About This Home

As of July 2014

Just fell out of escrow due to the cancellation of buyer's sale. PRICE JUST REDUCED $40,000! This spectacular North Monrovia home was originally built in 1947 but in 2004 the current owner tore it down with the exception of one wall and completely rebuilt it. Every component was replaced, when you walk in the front door you will think you are in a model home. Located on one of the most desired streets in Monrovia on a lot that was designed for outside entertaining. The well flowing floor-plan boasts two master suites, one up and one down. The huge kitchen is a dream come true for any gourmet cook featuring high quality natural wood cabinets with dove tail self-closing drawers, Cesar stone counters, walk in pantry, and a island with a veggie sink. The kitchen is open to a spacious family room with a built in entertainment center and fireplace in addition to a informal dining area. Additional features include hardwood floors, plantation shutters, dual zone heating and air, concrete tile roof plus much more! The oversize 2 car garage, which is secured by an electric gate, is heated and air-conditioned, there is a toilet and utility sink, built in work bench, storage cabinets plus a pull down ladder for attic storage. This is a must see home!
