Description

Discover a rare opportunity in the vibrant city of Monrovia, where tree-lined streets meet a lively mix of restaurants, coffee houses, and small-town charm. This traditional-style duplex features two separate homes on one spacious lot, making it ideal for investors or owner-occupants seeking flexibility and income potential. Each residence offers 2 bedrooms and 1 bath, thoughtfully designed for comfort and functionality. Situated on a generous 9,310 sq. ft. lot, the property presents exciting potential for future development. Both homes are separately metered for utilities (Not Including Water), and with both tenants currently on month-to-month leases, the possibilities are wide open—whether you choose to maintain steady rental income or occupy one unit while leasing the other. Perfectly located just minutes from Old Town Monrovia, top-rated schools, shopping centers, restaurants, entertainment, and the I-210 freeway, this property combines convenience, charm, and long-term value. Whether you’re expanding your investment portfolio or looking for a home that pays for itself, this Monrovia gem offers it all.
