144 N Michigan Ave #05, Pasadena, CA 91106, USA

Tucked toward the back of the building on the second floor, Unit 05 at 144 N. Michigan Avenue offers the kind of quiet, generous living that’s hard to find this close to the heart of Pasadena. This spacious two-bedroom, one-bath home opens into an expansive living room made for real life: room for a deep sofa and a cozy setup, a dedicated dining area for dinners with friends, and a large private balcony just steps away for morning coffee or evening unwinding. A wall-mounted heating and cooling system and a ceiling fan keep you comfortable in every season. The galley-style kitchen is built for people who actually cook, with plenty of countertop space and a full appliance package that includes a stove, refrigerator, dishwasher, and microwave. Down the hall, two well-proportioned bedrooms each have built-in closets with mirrored sliding doors that add light and space. The bedrooms sit on either side of the hallway bathroom, which gives each room its own privacy. The bathroom also holds in-unit laundry, so you’ll never haul a basket to a shared laundry room again. Life here is easy from the moment you arrive. Secure intercom entry, an elevator, and gated parking with your own assigned space take care of everyday hassles. Step outside and you’re just down the street from downtown Pasadena, with its bars, boutiques, restaurants, and entertainment within easy reach. Homes with this much space, this much comfort, and this location don’t stay available for long, so schedule your private tour of Unit 05 today.
