About this home

Welcome to luxury living in central Pasadena, located half a block east of Lake Ave, between Del Mar and California, on the second floor with South and West-facing views. This corner residence offers a generous amount of natural light in every room. This unit has a gracious, large floor plan with an open living room/dining area with direct access to both the south and west-facing balconies. There is also a gas-fired fireplace in the living room. The kitchen has an open pass-through countertop to the dining area. The kitchen has all high-end stainless-steel appliances, including a wine refrigerator. The master suite has a good-sized bedroom with direct access to the very large south-facing balcony. The master bathroom is very large with a long counter-top with two sinks, a separate bathtub, and a large glass-enclosed shower. The master suite walk-in closet is big enough to dance in, and that means two people. The 2nd bedroom suite is large enough to fit any size bed. It also has approximately 15 feet of custom-built cabinet space/countertop space with two levels of shelving above. There is also a walk-in closet in this suite. The guest 1/2 bathroom is off the hallway and is not small at all (I have used it with my wheelchair myself). This unit and the entire complex are very handicap-friendly. There are two designated side-by-side parking spaces in the subterranean garage with easy handicap access to the elevator. There is also a designated walk-in storage locker in the garage. Common area amenities include a swimming pool and jacuzzi, a very well-equipped workout room, and meeting room and lounge.

Cons

MLS Listing Discrepancy: Bedroom count discrepancy between mls listing and other public or private record. mls listing bedroom count = 2, other record bedroom count = 3.
High Association Fees: The monthly association fee of $1,648 is substantial and represents a significant ongoing cost that could impact affordability and long-term investment for potential buyers.
Limited Private Outdoor Space: While the unit features two balconies, it lacks a private yard or garden, which may be a drawback for buyers seeking more extensive outdoor living areas or pet-friendly spaces.
Condominium Restrictions: As a condominium, residents are subject to Homeowners Association (HOA) rules and regulations, which can sometimes impose restrictions on personal modifications or lifestyle choices, and the high fees suggest a complex with significant operational costs.
