Ambassador Gardens is rolling out the red carpet for Pasadena new home buyers. The new Sales Gallery for Ambassador Gardens’ two communities of luxury condos in Pasadena, Villas and Terraces, is now located in the exquisite Merritt Mansion—a truly befitting location to provide an introduction to the exceptional lifestyle that awaits here.

The historic Merritt Mansion, built by railway/steel tycoon Hulett C. Merritt from 1905–1908, is one of Pasadena’s most celebrated Millionaire’s Row estates, with 17,329 square feet of Italian Renaissance grandeur. Buyers at Ambassador Gardens now have the unique opportunity to luxuriate in the Merritt Mansion while meeting with sales professionals and learning more about all that these new luxury flats and townhomes have to offer.

“There is no better way to set the stage for what Pasadena new home buyers will experience at Villas and Terraces at The Ambassador Gardens,” said Patrice Quishenberry, Vice President of Sales for etco HOMES. “These two exceptional new communities have redefined the standard for luxury downsizing in Pasadena, just as the Merritt Mansion redefined upscale living in the city more than a century ago.”

The historic Merritt Mansion is not the site for Ambassador Gardens’ Sales Gallery, providing a worthy first impression for these two luxury Pasadena new home communities.

Villas

The tri-level townhomes of Villas at The Ambassador Gardens feature one sumptuous feature after another, with three expansive, open-concept designs that live like high-end single-family residences—but without the high maintenance. Each Villas townhome features a large great room, its own private elevator, disappearing doors that expand the living spaces, leading to inspired private terraces and rooftop decks (per plan) with fireplace, and a four-car garage. Three to four bedrooms and up to four and one-half baths are offered in up to 3,717 square feet.

Terraces

Terraces at the Ambassador Gardens combines European-inspired architectural detail and luxurious appointments with fine craftsmanship and top-of-the-line materials for Pasadena new home buyers seeking upscale attached residences in Old Town. Ten distinctive three-bedroom designs showcase expansive single-level flats and tri-level townhomes with private elevators in 3,040 to 4,430 square feet of gorgeous living space. These spectacular homes also boast great rooms, formal dining rooms, media rooms, rooftop decks or outdoor terraces, and desirable bi-fold doors that sweep away to extend the living spaces.

Gourmet kitchens

Each Villas and Terraces residence features a lavish kitchen with professional Italian Linea Quattro flat-panel, European-style cabinetry in designer-selected finishes and featuring soft-close doors and drawers. Caesarstone® countertops dress expansive countertops and islands with eating bar (per plan), while professional Wolf and Asco appliances and built-in Subzero refrigerators give buyers the chef-level appliances they crave.

The best location 

The combination of luxe features, ample square footage, and low-maintenance lifestyles offered at Villas and Terraces has made the two communities popular among those who are looking to lower their workload at home—but not their luxury quotient—in a Pasadena new home. Another leading reason that buyers can’t get enough of Ambassador Gardens: the stellar location.

Villas’ and Terraces’ Old Town Pasadena address in the heart of one of the Southern California’s most desirable and most walkable locations puts residents within a short stroll of Pasadena best restaurants, entertainment, and museums, as well as the historic City Hall. Living in Ambassador Gardens makes the location even more desirable, with spectacular natural beauty all around. Vast lawns, lush gardens, meandering walkways, and soothing fountains and streams create the perfect backdrop for refined Pasadena living.
