790 N El Molino Avenue

Set behind a hedge and gates on a sprawling 12,379-square-foot lot shaded by mature trees, this 1914 Craftsman is a rare study in architectural pedigree the kind of residence that reveals itself slowly, in layers of hand-finished detail. Across 3,544 square feet, original character has been thoughtfully preserved and restored, from rich hardwood floors to sculptural crown molding that lends every room a sense of permanence and craft. The main level unfolds with quiet grandeur: a formal living room anchored by a classic fireplace, a dining room made for long evenings of entertaining, and a chef’s kitchen where a generous center island and breakfast bar invite both culinary ambition and casual gathering. An adjoining den, warmed by its own fireplace mantle, offers an intimate counterpoint to the home’s more formal spaces. Upstairs, the primary suite serves as a private sanctuary a spacious walk-in closet, an en-suite bath with soaking tub and separate shower, and a private balcony that opens to the surrounding treetops. Outside, mature fruit trees punctuate the landscape, while a gated driveway accommodates up to eight vehicles alongside a detached two-car garage a rare offering of scale and privacy in the heart of the city. The expansive yard opens the door to future possibility, with ample room for an ADU or pool. All of this just moments from Pasadena’s finest the Rose Bowl, Old Town’s restaurants and boutiques, a storied college campus, and easy access to major highways.
