About This Home

As of March 2025

Two stunningly renovationed homes on a single lot: a 3-bedroom, 2-bath main house and a fully independent 2-bedroom, 1-bath ADU with its own separate address and utilities. Perfect for multi-generational living, or cover for your mortgage with the rental!

Nestled in the heart of Muir Heights is this quintessential 100-year-old California bungalow situated among some of the earliest homes in Pasadena. A fantastic West Pasadena location in a historical pocket neighborhood close to downtown restaurants, shops, and just minutes from the Rose Bowl.

This thoughtful renovation surpasses any property in the neighborhood and includes top-of-the-line appliances and plumbing including Samsung, Kholer, and Toto. All bathrooms feature luxurious rainforest showers. Hardwood and ceramic flooring throughout both homes.

The main home includes an open floor plan with an ensuite master and two other bedrooms with an adjacent shared bath.

The private rear yard includes a natural gas firepit and fiesta lighting.

The second home is a new 2-bedroom ADU (117 Howard) with a kitchen, laundry, and a luxury bath, including a rainforest shower. The bedrooms lead to their private patio, separate from the main residence.

The piece-of-mind package includes an automatic car gate, a programmable pedestrian gate, four exterior security cameras, and a Nest video doorbell.

New high-efficiency HVAC and tankless water heater systems in both homes are also part of this extensive renovation.

The tech package includes Alexa-controlled lighting, a state-of-the-art Samsung Smart Frig, Nest Thermostat, all voice-controlled or via a central app.

The drought-tolerant yard is planted with California Natives and controlled by a Rachio automatic watering system.
