This Spanish Monterey located in the exclusive gated community of La Vina boasts smashing city and mountain views and an abundance of natural light-filled rooms. The Portofino floor plan affords a seamless transition between indoor/outdoor space, ideal for large scale entertaining or intimate family gatherings. Home Performance Matters performed an energy efficiency audit and installed the most efficient dual zoned HVAC system, including replacement of ducts. Additionally, you’ll appreciate the whole house water filtration and softening systems, the benefit of owned solar panels, solid maple cabinets throughout, bamboo flooring and upgraded tile. This is arguably one of the best and largest lots in La Vina, with a private garden with guava and kumquat trees and drought-tolerant landscaping. Rooms on the main level include grand entry, living room, dining room, chef’s kitchen with spacious prep island open to family room, and bedroom suite. The wrought iron staircase leads you to the second floor with spacious owner’s suite, three bedrooms and office/exercise room. This distinctive home is steps away from Chaney trailhead and a luxury community salt water pool while being minutes from Old Pasadena, the Rose Bowl, and Descanso Gardens.
