About This Home

As of July 2022

Charm and modern living coexist in harmony in this lovely Monrovia Craftsman home. Built in 1923 and expanded/remodeled by Bowden Development in 2010 and then added on to by the current owners, this home offers a contemporary open living space. Updated surfaces throughout. The master suite is very large and features high ceilings, an attached office/retreat, a walk-in closet typically found in much larger homes, and French doors to the French style rear yard. Multiple entertaining areas, garden boxes, rose arbor, boxwood hedges, and gravel paths all spell romance. The unique vintage entry gate was recently featured in a commercial photo shoot. A two car garage and (electric) gated parking pad offers secure parking for three cars. Per city & Buyer to Verify: Zoning is RM3500 which allows for another house on the property. Restrictions apply. All this and two blocks from the restaurants and shops of Old Town Monrovia on Myrtle Blvd.
