Charming Pasadena Traditional with Pride of Ownership
Welcome to 1149 Avoca Street—a beautifully maintained home on a peaceful, tree-lined street in one of Pasadena’s most cherished neighborhoods. Lovingly cared for by the same owner for over 44 years, this home exudes warmth, character, and a true sense of home.
et on an expansive, flat lot, the property offers spacious living with timeless details and thoughtful updates made over the years. From the well-kept exterior to the inviting interior spaces, it’s clear this home has been cared for with pride.
The large backyard is perfect for entertaining, gardening, or even future expansion—and there’s room to dream, whether it’s adding a pool, ADU, or simply enjoying the open space.
Located just minutes from the Rose Bowl, Old Town Pasadena, and top local schools, this is a rare opportunity to own a move-in ready home in a classic Pasadena setting. The owner has already found their next chapter, and this beloved home is ready for yours.
Don’t miss this one—it’s the kind of home that doesn’t come around often.
