A transformation begins as the journey up Glen Oaks Boulevard ensues, out of the city and out of the harshness of concrete and through the lush greenery, mature trees and inviting scenery that takes you away from the day and into another mindset of... peacefulness and relaxation. Seemingly a world away, the brief 1.4 mile, 5 minute drive to 1401 Glen Oaks from the freeway sets the stage for a stately home on the hill with views to mesmerize, enthrall and entertain. The Rose Bowl, the city of Pasadena and the majestic San Gabriel mountains are displayed from nearly every room in this luxurious home. The formal entry wows with direct visual access to the spectacular views, flanked by a twin pairing of grand rooms with tray ceilings and bay windows - the living room with marble fireplace and the equally impressive dining room with built-in cabinetry. Proceed forward, towards the beckoning vistas, and move to the right to explore the wood-floored kitchen with Gaggenau double oven, Bosch stove top with tilt-out paneled hood and a countertop surround of granite. Utilize the pass-through to the den with a warm fireplace and breakfast area for convenient snack time and informal serving. Just down the hall is the laundry room and a maid's quarters with a three-quarter bathroom and a few steps further is the massive three car garage of over 700 square feet with an attic to match. To the left of the twin grand rooms is the library, guest bedroom with lozenge-windows and full bathroom, powder room and primary suite which boasts his and-her bathrooms and closets. The expansive back patio is ideal for dining al-fresco, day-dreaming or entertaining en masse with Pepper trees and native foliage that frame beautiful views. MLS# P1-27379 Read More
