Welcome to 465 Alpine Street--an exquisitely maintained 1915 Craftsman residence nestled in the heart of Pasadena's coveted Madison Heights neighborhood. Blending timeless architectural character with thoughtful modern upgrades, this home is a rare offering. Step through the covered front porch into a light-filled interior showcasing rich millwork, wide-framed openings, and a stunning Batchelder-style fireplace that anchors the living room. The formal dining room features original built-ins and elegant period details, creating a warm, inviting space for gatherings. Gatherings can spill over into the beautifully landscaped backyard, complete with a generous deck, overhead trellis, built-in seating, fruit trees, and flowering gardens--a true retreat and an indoor / outdoor living dream. The oversized eat-in kitchen is a chef's dream--fully updated with granite counters, marble backsplash, custom cabinetry, under-cabinet lighting, Viking range with grill, wine fridge, and a skylight that floods the space with natural light. Three spacious bedrooms and two updated bathrooms offer flexibility and comfort, while a large basement and detached two-car garage add valuable storage and utility space. Additional highlights include dual-zone central air, forced air heat, seismic retrofitting, and original hardwood floors throughout. Ideally located moments from South Lake Avenue, Caltech, and the best of Pasadena, this architectural gem offers the perfect balance of historic charm and modern living.
