About This Home

As of July 2022

Experience the best of both worlds in every aspect of this Craftsman-style home. The location offers the occupants access to an urban lifestyle. Located just two blocks from all the amenities of Old Town Monrovia, you can enjoy restaurants, shopping, or a movie without the hassle of finding a parking spot. Return home to a private, tranquil retreat with gardens that offer several intimate areas for rest & relaxation. The exterior was lovingly restored to improve its original character with period-appropriate colors & custom artistic details such as a stained glass fixture, mosaic house number, & vintage-style screens & screen doors. You enter an open-concept floorplan with original built-ins as you pass through the front door. The home has been expanded over time and allows plenty of space. The kitchen has been updated with a modern yet timeless design, including shaker cabinets, a 30” Pro Harmony Thermador Professional Range and hood with a 1000 cfm blower, Caesar stone countertops, and a subway tile backsplash. There’s plenty of storage, including custom rev-a-shelf cabinet inserts, built-in drawer organizers, and a walk-in pantry. The primary suite features high ceilings and a closet the size of a bedroom. Bonus space off the primary suite is presently utilized as a home office and craft room. From the home, enjoy views of the gardens with mountains in the background. There are approx. 125 sf of redwood raised beds with an organic vegetable garden. Mature fruit trees include an apple, avocado, tangerine, and lemon. The entire landscape is managed with a smart sprinkler controller that makes it easy to be water-wise. Other features include dual-pane windows, a smart thermostat, and smart lighting in the kitchen. Zoning is currently RM3500, which allows for another house on the property. Restrictions apply. The detached 2-car garage offers the possibility of an ADU.
