Property Description
Tucked away on historic Marguerita Lane, this charming cul-de-sac home transports you to a timeless Spanish Colonial retreat. Originally built as an Artist Colony by renowned developer Dr. Alexander Schutt and his architect sons, the 16 Spanish-style homes lining the street have maintained their enduring allure. Recognized for architectural significance, the enclave was added to the National Register of Historic Places in 2009 and remains remarkably well-preserved. This Spanish Colonial Revival boasts Mills Act designation, offering substantial property tax relief--the most significant economic incentive in California for restoring and preserving historic homes.Known as the 'Birdcage House,' this home blends thoughtful modernizations with historic charm. A red clay tile roof, front fountain, and a distinctive plaster scroll on the entry wing wall welcome you. Once occupied by Dr. Schutt himself, the home opens to a warm living room with vaulted wood beam ceilings, a corner fireplace, and original hardwood floors. A French window leads to the architecturally significant birdcage balcony, enhancing its picturesque appeal.The open-concept kitchen flows effortlessly into the living space, ideal for entertaining. An elegant quartz island reflects the glow of an illuminating chandelier, while Jenn-Air appliances, premium Waterstone fixtures, a Latoscana farmhouse sink, ample storage, and an embossed tile backsplash make this space a chef's dream. Large windows bathe the room in natural light, and a French door opens to a lush backyard bordered by tea roses.Follow the arched hallway to the private quarters. The 3/4 bath features a luxurious Mr. Steam shower with a corner folding bench, complemented by stunning sconces. The half bath showcases a Victoria & Albert sink with a garden view. The secondary bedroom offers a spacious closet, while the primary suite boasts vaulted ceilings, French doors to the backyard, and a serene retreat-like ambiance.A separate studio with wood beam ceilings and French doors provides a flexible space for work or relaxation. Outside, the backyard is a private oasis with a tranquil fountain and lush landscaping.Conveniently located near transportation, freeways, shops, restaurants, the Playhouse District, Old Town, and South Lake Avenue, 234 Marguerita Lane offers a rare opportunity to own a piece of Pasadena's rich history while enjoying modern luxury.
