Move-in ready single-level condo located across the street from Cal Tech. This recently renovated unit was built in 1985 by noted local engineer/builder John Hedrick of JH Hedrick Company, who built mid-century style apartments, condominiums, and office buildings in California from San Diego to Santa Barbara. This secure and gated community offers well-maintained grounds with abundant mature trees, lush planters, a pool and spa, all focused around a main courtyard and pathway. Situated just north of a primarily residential neighborhood the location offers close proximity to California Institute of Technology, Pasadena City College, Polytechnic School, The Huntington Library, Art Museum, and Botanical Gardens, Grant Park, and some of Pasadena's most attractive neighborhoods such as Rose Villa/Oakdale. This 2-bedroom and 2-bathroom unit is turnkey and comes with a private patio (approx. 200 SF) and two parking spaces in the secure resident garage, as well as in-unit laundry. Both bedrooms have walk-in closets and direct access to the private patio. The property blends functional design elements such as 9-foot ceilings, calming natural light, ample room sizes, luxury vinyl plank floors, and plentiful storage while offering a clean and contemporary aesthetic. The indoor-outdoor flow of this 1,104 SF (per LA County Assessor) one-level property make it feel larger than the SF number suggests. Light and bright, this unit recently underwent substantial cosmetic upgrades, including new interior paint, new recessed lighting, new light fixtures, and new plumbing fixtures. Other aspects of this property that will satisfy selective buyers include the beautiful wood-burning fireplace, serene private patio, three sliding glass doors, new quartz kitchen countertops, under-mount sink, and a recently installed new central HVAC system. This unit also comes with a stainless-steel refrigerator, dishwasher, and stove, as well as a stackable clothes washer and dryer. The Villa Corona HOA is an ideal community for its residents and offers a relaxing suburban vibe close to the hustle and bustle of Lake Avenue and Colorado Boulevard. The monthly HOA covers exterior maintenance, roof, water, trash, sewer, insurance for the HOA, secure pedestrian and garage gates, professional HOA management, and beautifully landscaped grounds. Whether you are looking for a wonderful starter home, a modern pied-a-terre, or a comfortable space during retirement, this unit can work for all buyers.
