Whispering Waters, c. 1960, a Pasadena Historic Landmark and one of the area's most beloved Mid Century Modern properties, was designed by noted developer Lionel V. Mayell to bring indoor/outdoor living to apartment-dwellers through lush landscaping and panoramic views of the San Gabriel Mountains. Enjoy mid-century living at its finest in this spacious, light-filled single-story condo. This second-story two bedroom / two bathroom unit has been tastefully renovated and updated while leaving much of the original MCM charm intact, including original Pullman sinks, expansive travertine-topped vanities, and skylight-like overhead lighting in the generous bathrooms, and floor-to-ceiling sliding glass doors from the sprawling living room to the large private balcony perfect for al fresco dining. The bright kitchen offers new quartz counters paired with original ash cabinets. With a walk score of 95 you can leave your cars in the unit's two underground parking spaces and enjoy the easy proximity to some of Pasadena's best and most popular shopping, dining, and cultural institutions such as Sugarfish, Trader Joes, Nick's, The Arbour, Philz Coffee, Republik, Pasadena Playhouse and so many more. Caltech and PCC are minutes away. Hop on the bike lane outside the front door for a quick ride to Huntington Gardens or Old Town. All new electrical subpanel keeps the conveniences of modern life humming along. Mills Act designation offers owners steep reductions on annual property taxes.
