Altadena | $2.649 Million

A 1922 Mediterranean-style house with four bedrooms, four bathrooms and a one-bedroom, one-bathroom guesthouse, on a 0.6-acre lot

This house sits on a stretch of road known as Christmas Tree Lane, for the annual holiday lights display that has happened nearly every December since 1920. The street, which is lined with mature trees, is also on the National Register of Historic Places, in part because many of those trees played a role in the original festivities.

The property is 10 minutes by car from some of Pasadena’s most popular attractions: the Rose Bowl stadium, the Gamble House museum and the Norton Simon Museum, home to a sculpture garden and a collection of art from around the world. Downtown Los Angeles is about half an hour away; Pomona is a little more than an hour east.

Size: 4,024 square feet

Price per square foot: $658
