2023 paid-off solar panels and a prime South Pasadena location make this corner unit, set above street level with scenic views of mature trees, the surrounding hillside, and distant city lights, an exceptional find. Enjoy top-rated schools, Mission Streets cafs and shops, and quick Metro access to Old Pasadenas restaurants, while the weekly South Pasadena Farmers Market, nearby Orange Grove Park, and Arroyo Seco trails and bike paths set the stage for an active outdoor lifestyle. The double doors open to a freshly painted, light-filled interior, offering 1, 504 sq ft of living space with 3 beds and 2.5 baths, plus direct access to an oversized 2-car garage with a walk-in storage closet, built-in cabinetry, EV charger, and laundry area. The entryway feels bright and welcoming with a soaring ceiling and hardwood floors that extend into the main living areas, where the living room centers around a striking black marble fireplace and windows framing views of mature trees, flowing into the adjacent formal dining room, spacious enough for large gatherings and perfect for entertaining. The kitchen is impressively large, featuring dark wood cabinets contrasted by crisp white quartz countertops and backsplash, complemented by stainless steel appliances. Its thoughtful layout offers abundant counter space, storage, and a large window over the sink that fills the room with natural light. The half bath completes the main level with a sleek dark vanity, granite countertop, and wide framed mirror reflecting the pendant lighting overhead. Upstairs, the primary suite is a peaceful and private retreat with vaulted ceilings, a large window showcasing hillside and treetop views, a private balcony, walk-in closet, and an en-suite bath with dual sinks, dark cabinetry, and a glass-enclosed tub and shower. Two additional bedrooms with bright windows and large closets share an updated full bath with modern finishes. Updated in 2023 with a new HVAC system with heat pump, this townhouse also features double-paned windows, recessed lighting, and crown molding. It is conveniently located near the A Line for direct rail access to Old Pasadena and DTLA with quick connections to the 110 FWY for an easy commute. $300 HOA dues include water and trash. Set within a well-maintained 14-unit community where homes rarely come to market, this is a great opportunity to own a beautifully upgraded townhouse with quality upgrades and modern amenities - offered at an exceptional value!
