    What's special

    Welcome to 438 W Duarte Rd, Monrovia, a spacious and distinctive Single-story 1927 Spanish-style residence offering approximately 2,078 sq ft of living space with 4 bedrooms and 2.5 bathrooms. This home is the magnificent result of the City of Monrovia’s efforts to preserve and restore the history of this architecturally significant home. Blending classic architectural character with thoughtful updates, this home offers generous room sizes, abundant natural light, and a comfortable, functional floor plan. Step inside to find a bright and inviting living area highlighted by the charm and character of an earlier architectural era. The well-proportioned interior provides multiple spaces for everyday living, dining, entertaining, or working from home. The kitchen features rich wood cabinetry, ample counter and storage space, stainless-steel appliances, a gas cooktop, tiled flooring, and a convenient breakfast nook for casual dining. The four bedrooms provide flexibility for sleeping quarters, guest space, an office, or hobby room, while the two bathrooms complement the home's practical layout. Large windows throughout bring in excellent natural light and enhance the home's warm, open atmosphere. The property also underwent a seismic retrofit in 2023, providing added reinforcement and earthquake-related structural improvements. The home has been well maintained while preserving the unique character associated with its 1920s Spanish-style design. Ideally situated in Monrovia, the property conveniently located near local shopping, dining, parks, transportation, and the many amenities the surrounding San Gabriel Valley has to offer. With its generous 2,078 sq ft layout, four bedrooms, architectural charm, and combination of vintage character and modern functionality, 438 W Duarte Rd presents a rare opportunity for buyers looking for space and individuality in Monrovia.
