What a gem!
Julie is great and very responsive. She clearly takes pride in this place! This was a last minute booking while relocating my tenants. Moving out unexpectedly was a stressful situation but as soon as they settled in here they felt comfortable and relaxed. The location is perfect as well. Quiet and private yet walking distance to many amenities. We appreciate your hospitality Julie! Thanks so much again!

Adorable home in Pasadena
We enjoyed our stay at this cute and comfy home in Pasadena! The neighborhood was adorable. It was the perfect size for our group. We loved sitting in the sunroom every morning to enjoy breakfast! We had a few issues with the water heater but Julie was very helpful and quick to respond! We will definitely stay again.

Simply Wonderful!
We really enjoyed our stay in this property and Pasadena. It is within easy walking distance of Lake Avenue for anything you might need (food, dry cleaner ...) and if you like walking around a beautiful and quiet neighborhood. The home is well maintained, and has everything you need. The Alexa-powered feature is a surprise and amazing. Place was perfect and beautiful, and Julie and her staff made it so easy. We loved the place and already thinking about coming back.

Pasadena Doll House
We stayed in Julie’s property for a month to be close to our daughter after the arrival of our grandson. We couldn’t have been more pleased with the property and location. The property is on a cute little street so close to shopping and restaurants. We enjoyed aimlessly walking around the surrounding neighborhood of beautiful homes and landscaping including some of the most magnificent trees. The home is cozy and has everything you need to be comfortable for an extended stay. The owner Julie is awesome communicating before and during your stay. Couldn’t recommend this property enough. We hopefully we’ll be back soon!

Never wanted to leave
This property is even nicer than the photos. It’s spacious, light, the kitchen is fantastic and perfectly stocked. The beds are comfortable, sheets fantastic, spacious bathroom. Closets are spacious and lit from within. It’s a completely “smart” house so the lights etc are voice controlled. When we arrived, the house was immaculate. The neighborhood is lovely to walk. This house is super quiet. Julie was a fantastic and communicative owner. I felt comfortable from the moment we arrived and was sad to leave. A thousand stars!!!!!

We moved back to Los Angeles and our house wasn’t ready for 7 weeks. We stayed at Julies home with our fur babies and it was absolutely a perfect place to land. Adorable home, beautiful street and great host. I would highly recommend staying here!! (And I’m picky)

About the host

Hosted by Julie Richter

Host profile image
I'm a regular traveler and have learned some of the important comforts needed when traveling so have designed my home with that in mind. This is not my full time home but has been for my private use until now and I am opening up my doors to you to share such a lovely peaceful experience. I hope you enjoy your stay as much as I do when I stay there.

Why they chose this property

Fresh, clean, and well maintained with attention to detail. Feel the comforts of a real home while knowing you will be well looked after. Many of the renters have been back again to stay they have loved it so much. If you are looking for a comfortable space to call home while in Pasadena, look no further.

What makes this property unique

Prime location-peaceful quiet street but within a few minutes walk to shops and restaurants. So convenient and easy to access. And as the previous tenants have said "a very charming home" & "it's just perfect".
