About This Home
As of May 2025Tucked into a peaceful pocket near the foothills of Northeast Pasadena, this beautifully updated four-bedroom, three-bathroom residence pairs timeless architecture with the ease and comfort of modern California living. The surrounding neighborhood, known for its mountain views, tree-lined streets, and enduring sense of community, offers a rare blend of quiet charm and urban convenience.Living here means being moments from the Saturday Pasadena Farmers Market, Victory Park, top-rated schools, the Metro A Line, hiking trails, and the shops and cafes of East Washington Village and Hastings Ranch--Pasadena staples that anchor daily life with rhythm, culture, and connection.From the street, the home's lines and thoughtful proportions are instantly welcoming. Inside, natural light pours through a large bay window in the living room, framing views of the San Gabriel Mountains and creating a tranquil backdrop for everyday living. Throughout the home, engineered hardwood floors, LED recessed lighting, and custom details reflect quality and care at every turn.The kitchen is the heart of the home--both functional and open--with an oversized island, abundant cabinetry, and space to gather. Flowing into the dining area and family room beyond, the layout is made for entertaining and connection, with access to the backyard just steps away.The flexible floor plan includes two en-suite bedrooms, including a quiet and spacious primary retreat, and two additional full-sized bedrooms perfect for guests, work-from-home space, or creative use. A dedicated laundry room, ample storage, and thoughtful upgrades--including a new HVAC system, updated insulation and ductwork, copper plumbing, and an EV charger--support long-term ease and energy efficiency.Outside, the private backyard offers multiple zones to relax or entertain: a sparkling pool, mature landscaping, and space to imagine outdoor dinners, morning coffee, or summer afternoons. The detached garage, already assigned a separate address, presents built-in ADU potential for those seeking future flexibility.This is a home that feels as good as it functions--designed for daily beauty, comfort, and growth.
