Property Description
Nestled in the heart of Pasadena's prestigious Linda Vista neighborhood, this exceptional residence offers the perfect balance of tranquility and city convenience. Situated on picturesque Charles Street, a peaceful cul-de-sac, the property enjoys close proximity to major freeways while maintaining a serene and private atmospheric ideal retreat for family living. The main residence features 2,139 sq. ft., complemented by a beautifully remodeled 420 sq. ft. guest house (measured by PlanLab LA), providing a total of 2,559 sq. ft. of functional living space. The gourmet kitchen serves as the home's centerpiece, showcasing custom luxury cabinetry, top-of-the-line Miele appliances, and an expansive dining area that flows seamlessly to the outdoor patio and private backyard perfect for entertaining or quiet relaxation. Both bedrooms and all interior doors have been upgraded, while bathrooms have been tastefully remodeled. A laundry closet with a newer Samsung side-by-side washer and dryer adds everyday convenience. The detached guest house (casita), attached to the garage, offers versatile use as a bedroom, office, studio, or private retreat, complete with a remodeled bath with shower, updated cooling system, and deck for indoor-outdoor living. The landscaped grounds are equally captivating, highlighted by seasonal blooms and an array of fruit trees including lemon, kumquat, yuzu tree, lime, caviar lime, persimmon, pomegranate, quince, olive, peach, and grapefruit. A comparable home on the same cul-de-sac recently sold for $2.6M, yet this property delivers exceptional value with a fully renovated main residence and guest house, enhanced by high-end finishes and premium upgrades. According to the seller, approximately $250,000 has been invested in thoughtful renovations, including new HVAC systems, water heaters, premium wood flooring, recessed lighting, and fresh interior paint. Please see the Property Improvements section under Doc's for a detailed list. The open living and dining areas are bathed in natural light from expansive windows that frame lush treetop views. A gated driveway, remote-controlled garage, and ample parking further enhance convenience and security. Beyond the property, residents enjoy close proximity to Pasadena's most celebrated landmarks the Rose Bowl, Norton Simon Museum, ArtCenter College of Design, Brookside Golf Club, Annandale Golf Club and the Arroyo Seco Trails. This Linda Vista gem is more than a home it is a lifestyle of comfort, elegance, and timeless Pasadena charm.
