The Tilghman Swaim House is a Cultural Heritage Landmark. Built by Greene and Greene master builder Peter Hall, and designed in the Chicago Prairie style by Parker O. Wright in 1911. More particularly, it was built in the rare sub style known as “Classic Box”. Most of this home has its original detailing inside and out, and it appears that most of the exposed wood has never been painted over. Details throughout, hardwood floors, double stairway, original double hung windows, clapboard siding, all on one of Pasadena’s most historic tree lined streets. Greene and Greene builders were known for their level of detail and quality, you can see it throughout, and most of the home was built with redwood, per the seller who’s been there for almost 30 years.

There’s a separate legal duplex in the rear that totals 1,200 square feet, built in 1954, and are both currently rented to long-term tenants. This is not a foreclosure or a short sale, and will be sold City of Pasadena Compliance, and with termite clearance. Who doesn’t love extra income? Perhaps you can make this into a large family compound. Please don’t disturb occupants of the duplex, as viewing will only be upon contract acceptance.

The entire property is being offered with a home warranty. Be sure to click for the layout and building biography.
