The Mrs. J.H. Hood House is locally significant under Criterion C. Under this criterion, the house is a notable example of the Folk Victorian style of architecture. The house exhibits elements of the Folk Victorian subtype of the single-family residence property type including rectangular plan, symmetrical facades, double-hung windows, a porch with turned posts and spindlework, wooden drop siding with fish-scale shingles in the gable ends, narrowly proportioned double-hung windows and ornamentation by cut-out patterns and medallions. The house has a high level of architectural integrity through its design, setting, materials, workmanship and feeling. Although not in the original location, it was moved shortly after its construction and retains original site features from this period. The elements and proportions of the house that represent its design are intact as are the materials used in its original construction. The house exhibits evidence of techniques employed in residential construction in the late 19th century in Pasadena and clearly expresses the historic sense of this time period.
