Welcome to the newly renovated mid-century residence nestled in a premier Monterey Park neighborhood within the highly regarded Alhambra Unified School District.
The home has fresh paint inside and out, new Pergo flooring, new light fixtures, ceiling fan, recessed lighting, mirror closet doors and crown molding throughout. The heart of the home is the expansive living and dining area, where large windows frame peaceful views of the mountain, neighborhood and private backyard ideal for hosting friends, or even setting up a cozy home office.
The open and airy kitchen offers a charming breakfast nook, views, refurbished cabinets with ample storage, and new stainless steel appliances including a dedicated beverage cooler.
The tastefully updated bathrooms have modern fixtures, tile flooring, double vanity, tub/shower with ceiling-height tiling and new frameless glass shower door.
Step outside into your own private oasis, where a landscaped patio and backyard await. The grounds feature a new automatic irrigation system that supports year-round blooming roses, vibrant floral displays, and a mature citrus grove with mandarin, orange, and lemon trees.
You're close to the 5, 10, 60 and 710 freeways, making it super easy to get wherever you need to go in L. A. You are truly in the heart of it all—just minutes from premier shopping, fine dining, local parks, public gatherings and entertainments. It’s a rare find that combines a stellar location with a view that feels like a private retreat!
