Charming SW Pasadena cottage that welcomes and invites you in on the first sight. Located in the San Rafael Hills on a slight knoll with views across Poppy Peak. One of just a few homes that existed in the Hills back in 1925. Light and airy with vistas from each room, the spacious living room has large picture windows, new hardwood floors, a beamed cathedral ceiling, and a handsome brick fireplace. The formal dining room is a few steps up; it is open to the living room and has hardwood floors and large picture windows. There is a great kitchen layout--plenty of counter space, a center island, and loads of cabinet storage. The two well-proportioned bedrooms have ample closets and new flooring, and one has sliding glass doors to the back patio. Two baths- one full bath with a double sink vanity, tub, and shower. The second bath is en suite with a shower. The central air & heat are newer, and the home's foundation is retrofitted. Sheltered by greenery is an inviting brick patio with an arbor in the backyard. The front garden up above the street is the perfect spot to enjoy the view. This property says ''Home'' from the moment you enter.
