Welcome to 720 Santa Barbara Street, a rare and charming multifamily offering nestled in the heart of Pasadena's desirable Olive Heights neighborhood. This unique property is comprised of four distinct residential structures spanning nearly a century of architectural history—from the early 20th century through the post-war era—offering a blend of classic Southern California charm and stable income potential. MASSIVE DOUBLE LOT, ALMOST HALF AN ACRE.
• Two well-maintained 1950s fourplexes, each consisting of four 1-bedroom, 1-bath units with thoughtful layouts and vintage appeal.
• A standalone 2-bedroom, 2-bathroom single-family home, built in 1938, exudes character with its original details and spacious floor plan—perfect for an owner-user or premium rental.

Set on a spacious lot with mature trees, ample parking, and excellent street frontage, this income-generating property presents significant upside through cosmetic updates or strategic redevelopment. Many of the units retain their original charm, while offering tenants the comforts of quiet, garden-style living.
