Description

Tucked along Pasadena's coveted Millionaires Row, 1235 South Orange Grove #3 is a spacious, tastefully modernized retreat set inside one of the city's most iconic and architecturally significant mid-century modern communities: Orange View Terrace, designed in 1959 by Louis Gould AIA. Past manicured hedges, colorful flowers, and towers of beautifully sculpted breeze blocks, enter Unit #3 and find yourself in an open living/dining space accented by a perfectly MCM gas conversation fireplace and massive floor-to-ceiling windows that bathe the home in gentle morning sunlight. A rare offering in the complex, the unit's three balconies each look out onto lush greenery, allowing for seamless indoor-outdoor living with a sense of peace and privacy. The kitchen has been thoughtfully renovated and features stainless steel appliances, porcelain farmhouse sink, soft-close cabinetry, and a stylish encaustic tile backsplash that evokes the building's iconic mid-century modern design. In the primary bedroom, find yet another balcony as well as dual closets--including a walk-in with built-in shelving and storage--and an ensuite bathroom with updated vanity, fiberglass shower, and tub. The spacious second bedroom features ample storage as well as access to the second bathroom and in-unit laundry. Outside, wind your way through the community's beautifully landscaped grounds surrounded by some of the most iconic midcentury architecture that Pasadena has to offer. Enjoy a drink with friends and neighbors in one of the several garden courtyards, then meet up in the complex's clubhouse for games and a swim in the massive sparkling pool. With two dedicated parking spots, elevator access, community exercise room, and close proximity to world-class shopping and dining in Old Town and South Pas, 1235 S Orange Grove #3 is an incredible value and a chance to own a comfortable, architecturally significant condo home in one of the most sought-after communities in the city.
