Last month, the most expensive home sold was 1776 Linda Vista Avenue Pasadena. This luxury home overlooking the Rose Bowl was previously listed for $4,500,000 and sold before going in the MLS (Multiple Listing Service) for $4,425,000. The seller purchased this home in March of this year for $3,812,000 and sold it in two months. By looking at the prior listing, it doesn’t appear to be a flip.
When evaluating pricing, it’s best not to focus on just one comparable but to evaluate as a whole. I am sure there is an explanation as to what happened. It could be many things.
Marketing for 1776 Linda Vista Avenue Pasadena:
Nothing short of magical, this one-of-a-kind one-point-eight-seven-acre estate captures Pasadena’s rich history. Iconic Gamble Lamp-capped gates create privacy and seclusion. The five-bedroom, six-and-a-half-bath home overlooks the lush Arroyo. It also offers sweeping views of the Angeles Crest Mountains, golf course, and Rose Bowl Stadium.
Beyond the home, stone-lined trails wind through mature oak trees. Lush California forest surrounds the property. Hidden lookouts invite exploration. Together, these grounds create a rare sense of privacy and discovery.
From the circular drive, a large front lawn leads to the dramatic entry. The foyer connects the home’s main living spaces. Next, the stylish living room features a Craftsman fireplace. Large windows frame the grounds in three directions.
Nearby, the attached library offers a quiet retreat. Custom built-in shelving adds character and function.
The well-designed cook’s kitchen makes entertaining easy. It features a Viking range and three ovens. A Sub-Zero refrigerator and two dishwashers add convenience. From the kitchen, step into the sunny breakfast area and family room. Alternatively, continue to the formal dining room and adjacent butler’s pantry.
Finally, the ground floor includes a tranquil yoga studio. A curved wall of windows fills the room with natural light. Throughout the home, thoughtful design connects the interiors with the surrounding landscape.
