277 Pleasant St

Pleasant Villas is a low-rise residential condominium complex built in 1973 consisting of three stories and predominantly one-bedroom floorplans. The architecture reads as mid-century garden-style apartments with staggered walkways, exterior balconies and a landscaped central courtyard. Units are single-level and typically include a living room with fireplace, an eat-in or galley kitchen, recessed lighting, crown molding and storage-focused built-ins; many residences have private patios or balconies, walk-in closets and one to one-and-a-half bathrooms. Common-area infrastructure supports accessibility and convenience: elevator access to upper floors, subterranean gated parking with assigned spaces, community laundry on each level and additional storage rooms. Shared amenities emphasize recreation and everyday wellness — a swimming pool, fitness room, sauna, a lounge/meeting room and a sun deck/courtyard for socializing. Recent listings and renovations show many interiors updated with quartz or granite counters, new cabinetry and laminated or engineered wood floors while HOA dues commonly cover water, trash and earthquake insurance. The complex is pet-friendly with restrictions on number and size of dogs. Located within walking distance of Old Town Pasadena, South Lake shopping and Metro Gold Line stations, Pleasant Villas sits on a quiet, tree-lined street offering immediate access to shops, restaurants, transit and regional freeways.
