The detached, finished two-car garage includes built-in storage, a wall-hanging organization system, and a dedicated sub-panel wired for 220-volt electric vehicle charging.The property may also offer opportunities for supplemental filming income--previous owners hosted scenes from the 2023 film 80 for Brady, and the home continues to be of interest to location scouts. With its blend of period craftsmanship, curated modern comforts, and a highly walkable South Pasadena location known for beloved shops, parks, and award-winning schools, this exceptional residence embodies both historic charm and contemporary convenience.
