Located within the highly sought-after Alhambra Unified School District, this pool home tucked into a quiet cul-de-sac sits on an expansive 8,266 sq ft corner lot, offering a rare blend of space, character, and lifestyle in the heart of Monterey Park. This 3-bedroom, 2-bath residence features a sunken living room filled with natural light and highlighted by a pitched wood-beamed ceiling — a warm and inviting focal point. The dining area flows seamlessly within the living space, creating an open setting for everyday living or entertaining. Upgraded carpet in the living room adds comfort, while portions of the home feature laminate flooring. Bedrooms are carpeted, providing a cozy retreat. The galley kitchen includes a charming breakfast nook for casual dining, and central air and heat provide year-round comfort. The hallway offers abundant built-in storage, adding everyday functionality, while the bathrooms include cabinetry for additional storage and organization. The backyard is where this home truly shines. Positioned on a corner lot within the cul-de-sac, the outdoor space is impressively spacious — featuring a refreshing pool, a basketball hoop area with room to shoot and play, and plenty of open space to relax or gather. The pool motor has recently been replaced for added peace of mind. Close to shopping, restaurants, parks, and convenient access to the 60, 10, and 710 freeways.
