Home of the Week: A Greene & Greene showcase in Pasadena
This beautifully preserved Craftsman residence, a Charles and Henry Greene design built 113 years ago, showcases expert carpentry of the era with its rich paneling, tapered posts and cloud-lift motifs.
With a wood shake exterior and brick-lined front porch, the two-story home opens through a front door featuring teak inset paneling and stained glass by Emil Lange, a former principal for Tiffany Studios in New York. A two-story leaded-glass bay window in the main stairway — perhaps the home’s most distinguishing feature — was introduced in 1929 by architect Garrett Van Pelt.
