149 Norumbega Drive Monrovia, CA 91016

Craftsman Gem in North Monrovia that checks every box! Remodeled from top to bottom without compromising the original architectural charm. A fenced yard and a wide front porch, formal entry, and wood railing staircase are the opening features. A living room with crown moldings, wood flooring, and french pocket doors to the great room. This is where the magic happens. A dining room next to the bay window and built-in banquet looks out to the side gardens and the main area with wainscoting and recessed lighting joins a spectacular remodeled open and spacious chef's kitchen. Wide and smooth countertops, a professional-grade range, plenty of cabinets, a breakfast bar, a nearby laundry closet, and an abundance of natural light.Out the back door, it feels like you have escaped to a mountain resort. A splendid entertaining redwood deck with built-in seating and space for a large grill. Surrounded by trees and nature and secret quiet spaces, there is even a fire pit for roasting s'mores. A 327 sqft recently constructed ADU with permits is off to the left. Very cool design that mimics the home's interior with wainscot walls, a farm sink in the bathroom, and a shower with an invisible glass wall. Endless possibilities for this room. Picture a music studio, art studio, home office, guest suite, in-law suite, home college student suite. Near the ADU is an oversized two-car garage with an extra deep extension and enters off of a quaint alley. One downstairs, main level bedroom, and three upstairs bedrooms. The primary bedroom suite has a dream bathroom with a ball & claw foot bathtub and a barn sliding door to the ultimate large closet. The two other bedrooms share a nicely remodeled bathroom. Close to Old Town Monrovia shops and restaurants and the Monrovia Library and Park. This is the Forever Home that showed up just in time.
