1431 Rutan in Pasadena California is a 2 bedroom 1 bath home with 937 SqFt.

This home has been described as, REDUCED, RESTED & READY! Located on a quiet 1-block street in Northeast Pasadena, and according to the neighborhood historian, this unique 1938 Bungalow was built by Claire Rutan (hence the street name). Mrs. Rutan built her own house mid-block and commissioned her builder Edward Aines to construct the 13 other character-filled Bungalows on this sweet street. It's back on the market because the buyer lost his job. The heirs have scrubbed it, refinished all hardwood floors, added a fresh coat of white paint & new vinyl flooring in both the bath & kitchen. It sparkles in spite of its need for updates. Other amenities include an adorable, light-filled breakfast area with built-ins & a mountain view, laundry room inside, 1-car detached garage. Both bedrooms have French door leading to enclosed back patio & covered patio/porch creating a wonderful outdoor space. An exceptional condo alternative. Potentially historic, property may be candidate for Mills Act property tax reduction.
