A historic Pasadena neighborhood
In an area that was once brimming with orange groves, Orange Heights was established in the early 1900s and became a hub for homes that typified the Arts and Crafts movement, thanks to their high level of craftsmanship, style and details. More than 100 years later, the neighborhood retains much of that early 20th-century charm, thanks to its listing on the National Register of Historic Places. Additionally, it's conveniently located near major freeways and many of Pasadena's exciting features, like Old Town Pasadena and The Rose Bowl. “I think buyers choose Orange Heights because of the charm of the neighborhood and the walkability — it’s about a 30-minute walk to Old Town Pasadena. And I think people are drawn to the types of homes there,” says Steven Galindo, Realtor at The Agency.
Orange Heights sits just south of The San Gabriel Mountains.
The Rose Bowl is less than a mile away from Orange Heights.

Classic California homes
Orange Heights’ residential blocks are lined with Craftsman and California bungalows from the 1910s to the 1930s featuring clapboard siding, large front-facing windows, wide roofs with overhanging eaves and spacious front porches. Many of them boast roomy, manicured front yards and back yards large enough for a detached garage. The streetscapes are picturesque: views of the San Gabriel Mountains to the north, homes on elevated lots reinforced by arroyo and concrete retaining walls and closely spaced mature trees lining each residential street, complete with wide sidewalks, perfect for an after-dinner stroll. Home prices in the neighborhood range from $760,000 to a little under $2 million.
