About This Lot
As of January 2026388 E Pentagon: Once home to a cozy 2-bedroom, 2-bath residence just shy of 1,000 sq ft, this approximately 6,500 sq ft lot now awaits its next chapter. You will find this gem tucked away at the end of a peaceful private street. Sold as land only, this lot offers serenity and privacy in Altadena with mountain views, while also offering quick access to the Altadena Library, Christmas Tree Lane, Mariposa Village, and The Lincoln Corridor. It’s also just minutes away from Pasadena. The site has completed both Phase 1 and Phase 2 debris removal by the Army Corps of Engineers, providing an opportunity for new beginnings. Take full advantage of existing fire rebuild rights and fast-track ADU opportunities—ideal for building a custom home for multi-generational living or income potential. This is more than an empty lot. It’s an invitation to shape the future of a beloved community, and to create your personal oasis in the foothills of Beautiful Altadena.
