Description
Set within the prestigious Oak Knoll area, perfectly positioned below the iconic Langham Hotel, 970 Old Mill Road is a residence that captures the imagination from the moment you arrive. This property boasts exceptional curb appeal, showcasing a timeless Traditional English architectural style with an elegant French influence, most notably seen in its striking, steep-sloping roofline. An enchanting front garden with the classic original brick driveway provides a warm, inviting welcome to this storied Pasadena address. The location offers close proximity to the historic Old Mill and Lacy Park. Inside, the home offers a rare canvas for your vision. While one could comfortably move in and enjoy the space with a few thoughtful system upgrades, the property also presents a remarkable opportunity for a transformative renovation. You have two distinct front entries to choose from; one leads through a charming patio and garden that is perfect for welcoming guests. The other is found by following the brick driveway. Upon entering the grand living room, you are greeted by its impressive scale and a large picture window. The room is defined by its timeless character, anchored by a Batchelder fireplace, a piece of historic artistry that speaks to the home’s rich heritage. It is a space designed to host; the living room is rumored to have served as an early rehearsal space for the Pasadena Civic Orchestra, where musicians and guests would enjoy refreshments on the side patio. The floor plan is incredibly functional. From the living room, the layout offers open sightlines through to the dining area and additional living space, leading straight out to the back deck. Stepping outside, the large deck offers immediate peace and a private backyard experience. The property sits on a large flat lot with a unique vantage point above the neighborhood, providing an expansive sense of horizon. The landscape is a blank canvas for your design, currently featuring a tangerine tree with a record crop this year. 970 Old Mill Road is more than a house; it is a storybook home waiting for its next chapter. Whether you’re looking to preserve its classic charm or infuse it with modern luxury, there is endless potential to create your dream home in one of Southern California’s most coveted neighborhoods.
