This 1928 English Tudor Revival situated in a highly desirable area of North Monrovia is designated Historic Landmark #157 and benefits from reduced property taxes due to the Mills Act Contract. The house was built by August and Amanda Rydbeck and was the second residence to be built on the street, along with its "fraternal twin" next door. This storybook-style cottage features steeply pitched double gabled roof, attic vents, tall arched multi-paned windows, and a front porch with brick columns, eyebrow dormer and wrought iron railings. It boasts many original features, harkening back to days gone by. Entering the arched front door with a steeple, the first thing you notice is the amazing CALCO tile fireplace with a peacock design, tile hearth and wood mantle in the living room, along with a barrel ceiling, wall sconces, original gumwood trim, and tall windows. Through a large archway, you’ll find the formal dining room with picture frame molding and sliding doors to the front porch. The remodeled galley kitchen features a breakfast room with built-in buffet and hutch, black & white ceramic tile countertops appropriate to the period of the house, Kitchen-Aid appliances, Bosch dishwasher, crown molding, ample wood cabinetry with gun metal hardware, built-in double oven, gas cooktop, double sink with pendant lighting above, and a laundry area with Electrolux stackable washer & dryer. There are three bedrooms, each with wall sconces, ceiling fans and crown molding. In the hallway are two remodeled bathrooms, both with walk-in showers and vanities. Out back is a two-car detached garage, a large rear yard, and ample parking in the new driveway. Other amenities include original hardwood flooring, copper plumbing, updated electrical, central air & heat, seismic retrofit, rain gutters, and mature landscaping, including a spectacular Deodar cedar tree. Move right in to this fantastic home and own a piece of Monrovia history!
