James Allen Walter, a California architect, designed this house for Geoffrey and Doreen Siodmak, a couple who moved in when South Pasadena was “just goats grazing and some avocado trees growing,” as Ms. Siodmak later described it to a historian.

The home is at the end of a cul-de-sac, about 10 miles northeast of downtown Los Angeles.
Size: 2,252 square feet
Price per square foot: $999
