Colorado Blvd., built in 1911 by esteemed builder Charles Cramlett, is a Monrovia Historic Landmark #97, blending timeless Craftsman charm with modern upgrades. Enrolled in the Mills Act Program, it offers significant tax savings to the owner. The home has been meticulously restored, preserving original features such as handcrafted window moldings, wavy glass, period hardwood floors, classic exterior siding, picture frame molding, and the iconic "pig's foot" bathtub. Well-maintained bathroom tilework & fixtures further enhance its historic appeal, while spacious bedrooms provide warmth & character.
