This contemporary cottage is located in the heart of Sierra Madre Canyon benefiting from the peaceful and serene natural setting that is surprisingly only minutes from Pasadena and LA. The property was upgraded with new paint, garage doors, landscaping, and a new range. Hardwood floors were added in 2014. The living room enjoys an open floor-plan, fireplace and dining area. The kitchen is well equipped and opens to the living room at the new breakfast bar. The 1st floor boasts a full bathroom with a claw foot tub and a closet for a washer and dryer. The 2nd floor offers 2 bedrooms and a ¾ bath. The garage can accommodate 3 cars and storage. There is central air and heat throughout. The sale includes the vacant land at 527 Brookside (APN 5763-016-015) and is included in the price. The property is across from Mary's Market and a short walk to Sierra Madre's cute downtown shops and restaurants. A rare opportunity to acquire a newer home with good parking in this charming neighborhood.
