Property is extensive renovation needed.
Built in 1932 with no evidence of recent renovation; the kitchen is dated and non-functional, window AC units indicate a lack of modern HVAC systems, and the interior shows significant wear and tear requiring a full rehab.
The property has a large lot size, which is more than 4 times of its living area. lot size in square feet = 10013, living area = 1665.
The oversized 10,013 square foot lot is a rare find in Pasadena, featuring a detached two-car garage with strong potential for an ADU conversion to increase property value or rental income.
This 1932 Spanish Revival home retains its original charm and serves as a high-quality 'blank canvas' for buyers looking to restore a classic architectural gem in an established neighborhood.

The current configuration of three bedrooms and only one bathroom is a significant drawback for modern families and will likely require a costly layout reconfiguration.
As a 'reimagine' opportunity, the property likely requires substantial capital investment to update its 1930s-era systems and finishes to meet contemporary living standards.
A rare opportunity to reimagine a classic 1932 Spanish Revival home on a beautifully proportioned 10,013 square foot lot on a tree-lined street in one of Pasadena's most established neighborhoods. With 3 bedrooms, 1 bathroom, and 1,665 square feet of living space, the home retains the architectural character and charm that define this style, and presents a genuine blank canvas for buyers with vision. A dedicated laundry room and a small basement, a true rarity in the Los Angeles area, add functional depth to the property. The oversized lot is a standout feature in its own right, offering a spacious backyard, a long driveway, and a detached 2-car garage with strong ADU conversion potential, subject to City of Pasadena approval. Whether the goal is a primary residence with a rental unit, a multigenerational setup, or simply a prized piece of real estate to hold and improve over time, the bones and lot size here open the door to a wide range of possibilities. Located just minutes from the Rose Bowl, Old Town Pasadena, the Arroyo Seco, and the burgeoning dining and retail corridor along Lincoln Avenue, with easy freeway access to Downtown Los Angeles and the broader San Gabriel Valley. Properties on lots of this size, in a location this strong, do not come along often in Pasadena.
