Description

The Barcelona is located in the Playhouse District of Pasadena and convenient to a myriad of shopping and dining options! It was built in 1922 designed with charming Spanish Architectural details by Walter Follard. This charming unit is at the end so light streams in through its many windows. The open floorpan with high ceilings features the original windows, hardwood flooring, picture molding and custom cabinetry. The bright kitchen has been stylishly remodeled featuring Shaker style wood cabinetry with glass doors on the upper cabinets and quartz countertops. Most importantly you have your own laundry with a combination washer/dryer unit tucked under the countertop! A custom built-in extends into the dining area and cleverly disguises the refrigerator while also offering abundant storage. The bathroom has been remodeled as well using classic finishes that are elegant and dynamic. The HOA conveniently includes utilities as well as a 6'x4' storage space. The Barcelona is a unique building that has earned Historical status and as such, benefits from the Mills Act which offers a significant discount for your property taxes.
