Property Description

Nestled serenely above the canyon with breathtaking mountain views, this mid-century gem in Monrovia offers the perfect blend of original charm and modern updates. At the front of the home, a charming courtyard with pebble pavers and a flagstone path welcomes you. Come inside to find stone tile flooring that transitions into original hardwood in the living area, where a pitched wood-beam ceiling and a striking flagstone fireplace wall create a warm and inviting atmosphere. Full-length louvered wood shutters frame the picture windows, offering views of the front courtyard, while a wall of windows and sliding glass doors at the back of the living room open to an enclosed patio. This space, featuring wood-beam ceilings, dual-pane windows, a ceiling fan, and two doors to the backyard, is ideal for enjoying the indoor-outdoor lifestyle. The dining area flows seamlessly into the kitchen, boasting period-specific custom-tiled countertops, modern wood cabinets, a double oven, a 5-burner Samsung gas cooktop, an oven hood, and a solar tube light alongside track spotlights. The first floor also includes an updated bathroom with tile flooring, a single sink vanity, recessed lighting, and a tiled shower stall. The bedrooms on this level offer Eichler-esque windows and large picture windows with canyon views. The primary suite on this floor is a true retreat with access to the enclosed patio, a charming corner built-in cabinet, and a vanity area leading to a full bathroom with period-specific tile and fixtures. Ascending the stairs, you'll find an additional primary suite featuring three closets, a separate mini-split air conditioning system, Bahama shutters, a small dressing area, and an ensuite bathroom with a shower/tub combination. Outside, the backyard is an entertainer's paradise, with two separate patio areas, an enclosed patio, a flagstone patio with a covered pergola, and a fully terraced hillside complete with fruit trees, grapes, and tranquil spots to relax and enjoy the cool breeze. The property also includes an attached 2-car garage with a laundry area and additional storage. Don't miss the chance to own this mid-century masterpiece in the hills of Monrovia!
