An updated large, double sink bathroom is located adjacent to the bedrooms. Additional highlights include central heat and air, a charming work-from-home space off the dining area, a separate laundry room with washer and dryer included, EV charger at the driveway, a detached 2-car garage, and a spacious, private backyard ideal for play, entertaining, or relaxing under the trees. Just around the corner from the San Marino Mission District, it sits within the esteemed award-winning South Pasadena school district, and is convenient to all that makes South Pasadena one of the most desirable, accessible, and community-driven neighborhoods in Los Angeles.
