About This Home
As of June 2024Welcome to 1478 North Wilson Avenue, a charming bungalow nestled in the Historic Highlands District of Pasadena, CA. This delightful residence offers 2 bedrooms, 1.5 bathrooms, and a thoughtfully converted garage currently serving as an office, and could be a terrific art or yoga studio, kids playroom, man cave or whatever you can think of! Step inside to discover a beautifully renovated (2021) kitchen and bath, complete with modern amenities including a dishwasher, double refrigerator, gas oven, and stove. Clever utilization of the interior and exterior spaces will surprise and please you! As one enters from the wide porch, there is a seamless flow into an inviting living area with hardwood floors and built-ins, creating a warm and welcoming ambiance, through the dining room or den, to the kitchen and French doors leading to the rear yard. Outside, multiple private patio spaces provide the perfect setting for al fresco dining and relaxation, while the spacious front and back yards offer ample room for outdoor activities. The option to build out and add a full bath presents an exciting opportunity for customization, catering to your specific needs. The seller has lovingly improved the residence with many upgrades: copper plumbing, HVAC system, newer roofs and solar panels, tankless water heater, rain gutters, French doors and so much more. With a total lot size of 4015 square feet, this private oasis offers a serene escape from the hustle and bustle, while still being conveniently located near all that Pasadena has to offer. Don't miss the chance to make this lovely home yours!
