YouTube Star Jordan Maron Has Traded One Pasadena Home for Another

Jordan Maron spent the tail end of last year unexpectedly shuffling his Pasadena property portfolio. Around three months after the successful YouTuber and Twitch streamer known as CaptainSparklez doled out $4.5 million for a contemporary spread with a showroom-style garage where he could better display his pricey collection of exotic cars, he wound up selling a hilltop midcentury-modern home about eight minutes away for a speck over $4 million, just $8,000 more than he paid less than a year ago.

Designed by noted modernist architect Lyman Ennis and completed in the 1950s, Maron’s recently sold post-and-beam house is perched above the Annandale Golf Club amid a gated 1.75-acre parcel in the North Arroyo neighborhood. Inside, the single-level abode features three bedrooms and two baths in a little more than 3,500 square feet boasting terrazzo floors and soaring wood-paneled ceilings throughout. Vast expanses of glass frame picturesque views of the surrounding San Gabriel Mountains.

An office sits off the entry foyer, while a fireside living room steps up to a formal dining area, and an adjacent kitchen comes with quartz countertops, dual islands, premium appliances, and a secondary kitchen tucked around the corner. Secluded in its own wing is a primary suite with a raised-hearth fireplace and a spa-inspired bath showcased by a Japanese soaking tub. A seating area leads outdoors, where the grounds are laced with native plantings and hold a curvaceous pool, along with a covered loggia ideal for alfresco lounging and entertaining.

As for Maron’s newly acquired residence in the city’s Linda Vista enclave, the two-story concrete-hued and green-trimmed structure was built in 2002 by Renato Corzo and has three bedrooms and an equal number of baths in roughly 3,500 square feet of updated living space. There’s a living area sporting a fireplace flanked by built-in shelving and floor-to-ceiling walls of glass, as well as a formal dining room and a gourmet kitchen adjoining a family room with a mod-style fireplace.

Other highlights include an office, a sizable primary suite containing a wet bar, and densely wooded grounds spanning nearly an acre and hosting a fire pit and a waterfall-enhanced infinity pool. Of course, there’s also the aforementioned detached garage for the avid car enthusiast.

Maron, 32, is a Los Angeles native who first gained online fame primarily via streaming his Minecraft gameplay on YouTube. Through the years, he’s garnered more than 4 billion lifetime views and roughly 14 million subscribers across his numerous channels on the platform.
