Property is move-in ready.
Although built in 1973, the property has undergone a significant interior refresh likely within the 5-15 year range. It features updated light wood flooring, modern paint, and refreshed bathrooms with contemporary vanities and subway tile. The kitchen is well-maintained and functional but remains dated with tile countertops and older white appliances, making the home move-in ready but not mint condition.
Middle School: South Pasadena Middle School (9/10). High School: South Pasadena Senior High School (9/10).
The property features expansive decking, French doors, and a private primary balcony that seamlessly integrate the interior with lush, 'treehouse-like' verdant views.
Ideally situated near the hiking trails of Debs Park and the Audubon Center, while offering quick access to the trendy shops and eateries along Figueroa.
While some nearby schools are highly rated, several of the immediate local elementary schools have low performance scores, which may be a concern for families.
Built in 1973 and featuring 'vintage' elements like the hot tub, the home may require additional capital investment to update finishes and systems to modern standards.
This bright, airy, 3 bed 2.5 bath Montecito Heights charmer exudes serious treehouse vibes with verdant views from every room. Multi-paned windows in dining and living room and French doors opening onto an expansive deck surrounded by Deodar pine and Eucalyptus gives the living area a spacious, open feel. The deck functions as an extension of the living area with plenty of room for dining and lounging, plus a vintage hot tub with newer heater. The Kitchen offers ample counters for culinary creativity, a laundry area, and pedestrian door to back yard and garage. Upstairs, the natural light filled Primary suite includes French doors which open onto a lovely balcony perfect for sipping morning coffee amid branches blowing in the breeze and melodic birdsong. The upstairs level is completed by two additional good-sized bedrooms, and a full bath. Near the walking entrance to Debs Park, home of the Audubon Center, while also just a quick drive down to all the hip shops and eateries on Figueroa, this home is perfectly positioned to offer the best of both worlds.
