Property Description

Welcome to Hacienda Las Fuentes! Originally constructed in 1925 as one of only two homes along the west Arroyo Bank, 201 La Vereda stands today as a preserved masterpiece of early California elegance. This Mediterranean-style ranch estate sits majestically on a sprawling parcel within a secluded pocket of the Linda Vista neighborhood. The residence is a thoughtful study in authentic Mediterranean character. Polished terra-cotta tiles with custom inlays, vaulted beamed ceilings, and hand-forged wrought iron chandeliers anchor the interiors, while the soothing sound of tiled fountains provides a constant sensory connection to the home's rich history.The formal living room serves as a sophisticated introduction to the estate, defined by its soaring wood-beamed ceilings and monumental arched windows that frame the surrounding treetop views. Beyond the grand foyer, an expansive galleria with a barrel-vaulted ceiling creates a seamless transition into the private sleeping wing, ensuring a quiet separation from the home's social areas. The southern wing is dedicated to both culinary craft and hospitality. A light-filled formal dining room, graced by a panoramic arched window, offers views of the front gardens and heritage oak trees. Nearby, the chef's kitchen is equipped with a dishwasher, a built-in Viking refrigerator, an island with prep sink, dual ovens, and updated quartz surfaces. A fourth ensuite bedroom is tucked into this wing, offering a versatile space for a secluded home office or a long-term guest retreat. The crown jewel of the estate is the rear grounds--a true al fresco sanctuary designed for intimate or large-scale celebration. Multiple terraces provide distinct areas for lounging and dining amidst three Mediterranean-tiled fountains. The landscape features a built-in grill station, an easily accessible treehouse, and a raised terrace perfect for morning yoga or quiet reflection. A high-end custom smart home system ties everything together with app-controls for sound, lighting, and climate. Ideally located near the Rose Bowl, Old Town Pasadena - 201 La Vereda is more than a home; it is a storied setting for gathering and a testament to the enduring allure of classic Southern California architecture.
