275 E California Blvd 3,008 SF Office Building Pasadena, CA 91106 $2,300,000 ($764.63/SF)

The CREM Group is pleased to present for sale 275 East California Boulevard, a freestanding craftsman-style office building located in prime Pasadena. The property consists of approximately 3,008 square feet of space on an 8,886 square foot lot and includes 11 on-site parking spaces. The current flexibility makes it well suited for a business seeking to transition from renting to owning in a central location that consistently attracts professional users.
The property’s office use was formally established through a Conditional Use Permit in 2003 and remains permissible under the City’s Office Conversion overlay, giving an owner-user a clear path to occupancy. Upon acquiring the property, the owner substantially improved the building with updated flooring, electrical upgrades, upgraded lighting, bathroom and kitchen additions, upgraded HVAC, and a new roof. These enhancements make the space functional on day one while retaining the character that defines early Pasadena architecture.
The lot size is notably generous, providing more privacy, better parking, and long-term flexibility. The underlying RM-32 zoning introduces future residential possibilities, and the OC overlay preserves its office entitlement. The building is also designated a Structure of Merit by the City of Pasadena, reflecting its historic significance. Buyers should conduct their own investigation of any development or exterior modification plans.
