Property Description

Exceptional opportunity to own a 1914 Craftsman, a contributing property within the coveted Rose Villa-Oakdale Historic District. Cherished by the same family for 70 years, the 3-bedroom, 2-bathroom residence spans 1,583 square feet on a generous 7,506 square foot lot. Recent sales comparables in this esteemed, San Marino-adjacent neighborhood support additions and complete remodels. Step onto the broad, columned front porch — a hallmark of Craftsman design — and into a spacious, light-filled living room rich with original detail: hardwood floors, wood moldings, pocket doors, casement windows, period hardware, and built-in cabinetry. The same authentic Craftsman character carries throughout the home, with original interior doors, pocket windows, preserved moldings, and the kind of original detail that simply cannot be replicated today. This home is an excellent candidate for the Mills Act for potential property tax benefits; application and approval required through the City of Pasadena (buyer to verify eligibility). Located on a quiet, tree-lined street, just a few blocks from Caltech, the Huntington Gardens, and South Lake Avenue. Character homes in this highly sought-after neighborhood don't stay on the market for long. This is a rare chance to renovate, restore, or reimagine this special property — transforming it into one of Pasadena's architectural jewels in one of the city's most character-rich and tightly held historic neighborhoods.
