to an impressive staircase and light-filled living and dining spaces, while the updated kitchen features a farmhouse sink, stone counters and abundant cabinetry. Upstairs are three bedrooms, including a spacious primary suite with walk-in closet and private bath. The grounds are equally compelling. Mature trees create a shaded, private setting complemented by drought-tolerant landscaping, fruit trees, a broad flagstone patio, a bocce ball court and a charming Little Free Library designed as a miniature of the home itself. A long driveway provides extensive off-street parking and leads to an oversized detached two-car garage. Adding exceptional flexibility is the separate approximately 531-square-foot, one-bedroom, one-bath ADU, thoughtfully designed to complement the architecture of the original residence. Its vaulted and beamed ceiling, full kitchen, fireplace, loft/storage area and adjoining covered patio create a distinctive space for guests, extended household, home office or other permitted uses. The property also features owned solar. With approximately 2,403 square feet of combined living space, two residences and a rare amount of land, 1288 N. Garfield offers an exceptional combination of historic Pasadena architecture, outdoor space and modern-day versatility.
