Located in the desirable North Monrovia neighborhood, this three-bedroom, three-bathroom home provides a unique opportunity to live in one of the area's most sought-after locations. As you enter, you'll immediately notice the soaring ceilings, which create an airy, open feel throughout the main living area. The spacious living room seamlessly flows into the dining area, making it perfect for entertaining friends or relaxing after a busy day. Two bedrooms are tucked down the hall, along with a chic, updated bathroom featuring sleek modern finishes. The kitchen is a standout, designed for both function and style.

Designed for both relaxation and entertainment, the backyard is a true showstopper. Large concrete pavers guide you through the meticulously curated space, featuring a sparkling swimming pool and an outdoor kitchen with a built-in grill and bar top, plumbed for a potential future firepit. A studio room with a separate entrance from the backyard offers a versatile flex space, complete with a ductless heating/cooling system.
