La Casa di Pasadena-- Impressionist Art Lover's Dream

Nestled in the City of Roses' quiet Southeast District, bordering San Marino/ the Chapman Woods, La Casa di Pasadena's private master en suite provides the perfect winter retreat for a couple celebrating a romantic holiday--or a solo traveler seeking a lengthy escape, to bask in the glow of the So Cal winter sun.... Here, Old World ambience, European Impressionist artwork, private entrances, brand new, custom luxurious, yet comfortable, furnishings, and a cozy fireplace welcome you, whoever you might be.
A beautifully renovated townhome, La Casa di Pasadena is centrally located and within close proximity to major landmarks/attractions: Cal Tech, the Huntington Library & Gardens, the South Lake Shopping District, the Pasadena Playhouse, the Convention Center, the Laemmle Theater, fine restaurants, the Norton Simon Museum, the Rose Bowl & Parade route, the Santa Anita Race Track, the Jet Propulsion Laboratory, Burbank Studios, the Hollywood Walk of Fame, golf courses, hiking trails, parks, libraries, the Dodger's Stadium, China Town, and Downtown LA.

After a Saturday afternoon shopping spree in Old Town or a trip to the nearby Farmer's Market, prepare a scrumptious meal or a romantic candle-light dinner for two; go for a dip in the pool at the nearby Rose Bowl's Aquatic Center; or walk to Starbuck's or the local pub, Plate 38, for angel hair pasta pomodoro or a classic barbeque burger, gingered sweet potato fries, and a signature cocktail, like the "Samurai" or the "Black Manhattan." Join locals and global travelers--camp out on Colorado Blvd. on New year's Eve and seize front row seats to the Rose Parade! Drive to Malibu beach for an afternoon of surfing or relaxation in the sand at sunset. Take the train to downtown LA to enjoy a matinee performance of Puccini's "Tosca" at the Dorothy Chandler Pavilion, or spend an evening listening to the LA Phil Harmonic, if not the music of Chucho Valdez, at the Walt Disney Concert Hall. Here, the possibilities are endless....

La Casa di Pasadena's adjacent serene, grassy oasis is perfect for meditation, a daily yoga workout, reading/relaxing, or a quiet picnic for two in the heart of the city! The home's available master bedroom en suites is the perfect place to relax, unwind, and enjoy private time. The living room's custom Douglas Fir French doors open to a private patio that extends the outdoors, letting in sunlight during the day and the cool, fresh evening breeze during the evening.

Use the Viking stove/convection oven to put your cooking/baking skills to the test, if you're so inclined, in the home's bright, spacious kitchen . Enjoy formal dinners and fine wine for two at the dining room's Tuscan-style table and the adjacent bar buffet in the evenings. Use the common areas to dine informally and enjoy a Sunday brunch, conversation, or a chess game with other house guests, any time of day or evening, at the custom, rustic breakfast nook table. Maple wood blinds and beautiful draperies provide privacy, when desired, while the home's brand new designer/custom furnishings, and the master en suite's brand new luxury mattress make your stay very comfortable, as well as pleasurable.

Indeed, every season--from winter to spring, to summer and fall--is a great season to explore the historic city of Pasadena, on an extended 31-day* or longer stay. There's no place like Pasadena! It's the city where Albert Einstein once taught at Cal Tech, where Jackie Robinson learned to play baseball, and where a 16 year old chef prepared the nation's first cheeseburgers. Explore it all and retire nightly to a luxurious townhome retreat--with your own private master bedroom ensuite and balcony--the perfect place for a romantic get-away for two, or simply solitude, if you're a business traveler. Be the first to stay in and review this renovated, newly furnished, beautiful home this winter! You won't want to leave....
