Description

Welcome to your dream home in the heart of Valley Glen, one of the most charming and sought-after neighborhoods in the South San Fernando Valley. This beautifully updated corner lot 4-bedroom, 3-bathroom single-family residence effortlessly blends modern upgrades with warm, inviting character—creating a home that's equal parts stylish and functional.
From the moment you arrive, you're greeted by a striking brand-new front door and a fresh roof outfitted with energy-efficient solar panels, setting the tone for the thoughtful upgrades that continue throughout the property. Step inside to discover recessed lighting that brightens every corner of the spacious open-concept areas and light-filled interior with wood flooring throughout. The layout is perfect for both entertaining and everyday comfort.
A true highlight is the converted garage AKA the bonus room with mirrored closet doors and an additonal storage room within the bonus room! It's a must see. The bonus room makes the property a 5 bedroom house, accessible via its own private entrance. Whether you’re envisioning a gym, music or art studio, home office, guest suite, or cozy den, this bonus space gives you endless options for customization.
The kitchen is completely renovated, featuring sleek cabinetry, quartz countertops, and stainless steel appliances that make cooking a joy. All three bathrooms have been tastefully remodeled with contemporary finishes, giving each space a fresh, spa-like feel. Every room is light-filled and welcoming, offering both space and versatility for growing households, work-from-home professionals, or multi-generational living.
Step outside into your private oasis where mature **fruit trees—orange, grapefruit, and pomegranate—**line the yard, adding both beauty and bounty to your everyday life. There’s plenty of space to relax, garden, or entertain in the peaceful backyard.
With upgrades like new plumbing, electrical, and energy-saving features, this home offers peace of mind alongside its stunning design. Ideally located near Ventura Blvd shops, restaurants, parks, and convenient freeway access, you’ll love the sense of community and the lifestyle Valley Glen provides.
This is more than a home—it’s a fresh start, a smart investment, and a special place to make memories for years to come.
