Welcome to the Virginia Manor and the opportunity to live in one of Pasadena's most desirable neighborhoods - Millionaire's Row steeped in history, culture and refinement. The expansive 1,634 sqft floor plan offers 3 nicely-sized bedrooms, 2.5 baths and is ideally positioned as an end unit at the front of the building allowing natural light to warm and brighten the large gracious rooms - And, the enviable opportunity to view and host annual New Year's Eve float festivities from your living room! Upon entry the eye will travel toward the oversized living room and dining area. This expansive space features an attractive fireplace and a large picture window with views to the tree-lined street and stately residences that define this famed neighborhood. The kitchen offers new, stylish tilework and a new Whirlpool side-by-side refrigerator. In 2019, the kitchen was updated with a Wolf 4-burner range, a Bosch oven and dishwasher, quartz counters and white shaker style cabinetry for effective storage. For convenience, the kitchen's side door leads to the driveway and garage area. The original bathrooms have been maintained. In preparation for the market, the unit was refreshed with new vinyl flooring, the walls painted, some new modern light fixtures and a new washer and dryer added. This unit offers central air and heat, has a single car garage space with storage and an exclusive-use front porch to enjoy the neighborhood. A small dog and/or cat is permitted at the discretion of the owner. Ideally located just minutes from Old Pasadena's upscale shopping, diverse dining and world-renowned museums. Nature lovers will appreciate the proximity to the Arroyo Seco trails and Rose Bowl recreation area, while commuters will value the easy access to the 210, 134 and 110 freeways. It is clear that 681 South Orange Grove has much to offer and is a wonderful spot to call Home.
