1865 Hanscom Dr, South Pasadena, CA 91030

This hillside development site consists of two contiguous parcels positioned high above the surrounding landscape. The property is currently improved with an approximately 400-square-foot structure that is considered a tear-down, providing a blank slate for a new custom build or architectural residence. A concrete driveway already descends to a parking area, and utilities are available in the street, which can help simplify planning for future development.

Located along Hanscom Drive in South Pasadena, the site benefits from an elevated setting and sweeping westward views across rolling canyons, city lights, and distant skyline vistas. The area is characterized by a growing collection of contemporary residences, with the property’s topography supporting a range of privacy-focused hillside designs. Access is primarily vehicle-oriented, consistent with the car-dependent walk and transit characteristics described for the area.

For developers, builders, architects, or end users, the combination of two parcels, existing driveway access, and street-available utilities can make this a practical option to plan and construct a new residence that takes advantage of the panoramic hillside outlook. The property may also appeal to buyers looking to create a signature home at a secluded high-elevation site. As noted, buyers should independently verify all development possibilities, zoning regulations, lot dimensions, utility availability, and future use with the appropriate governmental agencies.
