1816 Olive Avenue
South Pasadena
 
 There is something special about a 1920’s Bungalow.  Possibly the large covered front porch or the original interior detailing or the distinctive roof lines.  Regardless, a Bungalow just feels like home.  Situated between Huntington Drive and Pine Street, 1816 Olive Avenue is a splendid example of the California Bungalow.  Built in 1923, this home has been beautifully remodeled and maintained throughout its nearly 100 years.   Truly a wonderful opportunity for a very fortunate buyer.
 
Through the covered front porch and original entry door is the living room.  The space is flooded with natural light from the many original wood windows and is complimented by a fireplace, base and crown moldings, and built-in bookcase.  The dining room is nicely sized and offers a large built-in buffet and another set of wood windows.  Off the central hall are the bedrooms.  The front and middle bedrooms are spacious with a full remodeled bathroom in between.  The third bedroom which was formerly the sunroom has its own ¾ bathroom and has also been remodeled.  The kitchen is beautifully redone with its own breakfast nook, tiled floors, butcherblock counters, and open cabinetry.  Off the kitchen is the mudroom/pantry and access to the rear yard. 
 
Behind the detached two-car garage is the 307 square foot bonus room.  The space has its own entrance and can be used as an office or ADU.  The open layout includes a kitchenette, refrigerator, closet, and a door to the garage. 
 
The grounds of the 8,104 square foot lot have been professional designed and landscaped.  The front yard has a mix of plants, flowers, and grass while the rear yard has a built-in barbecue, patio, fountain, several fruit trees and hedges, and plenty of space to entertain.
 
Additional features of note include newer roof, newer water heater, hardwood flooring, and central heating and air conditioning.
 
 Offered at $1,189,000
