About this home

Elevated above the City in tranquil Monterey Hills, this fully renovated 2-bedroom, 2-bath residence blends designer sophistication with everyday magic, where every room frames an extraordinary, ever-changing panorama. And yes, there's a private balcony perfectly positioned for morning coffee, golden-hour martinis, and quiet stargazing nights. Completely renovated, the home unfolds as a curated world of thoughtful splendor. Engineered Blue Ridge Oak floors sweep throughout, illuminated by recessed LED lighting and enhanced by Kasa smart switches for an intuitive, indulgent living experience. The kitchen is a true showpiece: custom cabinetry, quartz countertops, LED undercabinet lighting, a tile backsplash, soft-close everything, Samsung smart appliances, and a charming breakfast area. Whether you're cooking, sipping, or hosting, the sweeping views follow. The primary suite lives like a boutique retreat, framed by its own sweeping vista. The ensuite bath elevates the experience with terrazzo floors, a custom glass shower wrapped in exquisite tilework, Delta fixtures, a floating dual-sink vanity, and an Eco Toilet. A split floor plan provides ideal separation, placing the guest bedroom on the opposite side complete with a built-in desk nook that overlooks the same cinematic horizon. The guest bath continues the elevated aesthetic with terrazzo, custom tile, a deep soaking tub, and designer details throughout. Numerous closets have been professionally outfitted, offering practical and plentiful storage. The unit also includes two parking spaces and a personal 120V EV charger, with the community offering secured access, a pool, and a spa. Beyond the front door, the lifestyle is equally compelling. Bordering vibrant Highland Park and charming South Pasadena, you'll never come up short of an eclectic mix of dining, culture, nightlife, and boutique shopping - everything from York Boulevard's cafes and galleries to Figueroa's beloved restaurants, vintage stores, music venues, and community events. You're also moments from the Metro Gold Line, the Arroyo Seco, parks, hiking trails, and the energy of some of LA's most adored neighborhoods. This is more than a beautifully renovated home; it's a modern, serene hilltop escape with the very best of Los Angeles at your fingertips. A perfect balance of tranquility, luxury, and convenience.
