Description

Nestled on a desirable corner lot in Pasadena's charming Normandie Heights neighborhood, this thoughtfully updated Cape Cod-style cottage blends timeless character with clean, modern design. From the moment you arrive, the inviting Dutch front door sets the tone for the warmth and style found within. Inside, hardwood flooring and an open, airy layout create a seamless flow throughout the main living spaces. Dual-pane windows invite abundant natural light, enhancing the home's fresh, purposeful aesthetic. To the right of the entry, the fully remodeled kitchen impresses with oversized tile flooring, a generous island topped with stone countertops, stainless steel appliances, a sleek range hood, custom cabinetry, and designer lighting. Just beyond, a well-designed laundry and mudroom area offers a side-by-side washer and dryer, a convenient folding counter, a charming accent wall with hanging pegs, and direct access to the side patio and detached one-car garage. The dining area, highlighted by a statement light fixture, opens effortlessly to the living room, where exposed wood-beam ceilings add warmth and architectural interest. A large picture window fills the space with sunlight, creating an inviting setting for everyday living and entertaining. Down the bedroom hallway, thoughtful details such as wainscoting and stylish lighting continue the home's cohesive design. A spacious secondary bedroom features hardwood floors, dual-pane windows, a lighted ceiling fan, and ample closet space. The remodeled hall bath showcases a stone-topped vanity, subway-tile tub and shower surround, and penny-tile flooring. A cozy third bedroom with mirrored closet doors sits nearby. At the end of the hall, the primary suite offers a peaceful retreat with hardwood flooring, a lighted ceiling fan, a walk-in closet, and a beautifully remodeled ensuite bath complete with basketweave tile flooring, a stone countertop vanity, and a glass-enclosed shower tiled to the ceiling. Outdoors, the private east-facing yard is framed by tall hedges, creating an ideal space for relaxing, entertaining, or weekend barbecues on the grassy lawn. A brick paver driveway leads to the detached one-car garage, spacious enough for a large SUV and outfitted with storage shelving. Just moments from Pasadena's renowned dining, shopping, and convenient commuter routes, this turnkey Normandie Heights gem offers classic charm, modern comfort, and effortless living in one of the city's most beloved neighborhoods.
