This South Pasadena 3 Bedroom 2 Bath 'Turnkey Mid Century Home', is part of the much sought after Blue Ribbon Award winning school system. Tastefully updated and improved over the years, all with the necessary permits. Starting with the most recent updates, there is a brand new metal security gate for the driveway, all new paint and carpet for the total interior of the home, new HVAC system and handsome exterior metal windows as of 2020. The bathrooms were re-modeled one in 2019 and the other three months ago. The cement driveway, walkway with wheelchair access and the entire plumbing system was upgraded to copper in 2010. The roof on the house and garage was totally re-sheeted and replaced, the home and garage was re-stucco and new gutters were installed; all in 2005. Large bright eat-in kitchen with adjacent laundry room with pantry. 2 car garage with tons of storage and ADU possibilities. Generous grassy backyard and close to Arroyo Vista school, Trader Joe's and the Gold line.
