House Description

A rare opportunity to restore and reimagine this 1950s Mid-Century residence high in the desirable hills of North Monrovia. Attention builders and investors, this expansive lot offers approximately 120 feet of frontage and a depth of up to 150 feet. The home features 2 bedrooms, 2 bathrooms, and approximately 1,374 square feet on a 22,361 square foot lot (all measurements per Assessor), along with a detached 2-car garage. Inside, the spacious living room is highlighted by a dramatic exposed beam ceiling, fireplace, and expansive picture window that frames views of the surrounding greenery while filling the home with natural light. The warm architectural details create a distinctive Mid-Century ambiance rarely found today. Mature trees enhance the property's private setting, while the expansive backyard captures beautiful mountain views. The functional floor plan and generous lot size create an exceptional opportunity to renovate, expand, add an ADU (subject to applicable regulations), or explore other development possibilities. The detached garage with rooftop deck provides additional flexibility for outdoor entertaining, future improvements, or potential conversion opportunities. Ideally situated near Canyon Park and popular local hiking destinations including the Clamshell Trail and Sunset Bench, this property offers a unique opportunity to create something special in one of Monrovia's most sought-after hillside neighborhoods.
