Property Description
Welcome to this bright and inviting 3-bedroom, 2-bath end-unit townhouse perfectly situated in one of Monterey Park's most desirable neighborhoods. This thoughtfully designed layout features a spacious primary suite on the first floor, offering added privacy away from the main living areas-perfect for multigenerational living, guests, or anyone who prefers easy ground-level access.
Upstairs, natural light pours in through large windows and newer skylights, illuminating the open and airy living room, dining area, and kitchen. The second floor also includes two bedrooms, a full bathroom, and access to a lovely balcony through the living room-a perfect spot to enjoy your morning coffee or unwind at sunset.
The home has been thoughtfully maintained over the years with numerous updates for comfort and peace of mind. A new HVAC system installed in 2017 still operates like new, ensuring year-round climate control. A new skylight was replaced in 2019. New flooring was added in 2020, followed by a serviced electrical panel in 2021. In 2024, the property received several major improvements, including roof repairs, new rain gutters, a new garage door, and a new garbage disposal. To complete the refreshed look, the interior has been recently repainted. The attached 2-car garage provides direct access to the home and convenient in-garage laundry.
Located in a prime and highly convenient area, this home sits between the 10 and 60 freeways, making commutes to Downtown Los Angeles, Pasadena, Alhambra, and surrounding cities a breeze. You're just minutes from an array of amenities, including popular malls, local shops, supermarkets, diverse restaurants, movie theaters, multiple parks, scenic hiking trails, and award-winning schools. For everyday convenience, the public library and City Hall are close by as well.
With its desirable layout, modern upgrades, abundant natural light, and unbeatable location, this Monterey Park end-unit townhome is a rare opportunity you won't want to miss.
