Description
Welcome to Covina, affectionately known as “Pasadena East,” where classic neighborhood charm meets modern convenience in the heart of the San Gabriel Valley. Situated on a quiet residential street, this updated 3-bedroom, 2-bathroom home sits on a nearly 9,000-square-foot flat lot, offering abundant outdoor space, mature landscaping, and room for relaxation, gardening, entertaining, or future expansion. One of the longest driveways in the neighborhood provides ample off-street parking in addition to the detached two-car garage.

The drought-tolerant front yard features California native landscaping, while the backyard is a gardener’s paradise with raised garden beds and mature fruit trees, including orange, guava, mango, kumquat, peach, and lemon. The expansive lot offers rare potential to add living space or enhance outdoor amenities.

Inside, recent improvements include new lighting throughout, a newer water heater, upgraded door hardware, fresh exterior paint, and refreshed interior paint. The kitchen features painted cabinetry, new hardware, laminate flooring, updated plumbing fixtures, under-cabinet lighting, and includes a freestanding sideboard and banquette.

Both bathrooms have been updated with new plumbing fixtures and flooring. The black-and-white bathroom includes a new low-flow toilet and professionally reglazed bathtub, countertops, and tile baseboards. Upgraded electrical outlets throughout the home include select outlets with built-in USB charging ports.

The private primary suite enjoys direct access to the backyard and covered patio, creating a peaceful indoor-outdoor retreat.

Additional highlights include a 220-volt EV charging outlet, Ring doorbell, updated exterior lighting, garage improvements, and an above-ground pool with a programmable timer-controlled pump. Technology features include Cat5 Ethernet wiring between bedrooms, an attic-mounted directional antenna for over-the-air TV reception, and coaxial connections in both the living room and primary bedroom.

Combining character, modern updates, sustainable landscaping, productive fruit trees, and exceptional outdoor space, this move-in-ready home offers comfortable California living in a desirable San Gabriel Valley location. Covina’s ongoing investments in infrastructure, local amenities, and convenient Metrolink access to Downtown Los Angeles further enhance its appeal.
