Award-winning Arcadia Schools! Offered for the first time since 1967, this cherished family home is nestled on a quiet, tree-lined street in one of Temple City's most desirable neighborhoods. Lovingly maintained by the same family for nearly 60 years, the property welcomes you with exceptional curb appeal and a charming front porch. Beyond its timeless appeal, many of the home's most important systems have already been upgraded. Major improvements completed within the last five years include a new roofing system on both the house and garage featuring a Solar Skin thermal barrier, updated electrical service with a 200-amp panel, a new Amana HVAC system with all-new ductwork, extensive interior plumbing upgrades and re-piping, and a Noritz outdoor tankless water heater. The detached garage offers abundant storage, including locking cabinets and organized workspace areas, with additional storage provided by a newer shed. The kitchen combines classic design with thoughtful updates, featuring maple cabinetry, soapstone countertops, a farmhouse sink, pull-out storage, and soft-close drawers and doors. In 2025, the cabinetry was professionally refinished, the interior repainted, and new appliances installed. Additional highlights include an expanded pantry and laundry area, replacement windows in the main living areas, a functional floor plan, and convenient rear alley access to the detached garage. A spacious covered patio extends the living space outdoors, creating an inviting setting for entertaining, dining, or relaxing year-round. The backyard offers plenty of room for gardening, recreation and future customization. Just moments away, Live Oak Park serves as one of Temple City's premier community destinations. Recently redeveloped and recognized with the California Park & Recreation Society's 2026 Park Planning Award of Excellence, the park features pickleball courts, walking paths, picnic areas, a community center, and an updated playground, while hosting many of the city's most beloved annual events. Whether you're a first-time buyer, growing family, or someone seeking a well-established neighborhood with top-rated schools and a strong sense of community, this is a rare opportunity to make this cherished home your own. Come create lasting memories, enjoy all that Temple City has to offer, and begin your next chapter in a neighborhood that generations have proudly called home.
