Property Description
Some houses are updated by erasing what came before. Others are cared for in a way that allows their character to endure.
Built in 1938 and located within Pasadena's Craftsman Heights Landmark District, this two-bedroom, one-bath traditional bungalow offers 1,072 square feet filled with the details that give a vintage home its warmth, individuality and sense of place.
Original hardwood floors carry through the living and dining spaces, joined by graceful period openings and anchored by the home's original fireplace and mantel. Period-appropriate sconces complement the fireplace, while the original dining-room doorbell is one of those wonderful small details that reminds you this house has a story.
The kitchen is perhaps the home's most remarkable survivor. Rather than being remodeled into something it was never intended to be, it remains largely original, retaining its cabinetry, tile work and sink. The linoleum tile floor was replaced in a period-appropriate pattern, while a vintage, period-correct stove—complete with its original salt and pepper shakers—provides an extraordinary connection to the era. The stove will remain with the property. Just off the kitchen, a separate laundry room adds practical space while keeping everyday household functions tucked away.
In the bathroom, restoration was approached with the same respect for the home's character. Period-appropriate tile was installed while preserving the original bathtub, allowing the room to feel at home within a 1937 bungalow rather than disconnected from it.
Set on a 4,362-square-foot lot, the property also offers a gated driveway with additional off-street parking and a detached one-car garage at the rear.
What makes this bungalow special isn't simply its age. It's what has survived: original materials, thoughtful details and the unmistakable character that comes from a house that has not been stripped of its past.
For someone who believes originality is worth preserving, 590 Prescott Avenue offers something increasingly difficult to recreate—and an opportunity to become the next steward of a very special Pasadena home.
