Cons

MLS Listing Discrepancy: Bedroom count discrepancy between mls listing and other public or private record. mls listing bedroom count = 3, other record bedroom count = 2.
Age of Main Structure: Built in 1941, while extensively updated, the underlying infrastructure of the main house may still present potential for unforeseen maintenance or require specialized care compared to newer constructions.
Lack of Central Air Conditioning Mention: The description does not specify the presence of a central cooling system, which could be a significant comfort consideration for buyers during Pasadena's hotter months.
Main House Square Footage: The main house offers 1840 sq. ft. of living space. While the ADU adds considerable value, the primary residence's size might be considered modest for some buyers at this price point in Pasadena.
