Property Description

Arriving on the market for the first time in years, this special 1925 Tudor home occupies one of Pasadena's most sought-after enclaves and offers something increasingly rare: historic integrity and modern livability in genuine balance. Included in the sale is an adjacent 7,900 sq ft parcel, which could present an extraordinary opportunity to expand the property into a true private compound. Inside the home, original hardwood floors have been thoughtfully restored rather than replaced. Light moves generously through each room, dissolving the boundary between indoor and outdoor in the way only California architecture at its best can. Every update has been made with restraint and intention, honoring the home's craftsmanship while delivering the comfort today's buyer expects. The backyard unfolds as a genuine retreat: a pool at its center, designed equally for quiet mornings and effortless gatherings. A lower-level pool room with its own private entrance adds versatility and could be used as a guest suite, in-law quarters, or an income-producing residence. The home has also performed as a luxury short-term rental with a consistent five-star record, a testament to its presentation and appeal. Meanwhile the adjacent parcel invites vision: a tennis court, yoga retreat, or curated gardens are among the possibilities (buyer to verify permitted uses). Practical highlights also include approximately 600 sq ft of additional garage and basement storage space, and 2025 improvements such as a new garage door, dishwasher, and updated air conditioning to ensure a move-in-ready experience from day one. A home of history, presence, and real possibility. Thoughtfully preserved. Beautifully evolved. Ready for its next chapter. Please note: seller is a licensed real estate agent in the State of California, is the owner of the property, and is acting as the listing agent in this transaction.
