6518 Elder Street

Nestled on a peaceful knoll atop a quiet dead end street, this delightful Highland Park bungalow offers a perfect blend of privacy and convenience. Just moments away from the trendy energy of York Blvd. and the vibrant scene of Old Town Pasadena, this home enjoys a prime location while maintaining a sense of seclusion, surrounded by fruit trees (including blood orange, yuzu, and avocado) and drought-tolerant landscaping. The inviting front porch is the ideal spot for morning coffee, with sweeping views of the tranquil neighborhood. Inside, the home features two cozy bedrooms, an updated kitchen with butcher block countertops and new appliances, a Jack-and-Jill bathroom, and a bright, airy living room showcasing original built-ins. A convenient half bath off the laundry room is perfect for hosting guests. Step outside into your own private retreat, complete with a spacious deck offering peek-a-boo views of the DTLA skyline, a covered gazebo, herb garden, and ample space for outdoor dining and picnics. The long driveway provides plenty of parking, and the oversized lot holds potential for an ADU. Additional storage is easily accessible beneath the house. The home has been thoughtfully updated with fresh interior paint, central heating and AC, new windows, updated plumbing, light fixtures, drip irrigation, and more. All this, within minutes of Highland Park's top spots like Kitchen Mouse, Highly Likely, Joy, and more.
