    Set on a large 10K+ sqft lot, this charming home in the heart of Pasadena has modern updates and timeless style. Gleaming hardwood floors flow throughout the home as you step inside the warm and inviting entry. The living room steals the show with its cozy fireplace and bay window, creating the perfect spot to relax with a good book or gather with loved ones. Just beyond, the dining room offers a comfortable setting for meals. The beautifully updated kitchen, with counter top seating, adds a touch of modern luxury and convenience.

There are two additional bedrooms, an updated shared hallway bathroom, and plenty of storage inside. A dedicated laundry room brings convenience to your daily routine and has direct access to the patio and backyard. Outdoors, you'll find an expansive, lush grassy yard - perfect for weekend barbecues, a game of catch, or simply soaking up the California sunshine. The covered patio provides a shady retreat for al fresco dining or your morning coffee. There is a separate side yard featuring a fire pit, great for summer nights. A detached 2 car garage with workshop completes the property. This home's location is hard to beat.
