About This Home

Welcome to Casa Serena, where comfort, style, and effortless Pasadena living come together. This beautifully updated residence welcomes you with a bright, open living space featuring recessed lighting and plush new carpeting. A large sliding glass door leads to an expansive private balcony, perfect for morning coffee or unwinding at sunset enhanced by classic wood-louvered shutters that provide both charm and privacy. The living area flows seamlessly into the dining space, where a stylish shiplap accent wall creates a warm focal point. Just beyond, the remodeled kitchen blends clean design with everyday functionality, offering quartz countertops, shaker-style cabinetry, recessed lighting, and a discreet furniture-front dishwasher for a streamlined look. An electric cooktop, range hood, built-in oven, and a spacious walk-in pantry with custom shelving complete the space. Near the entry, a thoughtfully designed powder room features penny tile flooring, an LED-lit mirror, and additional storage. A hallway storage area with built-in drawers, shelving, and counter space adds practicality without sacrificing style. The expansive bedroom suite serves as a private retreat, complete with new carpeting, recessed lighting, and a custom closet with built-in organizers. The updated ensuite bathroom offers a spa-like feel with basket-weave tile flooring, a tub and shower combination with custom glass enclosure, a rain showerhead, and an oversized vanity with stone countertop. Residents of Casa Serena enjoy access to a gated pool and spa, a serene courtyard, and a well-maintained community laundry room with private storage lockers. Ideally located near Pasadena's South Lake District, Old Town, and California Institute of Technology, this secure building offers convenient access to dining, shopping, and all that greater Los Angeles has to offer. Turnkey and thoughtfully updated, this home delivers a refined yet comfortable Pasadena lifestyle.
