Enchanting, remodeled 1924 California bungalow, on a quiet, cul-de-sac street in Monrovia - known for its small town charm and historic downtown - close to Pasadena, with easy access to NELA, Glendale and Downtown LA. This 2 Bedroom / 1 Bath, cheery and character rich home offers thoughtful updates, plus a separate bonus space, perfect for guests, a home office, or studio with additional built-in storage. A pathway lined with California native plants invites you to sit on the sweet front porch in awe of the San Gabriel Mountains in the distance. Once inside, the love affair continues. A living room with original windows and wood paneling, flows into a sunny dining area, with French doors opening to the backyard deck and spacious flat yard. A bright and smartly designed kitchen layout maximizes storage space, with room to enjoy a casual breakfast or cook your favorite recipes with friends. An easy floor plan connects two bedrooms and a remodeled bathroom to the communal living spaces. Outside, soak in the sunshine or enjoy the mature tree that shades the grassy yard, surrounded by fruit trees and native plants with a full drip irrigation system. A gated and newly poured driveway on one side of the house provides additional off-street parking and access to the storage and studio. The original garage was rebuilt from the ground up and fully permitted, adding more than 300sf of work and storage space. Recent updates include a new electrical panel, updated electrical and plumbing, new water heater, new HVAC system and ductwork, and many other cosmetic and exterior updates throughout. A short walk or drive to the Farmers Market, restaurants, and cafes in Old Town Monrovia, and an even shorter stroll to Trader Joes and nearby shopping. An adorable, move-in ready home that evokes calm, peace and inspiration.
