Do you have $52 Million to spare?

Last month, we looked at a $9.3 million luxury estate in San Marino. Today, I wanted to share with you an amazing Pasadena estate that has been on the market for almost two years – actually 645 days.

Why is it taking so long to sell?

Well… it could be the fact that the price tag on this Pasadena beauty is $52,000,000. This begs a question, what can you get for $52,000,000?

Let’s see:
