Description
Welcome to your newly transformed haven, a fully remodeled two-story retreat in the heart of Pasadena, where modern sophistication meets the warm, walkable rhythm of Southern California living. Set on one of Madison Heights' most beloved tree-lined streets inside a beautifully maintained, clean complex, this home shows its pride of ownership before you ever reach the front door. Step inside and you're not just entering a condo, you're stepping into the effortless life you've always pictured. A fully remodeled kitchen with fresh custom cabinetry, updated countertops, and premium quality fixtures. Brand-new luxury vinyl plank flooring flows through the entire home, elegant underfoot and warm to the eye. A convenient powder room serves the main level, and your own in-unit laundry means no shared machines, no waiting, no hallway trips, just everyday ease. Upstairs, there is no compromise bedroom. Both bedrooms are true suites, each with its own private, fully updated en suite bath finished with serene, spa-like details. At 1,260 square feet across two levels, this home lives far larger than the number suggests. Nestled close to Caltech and minutes from Pasadena City College, you're just blocks from South Lake Avenue's coffee shops and standout dining, with Old Pasadena and the Huntington Gardens close at hand. Quick access to the 210 and 110 freeways makes commuting effortless, though the honest truth of living here is how rarely you'll need to leave. This is more than a condo, it's a fully remodeled home, two private suites, and a walkable Pasadena address people wait years for. Welcome home.
