Welcome to your effortlessly cool Mid-Century modern in Pasadena's San Rafael Heights. Meticulously updated, artfully landscaped, and set on a quiet, tree-lined street in one of the city's most coveted neighborhoods, 1025 Nithsdale Rd checks all the boxes. Before you enter, standout curb appeal serves as a fitting prelude to the beauty that awaits within. Once inside, open living spaces flow together effortlessly, sumptuous natural materials are showcased throughout, and an abundance of windows and skylights fill the home with warm, radiant light. Among the many highlights, the kitchen may prove to be your favorite. Style and function are perfectly paired in this stunning display of MCM design. With custom walnut cabinetry, sleek granite counters, top-tier appliances, and sliding glass doors to the front patio, all that's missing is a simmering bolognese and your favorite Coltrane album setting the mood. In the living room, a wall of windows opens to a large entertaining patio, creating a seamless indoor-outdoor experience. All three bedrooms are spacious and light-filled. The west wing hosts two ensuites, including the primary suite, complete with a walk-in closet and a spa-inspired bath. Outside, an expansive backyard welcomes everything from pool parties to outdoor brunches to peaceful reverie. A detached studio overlooks the sparkling pool and provides a welcoming yoga, art, or meditation space, while a large, finished garage offers additional flexible use. Refined, intentional, and quietly beautiful, 1025 Nithsdale offers MCM design at its most livable.
