Penthouse style views on a coveted first floor unit in Monterey Hills. This home has an intuitive and well-designed floorpan that maximizes the breathtaking views and indoor-outdoor flow. From an open and spacious living and dining room, there are large sliding doors to an expansive wraparound balcony with views of the hills and Downtown LA. The generous private outdoor space is ideal for hosting. This is the spot to host a summer barbecue or to wind down with an evening drink after a long day. The primary bedroom and secondary bedrooms are located at opposite sides of the home creating the much needed separation for anyone working at home. The primary bedroom features an ensuite bathroom, a generous closet and views. There's great storage throughout with thoughtful built-ins and a large laundry room. There is side by side parking, access to EV chargers, a sparkling pool and spa, gym, clubhouse and park-like trails and grassy areas. When not enjoying your home or views, you are only moments away from hiking in Ernest Debs, dog parks, hip restaurants in Northeast LA, including Secret Pizza (down the street), HomeState, Highland Park Bowl, Goldline and many more. Monterey Hills is a quiet peaceful pocket conveniently located to Highland Park, Pasadena, Downtown LA, San Gabriel Valley and easy commute with access to the 110 and L train.
