Outstanding opportunity to acquire a free-standing commercial building on one of the most heavily traveled corridors in Monrovia, located directly on Foothill Boulevard. High visibility, strong daily traffic counts, and excellent street presence make this a strategic acquisition for both owner-users and investors. The property consists of approximately 2,312 SF of improvements situated on a 7,744 SF lot, offering a rare combination of functional building space and usable yard area. The structure features seven oversized interior bays, two 20-foot roll-up doors, and a vehicle lift. Existing infrastructure includes a high-capacity air compressor and waste oil storage tank, making it fully equipped for automotive or light industrial operations. What sets this property apart is the site layout. The front accommodates approximately 8 vehicles, while the rear provides parking for about 10 vehicles, including 6 covered spaces. Two 25-foot rear gates span approximately 50 feet across, providing secure access and excellent circulation. A long driveway runs the depth of the lot, allowing efficient flow for vehicles, deliveries, or equipment. Beyond its current automotive configuration, the site offers compelling adaptive reuse potential. The flexible interior bays, high roll-up doors, secure yard space, and strong frontage make it suitable for a wide range of uses such as contractor headquarters, fleet services, specialty fabrication, auto-related retail, detailing center, showroom with service component, storage-intensive businesses, or creative commercial conversion (Buyer to verify zoning and permitted uses with the City). Free-standing commercial properties with secure yard space and this level of street exposure are increasingly difficult to find in this submarket. Whether you are an owner-user seeking operational efficiency or an investor targeting a high-demand commercial corridor, this asset presents significant upside and long-term value.

Spanning four separate buildings, 137 and 147 N Myrtle Avenue, along with 146 and 148 Stedman Place, the property covers three separate parcels totaling a large 32,485 square foot, block-to-block area of land. Because the City of Monrovia does not have its own restrictive local rent control, the property benefits from higher allowable rent increases under California's statewide AB 1482. This may help a new owner to recapture the approximately 28% in rent upside more rapidly, leading to a more dramatic increase in future cash flow. Monrovia is also not subject to the expensive Measure ULA taxes that burden nearby Los Angeles, allowing investors to keep substantially more profits from building ownership. The buildings feature an excellent unit mix with mostly two-bedroom apartments throughout. Most of these units have already been upgraded to include varying combinations of remodeled bathrooms, updated kitchen appliances, new wood flooring, and, in select units, upgraded electrical panels and in-unit washer/dryers. The location grants tenants the convenience and walkability of more urban neighborhoods, as confirmed by its "Walker's Paradise" designation with a Walk Score of 92, along with the calm and comfort of a more suburban town. This is due largely to the property's location near the sought-after Old Town Monrovia business district, which runs along Myrtle Avenue just one block south of the property.
