Step into a piece of Monrovia's history with this adorable Colonial bungalow, distinguished by its unique Prairie style influences. Built in 1925 by John Henry Barton, who crafted 26 houses and a bungalow court in the area, this home beautifully merges period character with modern amenities. The exterior of this residence stands out with its distinctive features. The Tuscan columns and symmetrical design evoke the Colonial Revival style, while the hipped roof, generous overhanging eaves, and rafter tails add a touch of Prairie elegance. The dash coat stucco, though unusual for its time, contributes a unique charm that complements the architectural style. A drought-tolerant front garden welcomes you to a cozy covered porch, where you can relax and enjoy the surroundings. Enter through the period screen door and original wood entry door to experience the character within. Inside, the living room is a testament to classic charm with its dark stained hardwood floors, decorative fireplace adorned with a mantle, and built-in side bookshelves and sidelights. High baseboards and picture frame moldings add a touch of sophistication, while a ceiling fan ensures comfort. Adjacent to the living room, the breakfast room features built-in corner china cabinets, perfect for displaying your finest wares. The kitchen retains period-appropriate cabinetry with burnished bronze hardware and includes modern updates such as stainless-steel appliances, quartz countertops, and a ceramic tile backsplash with a stylish ribbon accent. The large farmhouse sink with original chrome fixtures and linoleum flooring blend vintage appeal with contemporary functionality. The home offers two bedrooms off the central hallway. Both bedrooms showcase dark oak hardwood flooring, picture frame molding, and ceiling fans. These rooms share a full bath that includes a shower/tub combo with ceramic tile surround, wood vanity, original medicine chest, and vinyl flooring. The expansive back yard with mature landscaping, a shed, and gated driveway enhance the property's appeal and functionality. Additional amenities include earthquake retrofitting, central air and heat, an individual laundry room, and a one-car detached garage with a barn door. With its blend of historic charm and modern upgrades, this bungalow may also qualify for landmarking with the City of Monrovia, adding to its value and prestige. Experience the unique charm of this sweet home where historic elegance meets contemporary comfort.
