About this House

THE WONDER YEARS AT 966 WORCESTER AVE. 966 Worcester Ave sits in Pasadena's Garfield Heights and offers 2,329sf across a fully updated main residence and private guest house, exactly the kind of space today's families are looking for. The main residence has 4 beds/3 baths and a ground-floor primary suite built for effortless, accessible living. The home was extensively updated in 2021: new roof, HVAC, windows, copper plumbing throughout, new interior paint, new toilets and bathroom tile, and new cabinets, counters, and backsplash. The open-concept living, dining, and kitchen area is anchored by a generous island and a suite of Thermador appliances alongside a Bosch refrigerator. Upstairs, 2 beds/1 bath give everyone room to breathe. The approx 500sf attached guest house brings its own living room, bedroom, bath, full kitchen, and laundry, completely self-contained, completely connected, tailor-made for multigenerational living, for those caring for an elder loved one who deserves proximity, independence, and dignity all at once. Outside, mature blood orange, orange, and lemon trees fill the yard. But ask the sellers what they will miss most about this house, and they will not mention a single room. They will tell you about the neighbors. The seller tried to put it into words. He kept reaching, kept searching, and finally just stopped. His face said everything his words couldn't. And that was more powerful than anything he could have said. You will feel it too. Just show up. Give it a moment. Let it land. The neighbors water your plants without being asked. They mow your lawn and laugh when you reach for your wallet. They know your name. They know your kids' names. They knock on your door and ask to borrow a cup of sugar and they mean it, and you hand it over without thinking twice because on Worcester Ave, this is just an ordinary Tuesday. This is not a Hallmark card. This is the real thing, still breathing, still knocking on your door. Then step outside in the morning and let the street do the rest. Walk the tree-lined streets of Garfield Heights while the Pasadena parrots call from the palms overhead and nostalgia sets in. It feels like the best Saturday morning of your childhood, when everything was slower and warmer. The city's noise dissolves a few blocks back and you stop trying to find it again. This is that place. And when you are ready for the world, the Rose Bowl, the Arroyo Seco, dinner at Dos Besos, or tickets to the Pasadena Playhouse are all minutes away. This is a home that holds everyone: the generation raising kids, the grandparent who deserves to be close but never crowded, the family member who needs their own door without ever truly being on their own. The neighbors will welcome every single one of them. That is the kind of street this is. The magic does not stop at your front door. It lives on the whole block. 966 Worcester Ave is not just square footage. It is a feeling that most people spend years chasing and most neighborhoods stopped offering long ago. It waited here for you.

  • John D.
    "We live on Glen Ave which is a quiet street with really good neighbors all around. It's much more attractive and well kept than South of Washington or immediately North of Woodbury, although North of Woodbury has been gentrifying extremely rapidly especially since Covid started. There are quite a few churches and a Buddhist temple. This area is very convenient with really awesome supermarkets like Super King and Vallarta that have much better produce options than Vons or Pavilions, which are also nearby. It's extremely quick to get to Trader Joe's as well. You can easily access outdoor and water activities at the Rose Bowl, the arroyo, or Descanso Gardens and there is a 24 hour fitness at Woodbury & Lincoln if you want to stay indoors. The kids from the high school walk home through the neighborhood but they generally behave themselves and it hasn't been a problem. Street parking is easy but guests parking overnight in Pasadena need a $5 permit that you get from a kiosk at the fire station on Fair Oaks."

I mean other than the “landlord” there (she’s long gone btw) , and there was the occasional parties that personally didn’t bug me but I know how it can be. But anyway Altadena is really cool and mostly quiet. And ever now and then you’ll see a couple of horseback riders which I love and I’d say that sorta unique."
