About 1003 Monterey Rd

Large 2 story home in the center of the flat part of South Pasadena - right near South Pasadena High School for lease. One of the only larger homes currently for lease in South Pasadena. Just a very short distance to both South Pasadena High School and Middle School, plus Trader Joe's, shops, Farmer's Market, Metro Rail, restaurants, library and the center of South Pasadena. This 4 bedroom, 5 bath home is on a corner lot at Monterey Road and Meridian Avenue. This home has high ceilings and an abundance of living space (2,400 square feet per the assessor). The upstairs contains 3 large bedrooms complete with curved ceilings preserved from the original architecture. There is a 4th bedroom on the ground floor. You'll enjoy a generously sized home with an ample number of rooms for a large family or a multi-generational household. Multiple major upgrades have been done to this house within the past several years including: new roof, dual pane sound-proofing windows, new sewer line, new interior and exterior paint, new landscaping and garden work. This home is in the award-winning South Pasadena School District and you'll also love the verdant garden space and patio surrounding this home. It's on a fairly busy cross street (Monterey Road) and does not have central heat and air - but it's priced to lease quickly. This is absolutely the best deal on a larger home currently for lease in South Pasadena.
