Overview
2 Bedroom, 1 Bathroom, Sleeps 5
Charming 1920's Bungalow, steps away from California Institute of Technology and South Lake shopping district. This 950 +/- square feet single family home with plenty of windows and natural light has a large backyard with sitting area, and just a few blocks from San Marino's mansions.
It includes a full working kitchen (gas stove) and a European washer/dryer combo for space saving.
Two Bedrooms, one with queen size bed, the other with two twin beds plus a stylish forty's sleeper sofa in the living room.
Wireless Internet, TV with DVD player. Clean linens and towels, iron and ironing board. Hardwood floor, original artwork makes this home a fresh experience, giving a Southern California feel.
New window Air Conditioning in both rooms will keep the house cool.
Outside sitting area.
Do not be surprise to find local organic eggs in your welcome basket and with a little luck a local tour in our Traction Avant almost as old as the cottage....
The house is located a block from Cal Tech, two blocks from South Lake shopping District. Less than a mile from the Historic Langham Hotel founded by the Huntingtons. A little over a mile from the Huntington Library in San Marino which is a lovely walk. In the opposite direction about the same distance sit the The Pacific Asia Museum and the Pasadena Museum of California Art. A mile further is the famed Norton Simon Museum with Old Town Pasadena's exciting venues of bars and wonderful restaurants.
The historic Santa Anita Race Track is but a 10 minute drive, and we are 5 blocks from the Rose Parade route on Colorado Blvd. and 3 miles from the Rose Bowl.
If you like hiking, the trails at the top of Lake Avenue will be a delight with spectacular views of Southern California, including Catalina Island.
Public transportation is available close by with the Metro Gold Line to downtown Los Angeles and beyond.
Several grocery stores (Traders Joe's, Fresh&Easy, Pavilions) are within walking distance (2-3 blocks) as well as a Peet's coffee and a Starbucks. Whole Food is less than 2 miles away.
On South Lake Ave. you will find a number of restaurants and shopping choices.
Movie theaters are close by.

The chickens are not on the property, you just get fresh eggs!!
Thank You & Happy Travels.

Reunion at Quiltcon
Three friends met for a quilt convention. The minute we walked in, we were captured by the nostalgic setting of our bungalow. It is very clean and the provided "welcome food" surprises delighted us. Bruno, our host, is steps away and made us feel like we were visiting family cousins. The bungalow is close to our favorite food stores, the convention center and Cal Tech. It is a very private (off the street) setting. We would definitely re-book here if we are in Pasadena again.
Great place to stay
The bungalow was fantastic. It is very well maintained and really nice inside. The beds were very comfortable. Very close to downtown Pasadena. Cynthia was great, she has the bungalow well stocked and she was very helpful. Yes, she does provide fresh eggs!
A gorgeous bungalow
This two bedroom bungalow was perfect for a research trip. Gorgeously appointed, comfortable for a longer stay, easy to book. I would recommend it to anyone.
Perfect location, beautiful neighborhood, and a lovely cottage.
I stayed here with my family of 4 and it was the perfect place for us. The location is ideal in Pasadena with easy walking distance to the main street with shops and restaurants. The neighborhood is safe and beautiful and the cottage itself is quaint and adorable. Communication with the host was excellent. We would definitely request to stay here again.
Thanksgiving Stay
The bungalow was every bit as charming as its picture. Situated on a quiet side street it is within easy walking distance of coffee shops, grocery stores and other shops. The owners are wonderful hosts. We highly recommend this property.
Lovely and Peaceful
The home is better than advertised. It is quaint, quiet and has everything a weary traveler may need. The home was clean and comfortable. The owner Bruno was charming and took the time to show us his beautiful car collection, the fruit trees in the yard and of course the chickens :). This home is only a couple of blocks from Lake Street so there are many shops and restaurants within an easy walk. We chose this home because we didn't want to rent a car and we prefer to walk most places -- and this home's proximity was perfect. We used Uber but want to mention that there is a long private driveway for those that decide to rent a car.
If you stay here, you will enjoy the vibe. Happy travels to all !!
