Nestled atop the prestigious Altos de Monterey, or Monterey Hills in South Pasadena, CA, every square inch of this gorgeous 3-bed 2-1/2 bath home has been renovated. Down to the studs! Brand new drywall and insulation, double pane windows, flooring, tankless water heater, two new HVAC units and ducting, a whole BRAND NEW kitchen with white oak cabinets and beautiful granite countertops with backsplash to match. All new plumbing and electrical throughout! Absolutely no dollar spared in this meticulously and well-thought out renovation! This home epitomizes luxury living with its high ceilings, breathtaking views, and indoor/outdoor spaces perfect for Southern California weather. An 18' sliding glass door that completely opens up to the balcony with views of the downtown LA skyline. There’s also plenty of cabinet storage in the thoughtfully designed laundry room/drop zone at the entrance of the breezeway. All three bedrooms are located on the lower level. The primary bedroom has a huge closet and access to another balcony (more fantastic views!). The ensuite boasts modern black fixtures, a custom-tiled step-in shower and an LED backlit mirror. The secondary bedroom also enjoys slider access to the back balcony. The two guest rooms share the jack-and-jill bathroom, which has a granite-topped floating double vanity and a tiled tub surround. Back on the top level, the immaculate garage has new epoxy floors, new garage door and opener, and you still have bonus parking spots out front. This quiet hillside neighborhood is zoned to top-ranked, award-winning South Pasadena School District, with parks and hiking trails close by. Just minutes from Old Town Pasadena shops, entertainment and dining. Convenience meets luxury with this home, offering the perfect combination of serenity, tranquility and accessibility. This is a rare opportunity to own a completely turnkey elegant home in the prime Monterey Hills of South Pasadena area.
