Property details
About 551 W Walnut Ave
Excellent opportunity to own a cute character home with mountain views. The backyard has plenty of space to add an ADU. Located on a quiet street and walking distance to Old Town Monrovia and the Huntington Oaks Center, this home is centrally located with easy access to the 210 freeway. The property boasts original hardwood floors with an upgraded kitchen with quartz countertops, newer kitchen flooring, and newer cabinets. My favorite part of the home is the primary suite with a barn door bookshelf for the walk in closet, plus the updated en suite bathroom. The spacious living room will accommodate any of your entertainment needs and has a fireplace with beautiful tiles of Ernest A. Batchelder. The back yard is large enough to host a small party, possibly add an ADU, and has a swim in place pool that is also a spa, which costs about $35,000. The pool can also be lowered so that it is flush with the ground. Beyond that, in 2018 the sellers updated: roof, tankless water heater, new HVAC, and the primary and en suite were updated with new electrical and plumbing in 2021. Currently, there is a Tuff Shed with finished walls and electricity with another bonus storage shed. The driveway is long and deep, so it can possibly accommodate an RV. Plenty of space to store your personal items as the Attic has a dropdown ladder for additional storage. Please see attached supplements for: Seller disclosures and preliminary title report. Nobody passed away on the property.
