Description
Tucked away on a 10,992 square foot lot adjacent to Monrovia Canyon Park and the Hillside Wilderness Preserve, this unique 1952 home offers a rare opportunity to live surrounded by nature while still being just minutes from town. With majestic oak trees, lush landscaping, and incredible mountain and canyon views, the setting feels like a private retreat. The home features distinctive Japanese-inspired architectural details inside and out, including bamboo siding at the front of the home and sliding Shoji doors that open across floor-to-ceiling living room windows, bringing the outdoors in and filling the space with natural light. The living room also features a dramatic floor-to-ceiling brick fireplace and built-in floor-to-ceiling corner bookshelf and cabinet. A formal dining room with chandelier connects to the galley kitchen through a convenient breakfast bar. The kitchen includes vinyl flooring, electric range, and double sink. The family room is warm and inviting with angled wood siding, adding to the home’s architectural character. Outdoor living is a highlight of the property, with wrap-around wood decking designed to take full advantage of the peaceful setting and surrounding views. The property includes a two-car detached garage and offers direct access to hiking trails, the Canyon Park Nature Center, the waterfall, and Sunset Bench. The area is known for its natural beauty and wildlife — deer, bobcats, and even the occasional bear have been known to wander through, so consider this your very own nature channel, live and in person. If you’ve been looking for a home that feels like a mountain retreat, artist’s hideaway, or peaceful escape surrounded by nature, this special property offers a truly one-of-a-kind setting in beautiful Monrovia.
