About This Home

As of April 2025

Step into this stunning Mid Century Modern condo, where sophistication meets everyday convenience. This expansive 2-bedroom, 2-bathroom light filled top-floor end unit has high ceilings, a great floorplan, beautiful treetop views and an abundance of oversized windows and balcony spaces. A welcoming entry leads to the spacious and bright living room with large sliding glass doors that open to a large balcony. The lovely views make it an ideal space to enjoy your morning coffee. The impressive kitchen boasts sleek cabinetry with ample storage, stainless steel appliances and French doors opening to the spacious dining room which provides views from multiple sets of windows. Down the hall, the impressive primary suite with a good-sized closet is magnificent. It blends cool mid-century character with amazing views from a second balcony. Down the hall, there is a second bedroom as well as a full bathroom. A combination washer/dryer inside the unit creates ease for everyday living and there is also a community laundry if there is a need. There is lush greenery surrounding the complex, a sparkling pool and spa and a community barbeque area. The HOA dues cover lots of extras, including earthquake insurance, hot water and electricity usage for the cooling system within the unit (so the homeowner's electricity bills are quite reasonable!). One parking space is included with the unit and there are also multiple owner overflow parking spaces. Located in a fabulous pocket of Pasadena, the condo is close to Caltech, supermarkets such as Erewhon and Trader Joe's, plus many additional restaurant and shopping options. Welcome home!
