Description
Welcome to this charming single-story North Duarte home, ideally situated at the base of the San Gabriel Mountains on a private cul-de-sac with only one neighboring property. Set on an expansive 11,685 sq ft lot, this 3-bedroom, 2-bath residence offers 1,577 sq ft of living space, peaceful surroundings, and an exceptional opportunity to create your dream home in one of Duarte’s most desirable foothill neighborhoods. Natural light pours through generously sized windows, filling the home with warmth and creating an inviting atmosphere throughout. The thoughtful floor plan offers spacious living areas including a welcoming living room with fireplace, neighborhood views, and front-row seats to local Fourth of July celebrations. Sliding glass doors open to the front patio for seamless indoor-outdoor enjoyment. The family room, part sunroom and complete with a second fireplace, creates a comfortable retreat for relaxing or gathering. Generously sized bedrooms provide comfort and flexibility, while the private primary suite features direct backyard access through sliding glass doors and its own ensuite bathroom. The kitchen retains its original character with abundant cabinetry, tile countertops, and a practical layout that can be enjoyed today or personalized over time. Flowing naturally into the dining and family rooms, the layout makes everyday living and entertaining effortless. Lovingly maintained over the years, the home benefits from replaced HVAC, tankless water heater, attic reinsulation and new ducting, garage door opener replacement, and roof maintenance and repairs completed in 2024. The home also features copper plumbing throughout, complementing its solid infrastructure. Outside, the large flat backyard with gazebo offers endless possibilities for gardening, entertaining, play, or a private outdoor retreat. The attached two-car garage with direct home access adds convenience, while the cul-de-sac location provides minimal through traffic and a quiet neighborhood feel. Combining location, privacy, views, and upside potential, this is a rare opportunity to personalize a well-cared-for home and enjoy the foothill lifestyle. Just minutes from Royal Oaks Park and the Duarte Bike Trail, hiking, cycling, and mountain air are within easy reach.
