Both bathrooms have been tastefully renovated, while extensive system upgrades include updated electrical wiring and panel, recessed lighting, Uponor plumbing, central heating and air conditioning, and a tankless water heater.Original hardwood floors add warmth and character, while fresh interior and exterior paint create a crisp, move-in-ready feel. The private, fenced backyard is an inviting retreat, sprinkler system, and charming Dutch door that seamlessly connects indoor and outdoor living. Additional improvements include an attached two-car garage with an automatic door opener and keyless front entry for added convenience.Ideally located just moments from the Altadena Golf Course, Altadena Town & Country Club, scenic
