Located in highly sought-after unincorporated Pasadena, this property offers versatility, comfort, and thoughtful design throughout. The main home includes 3 bedrooms and 3 bathrooms across 2,152 sq ft of living space, featuring curved ceilings and archways that connect the living room with fireplace to the family room and dining area. The dining room opens to a large kitchen with an extended island, a Viking Professional 6-burner range with griddle and hood, wine refrigerator, and a reverse osmosis hot water tap at the sink.
Two of the bedrooms provide direct access to the covered back patio, where mature wisteria vines create a comfortable outdoor setting for dining and relaxation. Off the kitchen, a finished bonus basement with its own mini-split HVAC offers an ideal space for an office, gym, studio, or additional living area.
Situated on a corner lot just under 11,000 sq ft, the property includes raised garden beds, a play area, RV parking, an electric driveway gate, and easy-to-maintain front yard landscaping. A self-filling dog water bowl is integrated into the yard, making outdoor living convenient for pets. Additional features include paid-off solar and a sauna. The garage offers two car parking along with a studio complete with a kitchenette and bathroom, providing flexibility for guests, extended family, rental, or workspace needs.
This is a well-designed property offering both indoor comfort and valuable outdoor amenities in a desirable Pasadena location.
