Marketing for 1137 Parkview Avenue, Pasadena:
Located on one of Linda Vista’s most prestigious streets, this extraordinary Georgian Colonial Revival estate offers luxury, privacy, and breathtaking views. Set behind a private entrance, the property spans more than one acre on a ridge overlooking the Rose Bowl. As a result, panoramic views of the San Gabriel Mountains surround the home.
Inspired by classic Southern architecture, expansive porches extend across both the front and rear of the residence. Meanwhile, impeccable landscaping enhances the estate’s beauty and privacy. The home underwent a complete redesign and reconstruction in 1999. Then, an extensive expansion added the southern wing and several outbuildings in 2002.
This remarkable compound includes a five-bedroom, ten-bathroom main residence, a guest and pool house, and a separate casita. Outside, multiple terraces create inviting spaces for entertaining. In addition, the lighted tennis court provides year-round recreation. The resort-style pool and spa complete the backyard retreat.
Inside, the grand foyer opens to a bright and spacious floor plan. Next, the great room flows into the formal living room and dining room. At the heart of the home, the gourmet kitchen features premium Wolf appliances and a sun-filled breakfast nook.
Meanwhile, the primary suite captures spectacular sunrise views. Dual walk-in closets provide abundant storage. The spa-inspired bathroom includes a steam shower and a freestanding soaking tub. Additionally, a private terrace creates the perfect place to relax.
