Description
Perched at the peak of a quiet cul-de-sac in the highly desirable Monrovia foothills, this single-story ranch offers a rare combination of secluded privacy and breathtaking dual-perspective vistas. The premium lot is perfectly positioned to capture sweeping San Gabriel Mountain views from the front and panoramic valley views stretching to the downtown Los Angeles skyline from the back. Having recently received fresh interior and exterior paint throughout, the home presents a pristine "blank canvas" for the visionary buyer looking to curate a custom hillside retreat. Through the double-door entry, a dramatic sunken living room greets you. Designed to maximize volume and light, it flows naturally into a formal dining area perfectly scaled for entertaining. The heart of the home features a kitchen equipped with brand-new stainless steel appliances and a walk-in pantry, opening into a cozy family room anchored by a classic fireplace. The intelligently designed four-bedroom, single-level layout ensures a strong indoor-outdoor flow, with a dedicated "quiet wing" housing all accommodations. The primary suite serves as a true sanctuary, featuring a walk-in closet and a sliding glass door that opens directly to the backyard and spa, perfectly framing the twinkling city lights. While the interior awaits your personal design aesthetic, the exterior is the property’s undisputed crown jewel. The large lot offers significant privacy and is cooled by refreshing foothill breezes, creating an idyllic backdrop for the pool and spa. The pool deck is ideally positioned to capture spectacular sunset views, making it a premier setting for evening entertaining. Complete with a two-car garage, a dedicated utility room, and central climate control, this home offers an exceptional opportunity to realize the full potential of foothill living while remaining close to Old Town Monrovia, local hiking trails, and Monrovia Canyon Park.
