Agent Remarks

On the market for the first time in nearly nine decades, this rare Altadena property combines architectural pedigree with exceptional potential. Designed by acclaimed architect Calvin Straub, the front residence serves as the centerpiece of a three-structure compound totaling approximately 3,000 square feet. Each building is thoughtfully arranged around a central garden and yard, enhanced by a tranquil pond. From the upper level of the rear residence, enjoy peekaboo views of Downtown Los Angeles on clear days. This distinctive property is not only rich in history and character but also an exceptional investment opportunity. Buyers can choose to restore and enhance the existing compound or reimagine the site with one or two larger residences. Located just moments from Downtown Pasadena, the Jet Propulsion Laboratory, and the Rose Bowl, the property offers a rare blend of heritage, location, and development versatility in a highly desirable area. A rare opportunity to own this property, where history, character, and potential come together in a truly distinguished offering.
