Quiet, scenic suburbia

Set along the border of Pasadena and Altadena, East Washington Village is a quiet, residential neighborhood bisected by the East Washington Boulevard retail corridor. The neighborhood offers easy access to shopping and dining, major interstates and the very hikeable San Gabriel Mountains, which loom over the local landscape. “It’s a comfortable neighborhood in a central spot,” says local Realtor Bill Podley of Compass, who has been selling homes in the area for over 50 years. “You’re close to the 210, but removed enough not to get freeway noise, and while there are some great shops and restaurants along Washington Boulevard, it’s not busy enough to impact the quieter, residential part of the community.”

Early 20th century homes

East Washington Village’s residential blocks are almost entirely made up of mid-size homes built in the early and middle 20th century, typically featuring between 1,000 and 2,000 square feet of interior space. Craftsman bungalows, Spanish Revival homes and midcentury ranch-style homes can all be found in the neighborhood. “It has a nice historical feel without actually being on the register of historic places, which makes it a bit easier to make renovations,” says Broker Shahe Seuylemezian of Re/Max Dream Properties, who has lived in the area for 15 years. Many properties have undergone significant renovations in recent decades, and homes that hit the market in East Washington typically feature updated kitchens and modern amenities. Homes in the neighborhood generally sell for between $1 million and $1.5 million.

Close to the Rose Parade
