Description
Perched on a hilltop in serene privacy, this expertly updated 1962 Modern delivers seamless indoor-outdoor living and spectacular views in vibrant Highland Park. Gorgeous vistas set the tone in the light-filled great room anchored by a fireplace; glass sliders open to the vast deck spanning the full width of the home. The stylish kitchen is beautifully appointed with a Heath tile backsplash and sleek white cabinetry; impressive finishes include oak plank floors and custom walnut detailing. Three lower-level bedrooms include an ensuite primary with a spa-like bath finished in Carrara marble, and outdoor access to a hot tub for unwinding with scenic views. Spiral stairs connect the generous upper and lower decks; arroyo rock lines the way to the terraced garden of native plantings, shaded by oak and purple acacia. Amenities include a 2-car carport with storage room, a Tesla EV charger, a laundry/storage area, and many system upgrades. Ideally situated between Highland Park and Pasadena, you're close to Arroyo Seco Park, Hermon's, Modu Cafe, Bub & Grandma's Pizza, Highly Likely, and more.
