Sunny Side Up Wohnung im charmanten gehobenen South Pasadena

Description:
New 2024 construction, 1-bedroom apartment in charming, upscale South Pasadena neighborhood 8.5 miles from downtown Los Angeles.
Property:
Compact 250sq ft bright and sunny new one bedroom apartment above our new garage building with a private entrance. Sleeps 4 (max 3 adults though) with queen size bed in bedroom, day bed and trundle in living room. Modern kitchen with all new appliances.
Guest access:
Sunny Side Up is on the second story, above our detached garage building. Your half of the second story is just for you with your own interior entrance. Us Pongs use the other half as our office.
Interaction with guests:
I will be in our main house the majority of the day tending to the children. You can shoot me a quick question or update me on your check-in or check-out time. If you need anything, I'll help as soon as I can.
Other details to note:
Location: We are in a quiet walking neighborhood just a few blooks from South Pasadena restaurants and Garfield Park, yet we have easy access to freeways. Downtown LA is just 8.5 miles away, beaches are 24 miles away.
Our family lives in main house and runs an in-home day care. I am often home during the day and am happy to help you make your stay more comfortable. Just let us know if you need to borrow anything like an iron, kitchen supplies, etc. Age-appropriate toys can be provided for little ones as well.
Note that the day care has babies in the main house and toddlers below your apartment. Both groups may be playing in the backyard visible from your apartment during week days.

Kitchen and Amenities:
Our modern galley kitchen includes a fridge, microwave, toaster oven (not a full size oven), induction two burner stove, dishwasher, and Keurig machine, plus a wide range of pots, pans and utensils. If you need anything else, let me know.
We have speedy wifi, no cable but a tv ready for you to sign in to your streaming network.
Shared washer and dryer are in the hall just outside your unit.

Bed Configuration:
The bedroom has a comfortable queen size bed. The living area has a day bed for a couch with a trundle underneath which can be used as two twin size beds. The trundle is only suitable for a child (as opposed to an adult) as it cannot be pulled out all the way and still allow access to the bathroom.
All have new, high-quality mattresses.
We also have a small pack-n-play crib we can set up for you.

Parking:
For the safety of the children, there is no car use of the driveway. During the day, you are allowed to park on the street. Please leave the parking spot directly in front of our house free for the daycare families. At night, South Pasadena does not allow parking on the street for more than 30 minutes from 2 am to 6 am without a permit. You can easily get a parking permit from the kiosk at the police department down the street for just $2 per day. The location is half a mile away at 1422 Mission Street. The kiosk area to buy the tickets is open 24/7. You can only get 1, 2, or 3 days at a time, so you will have to revisit the Police Department if you are staying longer. You can learn more about the overnight street parking permit by googling South Pasadena Parking Permit. If you know what car you’ll be using, you can print your parking pass ahead of time to display on your dashboard.

Transportation:
While Los Angeles doesn’t have a superb public transit system, we are near the Metro A line. It’s a 17 minute walk (0.7 miles/1.1km) to the Metro A line directly down Mission Street past the cute shops and restaurants. It’s a pleasant, flat walk. This can take you to Union Station (the main railway station) and throughout the area. Most people who don’t have a car use ride-sharing apps like Uber and Lyft. They are very prevalent in the area and a convenient way to get around.

Insider tips:
We love living in South Pasadena. Our 1910 craftsman styled home is typical of the historic area. Our guests seem to enjoy the peaceful neighborhood and its proximity to restaurants, shops and parks. We are just a 10-minute walk to downtown “South Pas” and a 5-minute drive to downtown Pasadena. We live in a great walking town, with interesting, historic houses, green space, and restaurants. It is not crowded, has easy-to-find parking, yet there is always something going on. The supermarkets are just a few blocks away and a fabulous park is just down the street. You can drive to downtown LA in 12-25 minutes and 30-50 minutes to various beaches, then come back to a peaceful, yet vibrant, neighborhood. We can give you ideas of where to eat or shop nearby.

Other details to note: As there are children around, no smoking of any kind is allowed on the property. Thank you.

Sunny Side Up is compact. We fit a lot in a small space.

Additional space: Note that we have two separate units on our property: Sunny Side Up and Guest Suite Annex. Both are on the second floor, one above the house (Guest Suite Annex) and the other above the detached garage building (Sunny Side Up). They are both best suited for 2 people, but can accommodate 4 (max 3 adults) if you prioritize saving money over ample space. Both have access to laundry facilities in the hall just outside Sunny Side Up.

Choose Guest Suite Annex for an open studio floor plan, a dining table and a recliner chair, plus a small balcony.

Choose Sunny Side Up for brand new everything, a modern, compact space, separate bedroom with queen bed and a tv for streaming.

Of course, you can rent both if you have a larger group of 4-8 people or switch from one to the other based on availability during your vacation.
