Located at 211 South Wilson Avenue in Pasadena you will find Somerset House - a collection of 30 single level condominiums.    Built in 1965 the handsome exterior of the building features a gated entry leading to an impressive courtyard/atrium.

Its ideal location is just north of the Caltech(California Institute of Technology) and just west of Pasadena City College(PCC).   South Lake Avenue, the Playhouse District and the Gold Line station at Lake Avenue are just a short stroll away.   

The condos at Somerset House range in size from one bedroom/one bath to three bedrooms/three baths.   While, the professionally managed homeowner association fees(HOA) are high(nearly $600 per month as of this writing) all utilities are covered. There are community laundry facilities.   Parking is in the subterranean garage. While there is no pool or spa in the complex, there are parks in the neighborhood offering many recreational opportunities or just a spot to relax.


There are currently no condos available for sale at Somerset House.   According to our local multiple listings service(MLS) there have been three sales in 2012.   A first floor one bedroom unit closed in October for $215,000 and there were two three bedroom sales this year.  A first floor unit closed in July for $330,000(list price $299,000) and a second floor unit sold $325,000(short sale).    In 2011, there were two sales listed in the MLS.  Both were two bedrooms selling, each selling for $279,000.

There are many condo complexes in Pasadena and while our current inventory is low, you just never know when just the right property for you may be available(in the MLS or not) so if you are a prospective buyer, a homeowner thinking of selling or just curious about our local Pasadena real estate market check www.camoves.com/michael.jacobs call or text 818.516.4393 or michaeljacobs@coldwellbanker.com.     I look forward to discussing with you the possibilities of real estate in Pasadena.

Michael - Wonderful presentation of Somerset House Condos in Pasadena CA and while the fees are high it covers a lot  of expenses owners have to pay anyways, in our area monthly maintenance fees don't cover much.

Michael, Entrance to Somerset House Condos reminds me of the buildings in NYC. Monthly dues are a bit high but when you consider the utilties it covers, doesn't seem that high. Great presentation!

I love the Christmas lights in this picture.  It makes me smile to think about celebrating Christmas in warm weather.  Your information on this condominium complex is very valuable - as always.  Thank you!

Somerset House is very attractive, Michael.  The fact that it has a high walk score is an added bonus!
