1915 Edgewood Drive, South Pasadena, CA 91030

Extraordinarily private 1940 Ranch-style courtyard house located on one of South Pasadena's most coveted tree-lined streets in the Marengo Estate Neighborhood. Through a vintage iron gateway, a covered breezeway welcomes you to a beautiful outdoor courtyard, protected by a magnificent tree that generously shades the entire compound. This 'outdoor room' offers an exclusive retreat with ample space for leisure and outdoor gatherings with easy access to multiple areas of the home. Through the front door lies a cozy living room with fireplace, original wood paneling and cabinets/shelves. A grand pocket door opens to the kitchen and dining areas, providing flexibility between open-plan and separated spaces. A gourmet chef's kitchen with a luxurious mix of green granite countertops, clearwood cabinets, and all stainless steel Thermador appliances adjoins the dining room through a breakfast bar perfect for entertaining guests or watching over children while getting dinner on the table. An intimate dining room with generous built-in cupboards makes it easy to transition between dining and activities at the family table, making this the true heart of the home. A secluded hallway provides access to the private living areas of the house, including two bedrooms with en-suite baths and closets, as well as an intimate room that can serve as a child's bedroom, nursery, home office, or walk-in closet, accessible through either the hallway or primary bedroom suite. At the rear of the house, a glass-enclosed and climate-controlled room can serve as a sun-drenched recreation room or bedroom, easily accessible through the courtyard or primary bedroom suite. Across the courtyard and separate from the rest of the house is the exquisitely converted great room with separate third bath/powder room, A/C, tall ceilings and skylights. This area offers a private yet connected space perfect for a home theater/studio, a guest bedroom suite, a grand home office, or generous live/play space for children. The 'secret garden' of Eddie Park is less than a minute walk down the street, providing a safe and protected haven that is always full of neighbors, friends, and playmates. Located in the coveted attendance zone for the award-winning blue-ribbon Marengo Elementary, kids can walk with friends to school just a few short blocks away. A truly unique property in one of the most desirable enclaves of South Pasadena!
