About This Home

Perched among the treetops in a charming four-unit complex, this upstairs condo feels like your own private treehouse retreat. The star of the show? Breathtaking mountain vistas are visible from the living room, dining area, and expansive private balcony. Whether you're relaxing indoors or enjoying the fresh air outside, the views provide a daily dose of serenity and inspiration. Freshly painted and featuring new carpeting throughout, this bright and inviting two-bedroom, one-bath home offers a spacious living room that opens directly onto the balcony—perfect for morning coffee or evening wine with a stunning backdrop of the San Gabriel Mountains. The generously sized kitchen has granite countertops, a dishwasher, loads of cabinet space and flows into a dedicated dining area, creating an ideal layout. Additional highlights include dual closet space in the primary bedroom, a recently replaced roof (just one month ago), one assigned carport with built-in storage, a second dedicated parking space, a shared laundry area, low HOA dues, and a community yard. Located just minutes from downtown Sierra Madre, Kersting Court offers a unique blend of fine dining, designer boutiques, art galleries, and Starbucks, all within a short distance. This rare gem provides comfort, charm, and postcard-worthy views in one of the area’s most beloved neighborhoods.
