THIS IS YOUR CHANCE TO OWN A TURNKEY PIECE OF SAN GABRIEL VALLEY HISTORY! The elegant historical entertainment home was built by the Burr family of Monrovia in 1894, the home has had only two-family owners in its 130-year history. Having been totally restored and rebuilt between 1979-1986 with new exterior walls, framing, plumbing, electrical, drywall and plaster – the home is much younger than its actual age while still retaining stunning era craftsmanship. The home has been the site of movie and television shoots and has a beautiful and elegant Queen Ann Victorian design.
The home features 7 bedrooms and 4.250 baths and a total of 4091 square feet (A) with a 14,545 square foot double lot and a very large 5 car parking garage. The garage includes a 572 square foot potential carriage house with plumbing and framed sub floor, this has many possibilities including potential ADU or home office. Recently, the home has been upgraded including a new gourmet era kitchen with custom cabinets and professional appliance package; the kitchen includes an updated pantry with prep station; restored bathrooms including refinished claw tubs and era accents. Many of the renovation pieces were purchased in England, including the porcelain wall mounted water closets.
The home has a large and private backyard with room for family, dogs and pool, the serenity with mature oaks and other tree species including a historical avocado/apple tree by Luther Burbank make this an area to escape and enjoy.
The foundation was seismically retrofitted in 2023. The home includes three gas burning fire places. Aside from its historical significance and grand architecture, at the heart, it's truly a turnkey family home, with modern comforts, while still holding true to its past. Walking distance to downtown Monrovia’s many boutique restaurants and shops! The home is registered with the City of Monrovia as a historical property and may be eligible for the Mills Act tax savings.
