It’s been less than a year since NBC’s sitcom Brooklyn Nine-Nine came to a close, but it would appear Terry Crews is settling into this new chapter of his life. Now that he’s said goodbye to Terry Jeffords, the character he portrayed on the show for its eight season run, Crews has returned to the quaint California city of Pasadena, where the actor and his family lived in the early aughts, per Dirt. The City of Roses is known for its architectural history, and the pad Crews reportedly picked up for $5.6 million is no exception.
The four bedroom, four-and-a-half bathroom home was built in 1921 and designed by Reginald Davis Johnson, a notable Pasadena-based architect of the period, in a Spanish-inspired style. The home has been well-maintained and a dignified air remains on the 1.14 acre property, potent even from a distance thanks to the half circle driveway that sets the structure at a distance from the street. Exposed beams, arched doors, and terracotta tiling reflect the Spanish bent inside, while built-in bookshelves, ornate light fixtures, and wood burning fireplaces contribute to the overall stateliness of the home.

The outdoor space is just as impressive, beginning with a barbecue station and multiple separate al fresco dining areas on the terracotta-tiled patio. A large pool sits in the center of the flat, grassy expanse and a dividing wall separates this lounge area from the entrance to a two bedroom guesthouse. On the opposite side of the pool from the house, there’s another tiled patio area along with a gazebo and in the back corner, a private tennis court.
