The townhomes are a larger with two or three bedrooms in two story floor plans.  The townhomes have fireplaces, vaulted ceilings and direct access to an attached two car garage.

This idyllic location is close to the Azusa Greens Golf Course and to the revitalized Downtown Azusa shopping area where a large Target store has opened as well as smaller shops and restaurants.   A station of the Gold Line light rail station is planned here as well and both the Foothill(210) and the San Gabriel River(605) freeways are easily accessible.  Crystal Canyon  is just west of the new master planned Rosedale development the largest new home development in the San Gabriel Valley further enhancing this mountside city.

Hi Mark --- I would be happy to represent a homeowner who wants to sell their Crystal Canyon condo or townhome.   The same goes to any prospective buyer in the area.

Hi Michael - Nice market report. I remember when I first moved to LA and discovered that there were great views of the mountains (well, we'd call them foothills, but why quibble?). Views are a great feature, and Crystal Canyon looks like a great place to live.

Hi Dick - ah yes the age old discussion of mountains(California) versus hills(Colorado) -- Azusa is east of Pasadena and offers a lot more house(or condo) for the money so the area is one for people to consider.

Michael, San Gabriel Mountains looks very beautiful in your pictures and Crystal Canyon condominium would be a great place to purchase real estate and 14 Sales in one year in the same complex is good thing.

Bob - this is a fairly large complex for our area.

Joy - the location is a bit further east of Pasadena where land was much cheaper back in the mid 1980s when Crystal Canyon was built --- it's rare to find this much land surrounding condos/townhomes in Pasadena and nothing with this many units in one complex.   

Sharon - the moutains make a nice backdrop to the community.

Sarah and Les - single family homes too!   Thanks, I appreciate your very nice comments.

Michael - Crystal Canyon condos are so different than most of the other condo developments in the greater Pasadena area.  The mountain view and setting is wonderful.  It's nice to have so many options!

Dave - thanks -- the amount of open space and the proximity of the mountains as well as the amenities in the complex make it a viable and affordable option.

Laura - very good observation - it does have a definite different feel from what buyers will find in Pasadena.

Melissa -- very easy to remember everythig from A to Z in the USA.....AZUSA - from the city website:

 the Shoshonean Indian, locally known as the Gabrieleno when the area of Azusa was first inhabited by white immigrants and homesteaders. Their community was known as Asuksa-nga. It is said Azusa was derived from the Indian name.

Hi Patricia - Azusa is a city moving forward with lots of re-development, the Rosedale complex I mentioned and the arrival of the Gold Line expansion in 2015 -- all very positive signs!   Thanks for stopping by.
