Sleepy Monrovia sits at the base of the foothills of the San Gabriel Mountains, and this cozy house really captures its quaint, small-town vibe.

A well-preserved fixer-upper, the two-bedroom, one-bathroom residence measures about 1,000 square feet.

Interiors feature some nice, vintage elements: built-in shelves, arched doorways, and coved ceilings. There’s also a welcome surprise: Under those carpets, there are hardwood floors throughout.

The dwelling also has central heating and air conditioning, plus “some newer windows.”

The house sits on a roughly 7,000-square-foot lot that includes a nice, shady front yard and a roomy backyard with minimal landscaping and a detached, two-car garage.

Located about a mile east of Monrovia’s main drag on Myrtle Avenue, this fixer is asking $600,000.
