About this home
In the heart of Monrovia, welcome to multi-generational living at its finest. Set on a rare tree-lined cul-de-sac, this charming 1911 residence blends timeless appeal with modern versatility.
The main living areas showcase warm hardwood floors, wide cased openings, and coffered ceiling details that frame the space with stunning craftsmanship. A formal dining room is anchored by classic wainscoting and a striking built-in buffet, creating a beautiful setting for both everyday living and special holidays.
Just beyond, the kitchen continues the home’s balance of character and function, featuring crisp white cabinetry, upgraded stainless steel appliances, and a Cosmo professional-style range with custom hood. Natural stone flooring flows into the sunlit breakfast nook, offering a warm and inviting space for morning coffee, casual meals, and views of the surrounding greenery.
The downstairs layout includes three bedrooms, including a generous primary suite complete with direct backyard access. Two remodeled bathrooms serve this main level with new white shaker-style vanities, stone counters and matte black accents.
Upstairs is where the home truly reveals its possibilities. Ascend to a private second-level retreat that lives nearly like its own apartment-style space, complete with a spacious bedroom, private bathroom, oversized closet, and dedicated kitchenette. A roof-adjacent outdoor perch adds a little bit of nostalgia, offering a classic treetop moment that feels tucked away from the rest of the home. With a separate exterior entry, this level is ideal for multi-generational living, long-term guests, or a private work-from-home suite. Stay close while still enjoying privacy and independence.
Outdoor living is a breeze in the private, fully gated backyard framed by mature Italian cypress, towering pine, and a fruiting tangerine tree that adds a sweet Southern California touch. With brick hardscape, patio areas, and open lawn, the space invites everything from easy entertaining to quiet mornings in the sun.
And just when the property feels complete, it reveals another layer: rear access from Chestnut Avenue. Enter through these rear gates to find a bonus freestanding structure offering valuable flex space.
This is the kind of property that meets you where you are and grows with where you are going. If you can dream it, you can see it here. Come see 517 King Street today....
