Perched above the historic Monterey Road Pass in the cozy hillside neighborhood of Hermon, this updated and remodeled home offers scenic views and tranquil living. Tucked between Arroyo Seco, Monterey Hills, Highland Park, and South Pasadena, you'll find a hidden gem that blends peaceful seclusion with easy city access. Brick-lined stairs lead to a charming composite front deck, perfect for morning coffee or evening sunsets with views stretching across Hermon and the Monterey Hills. Entering through the front door, the living room welcomes you with engineered hardwood flooring and dual-pane windows that fill the space with natural light. The layout flows into a dining area and a thoughtfully updated kitchen with quartz countertops, stainless steel appliances--including a gas range, dishwasher, microwave, and fridge--and easy-to-clean linoleum flooring. Down the hall, both bedrooms are comfortably sized and feature lighted ceiling fans and generous closets. The first bathroom boasts tile flooring, a dual-sink vanity with river rock countertops, and a custom-tiled shower stall with a rain shower head and matching river rock floors. At the end of the hall is a second full bathroom with sleek black hex tile, a deep soaking tub with oversized subway tile walls, a rain shower head, handheld shower head, and a stylish single-sink vanity. A brand-new stackable washer and dryer is conveniently tucked away here too. Out back, the home extends into a multi-level outdoor oasis. A wood deck off the kitchen makes for a great dining or lounge spot, leading up to a terraced hillside landscaped with lush greenery. The middle terrace offers a patch of artificial grass, market lights, and multiple spots to entertain or relax. Climb a bit higher and you'll find a quiet seating area at the top--ideal for taking in panoramic views of the hills and skyline. Backed up against Ernest E. Debs Regional Park and with quick access to Rose Hill Park, Hermon Park, Downtown LA, and Dodger Stadium via the Arroyo Seco Parkway, this hillside retreat offers both charm and convenience in one of Northeast LA's best-kept secrets.

As a licensed real estate brokerage, Estately has access to the same database professional Realtors use: the Multiple Listing Service (or MLS). That means we can display all the properties listed by other member brokerages of the local Association of Realtors—unless the seller has requested that the listing not be published or marketed online.
The MLS is widely considered to be the most authoritative, up-to-date, accurate, and complete source of real estate for-sale in the USA.
Estately updates this data as quickly as possible and shares as much information with our users as allowed by local rules. Estately can also email you updates when new homes come on the market that match your search, change price, or go under contract.
