Welcome to 888 South Pasadena Avenue, Pasadena and discover an opportunity to restore and revitalize this 1927 Spanish Revival-style single-family home in the Pasadena Avenue Historic District. This home features an L-shaped floorplan with a one-story northern wing and a two-story southern wing. With 3 bedrooms and 1 bath, this home offers approximately 1917 sqft of living space on an approximately 11,677 sqft spacious lot. The exterior of the home is clad in smooth stucco with a sloping stucco chimney with two clay pots centered on the north elevation. Enter through the single-leaf main entry door that was constructed of vertical wood planks with a single square glazed panel covered by an iron grill. The interior invites your imagination to restore this historic home to its former glory. A two-car garage at the rear of the house with stucco exteriors and a pent roof of red barrel tile with a driveway could be potentially converted into an accessory dwelling unit (ADU), allowing for extended family living or more. Don't miss the opportunity to take advantage of the Mills Act, making this home eligible for significant property tax savings. Don't miss the chance to embrace and cherish this historic gem!
