Worthy of its own spread in a mid-century design magazine, this beautifully renovated French Moderne condo offers gorgeous aesthetics, turn-key luxury, and a serene ambiance. Nestled just a half mile from Old Town, you'll enjoy easy access to Pasadena's most vibrant shopping and dining. Imagine Sunday morning strolls to Tartine for the city's best croissant or a cool evening trip home after dinner with friends at Michelin-lauded Union. Upon entering this single-level ground floor unit, you're greeted by a bright, extensively remodeled kitchen featuring hand-crafted tile. Start your gatherings here with aperitifs at the expansive island. Sleek lines and elegant finishes continue into the living room, where a striking fireplace anchors the space beneath soaring 10-foot ceilings. With ample space for a baby grand, you can charm your guests with an intimate concerto before dinner. Joyful meals unfold in the nearby dining room, which opens to the lush, private wraparound patio. Shaded and refreshingly cool, this enchanting garden space invites you to enjoy the outdoors any time of day. When you're ready to unwind, the spacious primary suite offers a renovated spa bath that feels straight out of a luxurious Four Seasons penthouse suite. The versatile secondary bedroom with a rolling ladder bookshelf can easily double as a home office. Parisian-inspired luxury, nestled within a beautifully landscaped complex, this condo offers everything you could desire in a city retreat.
