Property Description

This is a rare find: a top-floor, light-filled corner sanctuary right in the cultural heartbeat of the Playhouse District, tucked away with only one shared wall and no neighbors above you. Offering approximately 851 square feet of space, the home boasts striking architectural volume from high ceilings and abundant natural light that instantly draws you in, complete with the added bonus of a versatile open loft upstairs. The main level features an open layout with a beautifully updated kitchen and bathroom, alongside a private balcony for unwinding. Upstairs, the loft features a real closet--a rare find for open-concept spaces--making it an ideal home office, creative studio, den, guest retreat, or second bedroom. Beyond the character and warmth of the home, it comes equipped with all the everyday conveniences: in-unit laundry, a dedicated parking space in a secure gated garage, a low monthlyHOA fee and an elevator in the building, and central air and heat. Step right outside your door to explore South Lake Avenue, local theaters, dining, and shops. It's the ultimate blend of character, privacy, flexibility, and effortless Pasadena living
