Situated only several blocks north of Old Town Pasadena, 2 blocks west of Los Robles Ave, and just within walking distance of many dining, shopping, and other attractions in Pasadena. It is situated on a quiet residential street surrounded by single family houses. This property is being sold together with 5 adjacent buildings to its north and south that are own by same seller – can be purchased together or individually (514 N Madison, 526 N Madison, 536 N Madison, 562 N Madison, and 570 N Madison).
