Want peace, quiet and to escape the rat race? Make your way to this elegant one story garden condo enveloped in trees with the sound of a trickling creek outside. But wait, what's that? It's the sound of your cat's paws zooming up the kitty ramps high above your head! This home will thoroughly satisfy you and your cat, and your pups will love walking down the winding streets of this lush green community of Monterey Hills with preserved open space and a neighborhood park. From the open-to-nature hallway, enter your home to a rather mind blowing scene of total greenery off your private balcony with hummingbirds flitting about for some nectar. The living room is huge, with floor to ceiling walls of glass opening to the balcony. Custom floor to ceiling shutters control light and privacy. Off one side of the living room is the convertible den/optional second bedroom for your roommate, family member or for use as an office. The modern kitchen has beautiful oak cabinetry and a pantry, marble flooring, and the refrigerator, range/oven, microwave and dishwasher are included. There's a dining area, breakfast area and breakfast bar off the kitchen. The primary bedroom on the other side of the living room is a lavish space with full bath, large vanity, dressing area, walk-in closet, built-in shelving and more creature comforts. The home has only one common wall so it's a quiet space, and the laundry room is so conveniently next door. Outside, in addition to the creek and pathways through the gorgeous trees within the complex, there's a pool, sundeck, spa, clubhouse and sauna. There are two side by side parking spaces. When it's time for you to leave all the comforts of home to play and impress your friends, the neighboring communities of Highland Park, Pasadena, South Pasadena and Downtown L.A. beckon with what seems like zillions of cool restaurants, fashionable shops and cutting edge art and music to explore. There really is a special feel here, unlike a condo and more like a retreat. Come feel it for yourself!
