Pasadena CA Real Estate

EATON CREST

Eaton Crest complex consists of 2 buildings.  The first one is at 4499 Via Marisol and is large enough to be separated into three different sections.  That’s why you will find 4499A Via Marisol, 4499B Via Marisol and 4499B Via Marisol.  The second building is much smaller and is at 4589 Via Marisol. 

Amenities include a pool, a spa and a huge recreation room that can be rented for parties.  Eaton Crest just underwent extensive updating, has been repainted and has one of the most beautiful landscape designs on the hill.

Washer & dryer hook ups are on each floor, as well as trash chutes.

Built in 1981, as part of the original Monterey Hills residential community plan, Fremont Villas is a 45 unit townhome complex.  It is accessed off of Via Marisol and sits next to Vallejo Villas. 

With beautiful views of rolling hills towards South Pasadena, Fremont Villas offers Spanish architecture with cozy porches, clay tile roofs, and lush landscaping.  As I drive through this complex, the birds are singing and the tree branches are rustling and the feeling of serenity is in the air.

Fremont Villa’s amenities include a recreation room, pool and spa, a sun deck, and easy guest parking both inside the complex and on Via Marisol.

For the most part, these are 2 and 3 bedroom homes with attached garages and balconies.
