LOCALLA

Not Your Average Cookie Cutter Townhouse -- Wake up in your sun-filled primary suite, luxurious and unhurried. Head downstairs to start the morning your way -- coffee and the paper at the kitchen breakfast bar, or out on the expansive private patio with the gentle sound of your own fountain and a soft Pasadena breeze. Roll out a mat for yoga among the greenery. Tend to the raised bed garden. The day is yours. Stroll a few blocks to the South Lake shopping district for brunch, then swing by Erehwon and Trader Joe's to gather provisions for an evening barbecue with friends (supplemented, of course, with herbs and vegetables from your own garden). As the sun sets, guests gather on the patio for dinner under the stars. After everyone has drifted home, retreat inside and unwind by the fire -- a relaxing finish to a relaxing day. Later in the week, settle into one of the chairs by the fountain with a good book or a long-overdue catch-up with a friend -- the kind of quiet, restorative outdoor moment that's nearly impossible to find these days. This is a townhome that lives like a single-family residence in the heart of one of Pasadena's most walkable, sought-after pockets. Close to everything that makes this city special, yet private, quiet, and entirely your own. The Details: Located in the back corner of the property, far away from any traffic noise from Del Mar Blvd, this townhome is incredibly quiet. At 1,674 square feet, this townhouse feels genuinely spacious -- not the compressed footprint of a typical condo. The main level is a versatile, stylish space made for entertaining: soaring ceilings, abundant natural light, a generous and well-appointed kitchen with breakfast bar, a fireplace for cooler evenings, and a built-in bar with wine fridge and wine storage. A large, beautifully finished guest bathroom completes the main floor. Upstairs, both bedrooms are oversized and en-suite. The primary is exceptional -- a true retreat with a thoughtfully designed walk-in closet and an expansive bathroom with double sink and travertine shower. In-unit laundry is conveniently located near the bedrooms. Downstairs, a large bonus level offers flexibility you rarely find in attached housing -- ideal as a home office, gym, media lounge, creative studio, or private guest quarters. A private, attached, 2-car direct-access garage including a 240V EV charger provides convenience, security, and storage. Over 600sq' of private outdoor space and greenery brings the indoor-outdoor lifestyle that defines the best of Southern California living -- outdoor dining, gardening, a tranquil fountain, and room to truly breathe. Perfectly located at the junction of Madison Heights and the Playhouse District. Blocks to Whole Foods and restaurants on Arroyo Parkway, an easy stroll to the shops and restaurants of South Lake. Minutes to Old Town and Caltech. With easy access to the best of Pasadena and effortless indoor-outdoor living, this one is genuinely different.
