Own one of the original 1887 “First Homes” of Monrovia. This estate home is situated on a half acre lot of beautiful manicured garden and a grove producing apples, citrus and avocados galore. The home was tastefully updated and authentically restored in 2012. This architecturally significant beauty takes you back in time as you step across the Antebellum-era wrap around porch into the grand-sized Victorian entry. Enjoy friends and family in the expansive formal living and dining rooms, with leaded glass picture window over-looking the manicured grounds. You will be amazed by the custom gourmet kitchen which is the center piece of this home. It was designed for the passionate chef, offering a large center island with every built-in, state of the art appliance a chef could desire, wine cooler, double oven and granite counter tops. From the corner breakfast nook one can view the entire backyard and enjoy the children playing in the sparkling, three fountain pool, or relaxing in the waterfall spa. The backyard boasts an outdoor kitchen, covered patio with fireplace, a ¾ bath, changing room and generous outdoor living areas and rolling lawns. The second floor offers 4 nice sized bedrooms with beautiful views of the grounds, the mountains and even the Pacific. The downstairs includes an In-Law suite and oak shaded shaded office. This historic family home is within walking distance of Old Town Monrovia and the coveted Mayflower Elementary School.
