    What's special

    PLEASE DO NOT DISTURB TENANTS.In the heart of Pasadena, this unique offering presents the best of both worlds: two fully detached homes, each with its own private, gated backyard, set on over 10,000 square feet of lushly landscaped grounds.The front residence is a charming early 20th-century Craftsman Bungalow, featuring two bedrooms and one bath, and capturing the warmth and character of a bygone era. Tucked quietly behind it, the Spanish-style home offers one bedroom and one bath, showcasing original built-ins, beautiful wood detailing, and the distinctive artistry that defines Pasadena's historic architecture.Both homes enjoy soft natural light throughout the day, mature trees, tranquil garden settings, and separate gated yard spaces, creating a true sense of privacy. The property also includes two dedicated parking spaces adjacent to a one-and-a-half-car garage.Ideally located just two blocks north of Washington Park and minutes from Pasadena City College, Caltech, and the 210 Freeway, this property balances peaceful living with exceptional convenience.Whether imagined as a multi-generational compound, or that income property you've been looking with enormous potential, the possibilities are truly endless.Both homes are currently tenant-occupied.
