*Fixer Opportunity* Presenting The Arthur Byrne House, a rare and unique opportunity to bring this property back to its former glory. With its historic integrity, the home provides an excellent foundation to be reimagined and tailored into your personal vision of a dream residence. Located on a desirable corner lot along South Oakland Avenue, this architecturally significant Pueblo Revival style home was designed in 1915 by architect Henry Banfield. With the added benefit of the Mills Act designation, new owners can enjoy substantial property tax savings while preserving and enhancing the home's historic character. The residence offers generous square footage, a central courtyard and superb period details throughout. Notable highlights include an original Batchelder tile fireplace in the living room, a tasteful library/study with an exquisite fireplace, hardwood floors, decorative tile, and a striking Pueblo inspired exterior. Outdoors, the landscaping was awarded by the Pasadena Beautiful Foundation. The expansive grounds are truly remarkable with multiple garage spaces that feature a three-car garage, plus a bonus garage ideal for storage, workshops, or additional vehicles. The oversized lot and prominent location further add to its long-term value. Rarely does a property of this architectural pedigree, scale, and location become available. It offers the chance to combine historic character with your own design choices, creating a truly special home in one of Pasadena's most sought-after neighborhoods.
