Situated in a premier South Pasadena hillside enclave, the home offers sweeping panoramic vistas of city lights and hills from multiple vantage points, significantly enhancing its long-term value.
With over 2,300 square feet of living space including a lower level with separate access, the floor plan is ideal for multigenerational living, guest quarters, or a professional home office.
Multiple expansive decks on different levels provide seamless access to the outdoors, maximizing the property's footprint for entertaining and enjoying the scenic surroundings.
The property is marketed as a 'reimagination' opportunity with 'exceptional bones,' indicating that substantial capital investment is required to modernize the 1941 interiors and systems.
The steep hillside setting, while providing views, likely results in limited usable flat yard space and may present higher maintenance requirements for the lot and foundation.
