Property Description

Offered for the first time since 1957, this 1911 Craftsman represents a rare generational opportunity in one of Monrovia’s most beloved character neighborhoods. Set on a generous 8,356 sf lot, this home reflects enduring architectural craftsmanship throughout. Coffered ceilings, extraordinary original wood windows, and a dramatic living room picture window create a sense of volume and natural light that is hard to find. A gracious front porch, perfectly suited for a porch swing invites peaceful morning coffees or relaxed evenings at home. The residence offers four bedrooms, including a charming upstairs retreat. Recently refreshed interiors complement the preserved character while maintaining the integrity of the original design. The 1957 kitchen remains a nostalgic mid-century chapter, presenting thoughtful potential for future refinement. A true architectural gem, the original carriage house garage with added workshop remains intact; a distinctive feature seldom remaining in properties of this era. Centrally located near the Monrovia Trader Joe’s shopping center with Kohl’s, Marshalls, In-N-Out and many other shopping and dining options, the location offers both accessibility and the quiet charm of a tucked-away cul-de-sac. The property qualifies for Mills Act and historic designations, offering potential property tax advantages for those who value the stewardship of historic homes (buyer to investigate and apply). A storybook home built to endure. Don’t miss the chance to step inside and imagine your next chapter.
