Pasadena Real Estate Agent
There are so many wonderful pockets in Pasadena, but here are three of my favorites:
Linda Vista, perched on the ridge above the Arroyo, is one of Pasadena’s most prestigious and peaceful neighborhoods. Its winding streets feature architect-designed homes, panoramic canyon views, and mature oaks — all just minutes from Old Town Pasadena and La Cañada. Many homes in Linda Vista enjoy breathtaking canyon, city, and mountain views, with architecture ranging from classic Spanish Revival and Mid-Century Modern to thoughtfully updated contemporaries. I have many friends who live in Linda Vista, and they just love it. We often take walks around the Rose Bowl, sit in their front yards and listen to concerts, or hit the Rose Bowl Flea Market together once a month. Median Home Price is 2.18
Bungalow Heaven is a National Historic Landmark District known for its beautifully preserved Craftsman-style homes built between 1900 and 1930. Tree-lined streets, wide front porches, and original architectural details give the area a timeless, almost storybook feel. Homes here often feature built-in cabinetry, river rock fireplaces, and hand-crafted woodwork — showcasing the artistry that made Pasadena the birthplace of the American Arts & Crafts movement.

Madison Heights is one of Pasadena’s most beloved and architecturally rich neighborhoods, located just south of Old Town. It’s known for its gracious historic homes, wide streets, and old-world character. Many of the residences date back to the early 1900s, featuring Craftsman, Spanish Colonial, and Tudor Revival styles that reflect Pasadena’s golden era of architecture. Median Home Price 1.6
Pasadena has so much to offer! A few of my favorite local spots include:
- The GOAT: Houston’s Restaurant — best martini of your life
- Agnes Restaurant & Cheesery — beautifully designed with brick walls, amber plaid booths, and the most delicious curated cheese boards.
- Union — a small, cozy pasta restaurant where I always order the lobster squid ink pasta with truffle butter. (You can also get takeout pasta dinners for the family!)
And for the kids:
- Kidspace Children’s Museum — an incredible place for kids to run free and explore all sorts of hands-on exhibits.
Eaton Canyon and Hahamongna Watershed Park — our go-to nature walks for a little outdoor adventure and fresh air.
