Welcome Home! This gorgeous two-story single-family home is ideally situated in a prime neighborhood, tucked behind a wrought-iron fence that adds elegance and privacy. A stately front porch, framed by two charming arches, leads you to the welcoming entryway. The home features four bedrooms and three full bathrooms, with a fresh interior and exterior paint job. Three bedrooms are located upstairs, including a spacious primary suite with its own full bathroom and a sunny private balcony.

The bright and airy living room is centered around a cozy gas fireplace, creating a warm and inviting ambiance. A formal dining room sits adjacent to the fully equipped kitchen, which boasts granite countertops and a bay window that fills the space with natural light. Just beyond the dining area, a large balcony provides the perfect setting for outdoor entertaining or peaceful morning coffee. Throughout the home, rich wood flooring adds warmth and sophistication.

The city's lively commercial districts along Atlantic Boulevard and Garvey Avenue are celebrated for their world-class Asian cuisine, bustling local markets, boutique shops, and salons.

The community comes together throughout the year for popular events such as the Lunar New Year Festival, Cherry Blossom Festival, Geranium Festival, and Cinco de Mayo Celebration. Its central location offers quick access to Downtown Los Angeles, Santa Monica, and the San Fernando Valley, with convenient travel options via Hollywood Burbank( Bob Hope), Ontario International, and LAX airports. Monterey Park is also known for its top-rated public schools and a strong sense of safety, thanks to excellent police and fire services.
