    What's special

    Founded in 1913 by a small group of ranchers that included Henry E Huntington and George S Patton (Gen Patton's Father), the city of San Marino is world renowned for not only its public school system (#1 ranked in CA 18 of last 20 years) but also for its residents: from US Attorney Generals and Fortune 500 CEO's to Nobel Laureates and California Governors...even Edwin Hubble has called San Marino home. The stately mansions and manicured parks and libraries make San Marino one of the most desirable small cities in California. 1540 Garfield Avenue is an inviting opportunity to call San Marino home. Budget conscious, 1540 Garfield has all the characteristic of a notable traditional home. The smart floorplan allows for sleeping and quiet on one side and entertaining and congregating on the other. The large family room in front of the house leads to dining and kitchen, allowing for a convenient floorplan and flow. The enclosed grassy yard with citrus trees and large rear patio extends the home for secure outdoor dining, recreation and entertaining. Attached to the garage, a 200 sf bonus room, currently being used as an office, can be individually tailored to the needs of the next owner. In all, 1540 Garfield Avenue, being one level, has the versatility to be a step down, starter, next chapter or dream home in a city that not only offers elite schools and facilities, but also has dedicated fire and police departments allowing for response times in the 90% for Los Angeles County. An exciting opportunity to become part of the welcoming San Marino community. *Listing agents will offer the new owner a one-year, non-reoccurring, Sustaining Gift Membership to the Huntington Library and Gardens. Features: *Detached 2-car garage w/attached bonus room *Hardwood flooring *Bose speaker system *Gated driveway *Copper plumbing *Central air/heat *Built in 1949
