1309 N Chester Ave

Nestled on a picturesque, tree-lined street in Pasadena’s cherished Bungalow Heaven, 1309 Chester is a rare and refined offering—a masterfully reimagined 1920s Tudor that seamlessly blends historic charm with modern sophistication. Completely rebuilt from the studs with the approval of Pasadena’s Historic Preservation Department, this home was thoughtfully designed to preserve its architectural integrity while embracing the functionality and comfort of contemporary living. Inside, every detail speaks to craftsmanship and care. European-style layered crown molding and wainscoting add depth and texture, while brand-new custom Douglas fir mullioned windows bathe the interior in natural light and frame tranquil views of the neighborhood. The floor plan flows effortlessly—open yet intimate—with three inviting bedrooms and two impeccably designed baths. The kitchen is a true centerpiece, where form meets function. Euro-style cabinetry, handcrafted ceramic-glazed tile, built-in storage, and precision-cut porcelain countertops create a space that feels more like a design atelier than a traditional kitchen. Beyond its beauty, the home has been fully updated for peace of mind: all-new electrical and plumbing, a new HVAC system, a new roof, and exterior re-stuccoing. The lush, professionally landscaped garden features a new irrigation system for easy upkeep and year-round enjoyment. 1309 Chester is more than a home—it’s a timeless sanctuary where past and present converge, offering a place to live, dream, and make history of your own.
