First time on the market in over 34 years! Garfield Park plays an iconic role in South Pasadena. From kids playing to dogs walking to tennis matches to free family movies, plus musical and theatre events – it is a gathering place for the community. Now you can own a front row seat to Garfield Park! This extremely rare 3 bedroom, 2 bath condo has straight on views of Garfield Park from the second story of 1720 Mission Street. This large condo space offers engineered hardwood floors and windows on 2 sides. It is a corner unit which sticks out onto Mission Street to allow views up and down the 4th of July parade route as well. The kitchen space has been professionally remodeled and features an open floor plan. Add in the huge closets in the primary bedroom, the 2 secure gated underground parking spaces, ridiculously close proximity to the center of South Pasadena (walk to Starbucks, Habit Burger, Fair Oaks Pharmacy, Gus's BBQ and dozens of other shops and restaurants) and you've got a dream living situation. Plus this condo is just ½ mile to Marengo Elementary School and South Pasadena Middle School and just ¾ mile to the High School. Imagine walking your kids to school every day! This building has been extensively updated over the past few years with energy efficient windows and roof. Don't wait to see this one because that tranquil balcony overlooking Garfield Park ain't gonna drink coffee by itself.
