About this home

An incredible opportunity to own the most affordable property currently available in Pasadena—positioned in one of its most coveted neighborhoods, Upper Hastings Ranch, where million-dollar homes and the foothills of nature create a backdrop rarely offered at this price point. Tucked within the well-kept Hastings Towers community, this ground-level 1-bedroom, 1-bathroom residence stands confidently among its surroundings, offering a lifestyle rooted in value, convenience, and long-term upside. Cradled beneath the San Gabriel Mountains and surrounded by hiking trails, canyon air, and the character-rich neighborhoods of Sierra Madre and East Pasadena, this home delivers a rare balance of calm, connection, and community. Nearly 700sqft this refined space has a layout that flows with intention. Porcelain wood-look flooring runs wall-to-wall, clean, uninterrupted, and easy to maintain. Recessed lighting elevates the majority of the unit, all of it dimmable to match your mood from morning to midnight. The oversized bedroom is both peaceful and spacious, anchored by a Milgard double-pane window that seals out noise and softens the light. The bathroom feels considered and fresh, featuring a newer vanity, sleek tile tub enclosure, and finishes that strike the perfect balance between modern and timeless. In the kitchen, vintage charm meets everyday function with painted cabinetry, tile countertops, and a stainless steel fridge and dishwasher that bring in just the right amount of modern edge. A full suite of appliances supports whatever pace your life demands—quiet mornings, working lunches, or late dinners after a long day. Central heat and air ensure comfort year-round. Controlled access, subterranean parking with an assigned space and overhead storage, guest parking, and nearby community laundry check every practical box. Set just minutes from Eaton Canyon Golf Course, Angeles National Forest, Hastings Ranch shopping, and downtown Pasadena, this location offers both serene retreat and urban access. Restaurants, boutique retail, and freeway connections are close—but never in your way. Whether its your first home, or the home for the next chapter of your life, it’s the kind of place you don’t just move into—you arrive.
