Welcome to the very special Alhambra neighborhood of Midwick Park! Perched on a knoll with a wonderful view of predominantly 1930s homes and Monterey Park hills, this classic, beautifully designed traditional home was thoughtfully built and lovingly cared for by the same family for the past 88 years. Upon entering, the carved diamond pattern in the oak floors formally greets visitors through an archway into a spacious and bright, step-down living room, complete with elegant fireplace, bay window, peg and groove style hardwood floors, and a gentle barrel-vaulted ceiling. Through another archway, the formal dining room has a lovely stained-glass window leading to a cozy, sunken den, bathed in light, which at one time, was used as a bedroom due to its spacious closet while the family was growing. A swinging door separates the dining room and kitchen, of which the centerpiece is a fabulous O'Keefe and Merritt stove, not to mention a large garden window. Truly the best room in the house is the sunny breakfast room with built-in corner cabinets, and a wonderful view of the vibrant neighborhood below with passersby enjoying their daily strolls. Two spacious bedrooms share a full bathroom with vintage tile, tub, and a separate arched shower stall. The service porch off the kitchen has a half-bathroom, laundry area, and ample storage. Unique to this home are two enormous strawberry trees (one in front and back) and a backyard lemon tree, flanked by a lovely gazebo with privacy hedges and rose garden along the wall enclosing the backyard. The two-car garage and driveway sit at the back of the property, enabling full use of the backyard. While this home provides easy access to Cal State LA, the 10 & 710 freeways, and nearby shops, it is also located in a very special, quiet enclave in which many neighbors know one another and stay for decades.

As a licensed real estate brokerage, Estately has access to the same database professional Realtors use: the Multiple Listing Service (or MLS). That means we can display all the properties listed by other member brokerages of the local Association of Realtors—unless the seller has requested that the listing not be published or marketed online.
The MLS is widely considered to be the most authoritative, up-to-date, accurate, and complete source of real estate for-sale in the USA.
Estately updates this data as quickly as possible and shares as much information with our users as allowed by local rules. Estately can also email you updates when new homes come on the market that match your search, change price, or go under contract.
