Description
Welcome to this rare opportunity in one of Covina's quiet, established neighborhoods. Well loved by its original owners, this home is being offered for sale for the first time in 62 years. Featuring 4 bedrooms, 2.5 bathrooms, and 2,042 square feet of living space on an expansive 10,237-square-foot lot, this mid-century home is filled with timeless character and endless potential. The inviting Great Room showcases walls of windows overlooking the patio and spacious backyard, recessed lighting, and a convenient dry bar—perfect for entertaining. The separate living room offers a cozy fireplace, while the kitchen includes a spacious breakfast area. A classic Hollywood-style bathroom with skylights provides access from two bedrooms, adding both charm and functionality. Recent improvements include a newer roof, HVAC system installed in 2021, copper repipe completed in 2022, a new 200-amp electrical panel installed in 2026, and a new fence in the rear of the property. New carpet has also been installed in the living room and breakfast area. The home presents an exceptional opportunity for buyers looking to update and customize to their own style. Outside, the oversized backyard is a blank canvas ready for your dream landscape, pool, or outdoor living space. The generous front yard offers potential RV parking, and the large lot may provide possibilities for an ADU (buyer to verify with the City). Ideally tucked away in a peaceful neighborhood while remaining conveniently close to transportation, shopping, and highly regarded schools, this is a chance to create your dream home in a location that rarely becomes available.
