Located in the Highlands of Monterey Park, this mid-century gem seamlessly blends the original exposed fieldstone fireplace with tasteful updates throughout. With unobstructed 180 degree views of downtown, the Hollywood Sign, San Gabriel mountains and Pasadena to the north, this 10,862 square foot lot has the potential to dramatically increase in value -- it's truly a view you have to see to appreciate. Beyond the incredible views (BEST fireworks view in the City!), this is a true turnkey property with many recent updates to the living room, floors, kitchen, bathrooms, hallways, landscaping, new HVAC system, newer windows, 7 yr old roof, new Alexa-integrated security system with cameras, smart light switches and an incredible custom garage (wired for 240 volt charger) for anyone who loves their vehicles. Highly rated schools within walking distance, beautiful nearby trails and parks, including one for neighborhood dogs, and an optional membership in the par 3 golf course just down the street. 5-10 minutes to Keck Medical Center and Cal St. LA, 10-15 minutes to either Old Town Pasadena or Downtown LA, with easy access to the 710 and 10. With a lot that's big enough to add a pool or build onto the current house, combined with one of the best locations in all of Monterey Park, this property should see exceptional appreciation.
