Tucked against the foothills of the San Gabriel Mountains, Duarte offers a small-community feel with parks, recreation, shopping and neighboring Old Town Monrovia all close by. Inside, thoughtful updates have already been made to make settling in a little easier. Beautifully refinished original hardwood floors preserve the home's character, while fresh interior and exterior paint, recessed lighting and an updated kitchen give the home a fresh, comfortable feel. It's a place where you can move in, get comfortable and start enjoying it now while still having the freedom to make it your own over time. Out back, you'll find something you can't create overnight: mature fruit trees producing pomegranate, fig, citrus, avocado, peach and kumquat. Beyond the trees, the backyard is an open canvas with plenty of opportunity to create your own outdoor space whether that's a garden, entertaining area, play space or simply somewhere to relax. And don't overlook the location. The Duarte Recreational Trail is just up the street for morning walks, bike rides or an evening outdoors. The Duarte Community Center and community recreation are just a few blocks away, while everyday conveniences including Target, Grocery Outlet and a drive-through Starbucks are nearby. Head approximately two miles west and you're in Old Town Monrovia, with its restaurants, shops and popular Friday farmers market. Come discover a little more of Duarte.
