Mid-Century beauty located in the tranquil Franciscan Woods community of South Pasadena, this beautifully upgraded 3-bed, 3-bath end-unit townhome offers warmth, elegance, and a quiet sense of retreat, all tucked within a peaceful residential enclave with a private gated patio. A welcoming front patio invites you in with dappled sunlight and the rustle of mature trees, ideal for morning coffee and unwinding with your favorite book. Entering through the front door, you'll find a split-level living room where vaulted ceilings and a cozy fireplace create a light-filled, inviting space. A floor-to-ceiling sliding glass door opens to the patio for easy indoor-outdoor living. Just above, the elevated dining area features a built-in window bench with hidden storage, adding charm and function beneath a sunny window. The kitchen offers quartz countertops, custom cabinetry with glass-panel uppers, and all stainless steel appliances with upgraded LG Studio Series, including a 5-burner gas range and dishwasher, paired with a like-new InstaView fridge and NXR hood.

All three bathrooms are finished with full-height tile and reinforced concrete subflooring to help prevent moisture. The lower-level bath, originally a half bath, now includes a shower. Upstairs, the Primary Suite is a peaceful retreat. Vaulted ceilings and a picture window frame the calming view of leafy treetops, bringing nature into the suite. A in-suite closet and double vanity bath complete the space. The second upstairs bedroom includes a wide-set window and its own en suite with double vanity and tub. Upgraded Milgard window frames throughout the home offer durability and energy efficiency while enhancing the clean, contemporary profile.
