About This Home
As of June 2025Nestled on an idyllic street in the highly sought-after North Monrovia neighborhood, this 1936 cottage-style bungalow exudes timeless charm and inviting warmth. A lovely wrap-around porch welcomes you into an open and bright living space featuring original hardwood floors, custom moldings, and a classic coved ceiling. The updated galley-style kitchen seamlessly opens to the living room and features stainless steel appliances. Just off the kitchen, a spacious and sunlit dining room is beautifully appointed with wainscoting and a picturesque bay window that provides the perfect backdrop for both intimate meals and effortless entertaining. Thoughtful features include recessed lighting, ceiling fans, and a stackable washer and dryer. Situated on a generous lot of nearly 9,000 sq. ft. with a giant oak anchoring the front yard, the home also offers two large garage/storage structures at the rear, ideal for additional storage or future expansion. A spacious outdoor deck creates the perfect setting for al fresco dining, morning coffee, or simply enjoying the serene surroundings. Whether you're dreaming of adding a pool or building an accessory dwelling unit (ADU), the possibilities are abundant. All this is just moments from the charm and convenience of Old Town Monrovia, with its vibrant shops, restaurants, parks, and easy access to public transportation and everyday conveniences.
