Orange Heights blends early-20th-century craftsmanship with an easy, everyday rhythm in north-central Pasadena. A recognized historic district, its streets showcase handsome Craftsman and Period Revival homes, wide parkways, and a neighborly porch culture. On the map, you’re close to architectural kin like Bungalow Heaven and the shopping, dining, and galleries of Old Pasadena, while trailheads and weekend hikes await up in Altadena.
Weekends often revolve around open-air time at Washington Park, with its lawns, courts, and playgrounds, or a night at the landmark Pasadena Playhouse for Tony-winning theater. The Norton Simon Museum’s world-class collection sits just a short drive away, perfect for a quiet afternoon of art appreciation at the Norton Simon Museum.
Families appreciate access to the Pasadena Unified School District, including popular magnet and dual-language programs, and an active network of community organizations that champion preservation and local youth programs. Commuters benefit from convenient corridors along Washington, Lake, and Allen, with the Metro A Line stations nearby for easy trips across the San Gabriel Valley and into downtown.
Whether you’re seeking a restored Craftsman with original woodwork or a bungalow ready for your personal touch, Orange Heights delivers character, walkability, and a strong sense of place. When you’re ready to move, Agent Pronto can connect buyers and sellers with top local agents who know the neighborhood inside and out.
