About This Home

Discover a rare opportunity in the vibrant city of Monrovia, where tree-lined streets meet a lively mix of restaurants, coffee houses, and small-town charm.

Each residence offers 2 bedrooms and 1 bath, thoughtfully designed for comfort and functionality. Situated on a generous 9,310 sq. ft. lot, the property presents exciting potential for future development.

Whether you’re expanding your investment portfolio or looking for a home that pays for itself, this Monrovia gem offers it all.
