About This Home
As of March 2023Vintage to Green! This gorgeous 1920s Spanish Colonial Revival was re-imagined from the ground up, and is now GreenPoint Rated, a designation from the national organization, Build It Green. Located in North Monrovia on one of the most sought-after streets, this impeccable home was originally built in 1925, but was substantially overhauled and completed in 2017. With 630 square feet of new construction added, the existing interior was nearly entirely gutted. With the charm and warmth of a vintage home, it feels like a new house with its modern yet timeless finishes. Some of the many updates include: new Santa Barbara-style exterior smooth plaster finish, new energy-efficient windows and exterior doors, new electrical throughout, including 200-amp panel, new central heating and air conditioning system, new plumbing with tank-less water heater, new light fixtures with LED bulbs or LED integration, new Caesarstone quartz countertops, new concrete driveway, new Spanish clay roof tiles, new alder wood interior doors, new custom-built cabinetry, and so much more. The exterior has been exquisitely landscaped and offers a stately veranda and two more patios - totaling over 600 square feet of outdoor living space. The solid oak hardwood floors were installed alongside the original oak floors, the Batchelder fireplace tile was revealed beneath years of paint, and the gorgeous cove ceilings were retained and given a fresh coat of smooth plaster. This home will not disappoint.
