Description
A quiet Highland Park hideaway with sweeping hillside outlooks, this reimagined residence brings together privacy, warmth, and a distinctly California ease. Located in the coveted Arroyo View Estates enclave near the South Pasadena border, the 3-bedroom, 3-bath home offers approximately 1,722 square feet of refined living space designed for both everyday comfort and effortless entertaining. Beyond a gated entry, a charming front courtyard introduces the home with a sense of calm and seclusion. Inside, the main living spaces feel bright, open, and inviting, with new wide-plank flooring, generous natural light, and a striking fireplace anchoring the room. Foldable glass doors extend the living area directly to the outdoors, creating an easy connection between the interiors and the private backyard, where layered landscaping and tranquil surroundings provide a beautiful backdrop for dining, lounging, or gathering with friends. The kitchen is clean-lined and thoughtfully appointed with quartz countertops, custom cabinetry, and designer finishes, opening naturally to the dining and living areas. A powder room, separate laundry room, and attached two-car garage add function without interrupting the home's relaxed flow. The bedroom wing is set apart for privacy, with all three bedrooms positioned along the south side of the home. At the rear, the primary suite enjoys a quiet retreat-like setting with dual closets and a sleek ensuite bath. Two additional bedrooms share a well-sized guest bathroom with a double vanity. Recent improvements bring a fresh, turn-key feel throughout, including new windows, new skylights, a new roof, upgraded flooring, refreshed landscaping, improved sewer line work, and elevated finishes that enhance the home's clean, modern character. Minutes from York Boulevard, Figueroa, Old Town Pasadena, Eagle Rock, the 110 Freeway, and Downtown Los Angeles, this hillside retreat offers the best of both worlds: a peaceful neighborhood setting with quick access to some of Northeast LA's most beloved dining, shopping, and cultural destinations.
