Description
Some homes ask you to compromise. This one invites you to dream. Tucked into one of Northeast Pasadena's most cherished neighborhoods, this 1945 California bungalow sits just moments from Victory Park and the heart of East Washington Village - where the Pasadena Saturday Farmers' Market, tree-lined streets, and a genuine sense of community make everyday life feel intentional. Move in, make it yours over time, or remodel - either way, this is your opportunity to bring your own taste, your own vision, and your own story to a home that's ready for its next chapter.This classic 1945 California bungalow features three bedrooms, two bathrooms, an open living space with a fireplace, a sunroom off the kitchen, solar panels, and a detached garage with approximately 200 square feet of bonus space. Approved plans for an ADU convey with the sale, adding significant flexibility and long-term value from day one. The next owner receives a rare asset: a canvas in a neighborhood that offers few opportunities. Whether you're drawn to restoring original character or envisioning something entirely fresh, this home gives you the freedom to do it right.East Washington Village is home to some of Pasadena's favorite independent businesses and is one of the most consistently in-demand neighborhoods - architecturally rich, deeply community-oriented, and ideally situated. Victory Park is just steps away, serving as a true neighborhood anchor with 24 acres of open green space and a popular community gathering place. Old Town Pasadena, the Arroyo, and easy freeway access are all within reach, making this one of the most livable pockets in the San Gabriel Valley.Recent neighborhood sales have exceeded $2.2M - a clear signal of where this enclave is headed and what a well-executed home here can achieve. For a buyer willing to invest, the upside is built into the address.This home is for the buyer who sees potential as an advantage. An owner-occupant ready to personalize and put down roots. A design-forward dreamer with a wish list and the vision to execute it. Or a savvy investor who recognizes the value of getting into a premium corridor before the next sale sets the bar even higher. With approved ADU plans already in hand, the path to added income or multigenerational living is shorter than you think. Don't miss this home and make it 'Where Your Home Happens.'
