Property Description
Historically Intact Craftsman in HPOZ! Conceived of and originally constructed by noted builder Christian M. Hansen, this spacious home on an almost 9000 square foot lot has been partially restored by the owners to recapture the majesty of its original façade. With a large front porch, river-rock columns, fireplace, stained glass, crown moldings, and abundant natural wood elements throughout, this 4- bedroom home highlights all the features of this popular architectural style. Further, with such upgrades as copper plumbing, central air and heat, a newer electrical panel, and a bonus room with bath attached to the garage, at over 2000 square feet this home provides all the comfort you expect from today’s lifestyle. Being located in the El Sereno-Berkshire Historic Craftsman District HPOZ means that you will be surrounded by meticulously restored architectural masterpieces, and that any future development will only improve the character of the neighborhood. This amazing property is adjacent to South Pasadena, and about a block from popular Charlie’s Trio Restaurant. Come and see one of Los Angeles’s best-kept secrets for yourself, and discover El Sereno as you’ve never seen it before.

No recorded sales in this range. Select All available for older records; missing records do not mean the home never sold.
ZIP averages use publicly displayable closed sales from our licensed MLS feed, matched to the same ZIP and exact property type. Months with fewer than 3 sales are omitted; the current month is incomplete. Lines connect available monthly observations across gaps and do not represent measured prices in missing months. These averages are not adjusted for size, condition, or location within the ZIP, and are not an appraisal. Feed coverage may not include every sale. All available shows the available home and ZIP history, with mortgage rates over the same dates.
Mortgage benchmark: Freddie Mac Primary Mortgage Market Survey®. © Freddie Mac. Weekly national 30-year fixed rates, not APRs or a loan quote. Actual terms vary. Methodology changed in November 2022. The chart does not establish that interest-rate changes caused a home’s price changes.
Lines connect recorded asking and sale prices. They are visual guides, not estimates of the home’s value between those dates.
