227 N. Myrtle Avenue is a stunning Vintage Craftsman built in 1908, the same year Monrovia's first library was built. Lovely shingle siding, a deep wrap around porch, massive beams, and rockwork decoration enhance the exterior while inside, period details such as the high ceilings, beefy baseboards & crown moldings, board and batten trim, as well as a massive, functioning pocket door are the stars. Downstairs, there is a gracious living room with decorative fireplace, a very large dining room with window seat and two walls of built-ins, a study with a wall of north facing windows, a kitchen, laundry room, powder room, as well as a separate two-room suite with a bathroom. Newer paint and recently refinished hardwood floors throughout. There are two staircases, one in the front entry, & one in the rear of the house leading up to a large south facing sleeping porch. Upstairs are 4 bedrooms, office, 2 additional bathrooms, & a large bonus room that could happily function as an art studio, a dance or exercise space, a playroom...the possibilities are endless in this very large home. A two car garage, mature & producing avocado tree, mature drought tolerant garden, are plusses. Check with the City of Monrovia for Historical Designation & Mills Act potential.
