Tear down
The MLS description explicitly states 'Come Build your dream home' on a 'flat Lot,' and the provided images show a cleared, empty lot with no habitable structure. The original year built (1947) is over 50 years ago, and the current condition indicates that any previous structure is either demolished or unlivable, making the property's value based solely on the land for redevelopment.
Pros & Cons
Pros
Prime Location: Situated in the desirable Altadena hills, offering a prestigious address above Pasadena with excellent community appeal.
Exceptional Lot Potential: Features a rare, flat 7,102 sqft lot (138x56) explicitly marketed for new construction, providing an ideal canvas to 'Build your dream home'.
Captivating City Views: Boasts desirable city lights views, significantly enhancing the property's aesthetic appeal and potential future value.
Attractive Price Point: Recently reduced to $499,999, presenting a more competitive and accessible entry into the Altadena market for a development opportunity.
Desirable School District: Located within the highly-regarded Pasadena Unified School District, a strong draw for families.
Cons
Outdated Existing Structure: The 1947-built, 1140 sqft home with only 3 beds and 1 bath is functionally obsolete and likely requires demolition or extensive, costly renovation.
Significant Investment Required: The property's primary value is in the land, necessitating substantial additional investment for demolition and new construction or a comprehensive remodel.
Limited Current Livability: The small footprint and single bathroom of the existing residence offer very limited functional living space for contemporary needs, making it unsuitable for immediate occupancy by most buyers.
