One of Few Surviving Homes of the Original Indiana County Colonists
Carol Majors, an agent affiliated with the San Marino office of Coldwell Banker Realty, has listed a Cultural Landmark property for $1,750,000. Located at 215 Orange Grove Ave. in Pasadena, Calif., the four-bedroom, four-bathroom and approximately 2,867-square-foot home is one of the few surviving homes of the original Indiana County Colonists.
“The Porter House is one of the region's most historic properties,” said Majors. “This stunning example of Queen Anne style was built circa 1875 as the family home of Andrew O. Porter, one of two founders of Pasadena and South Pasadena.”
Showcasing exterior corbels and gables, oversized multi-paned windows, soaring 14-foot ceilings, deep-detailed moldings and hardwood floors, the home encompasses a formal entry, grand living room with fireplace and built-in bench and a formal dining room with sleek modern chandelier, traditional butler's pantry and access to the large kitchen. With a sun porch and separate entry, the master bedroom has an en-suite bathroom with a claw foot tub. The spacious attic can be transformed into the media room. Offering almost half an acre of California outdoor living with multiple areas for dining, relaxing, entertaining, gardening and play, the grounds include a three-car garage, rear porch overlooking the lush side lawn shaded by a towering oak tree, a veggie garden and various spots for gathering with friends and family.
