Located in the hills of North Monrovia, enjoy breathtaking views. This home is connected to the surrounding nature on one of the largest lots in the area with the best view on the ridge. Situated in a private and zen-like area of the canyon on a private easement road shared by just a handful of homes. Large, original windows in the living room offer sweeping mountain views. Each corner of the home offers peaceful living areas with newer updates throughout. From all around the home you can hear the breeze whistling through tree branches. Enjoy views from the pool, deck, living room, and back yard. Just a 5-minute drive down the hill to schools, shops, theaters, and the charming Monrovia Friday Night Street Fair. This is an incredible opportunity for anyone who wants add a little TLC and live with the beauty of this mountain range and for developers looking to build a dream home or customize the existing home on this incredibly rare parcel of land of just under 30,000 square feet. A hidden gem among million-dollar properties, this home is walking distance from the indigenous areas of Monrovia close to water falls, hiking trails and wildlife. Truly a one-of-a-kind property in a stunningly tranquil location.
