About this House

Located on a large, desirable corner lot in one of Lake Balboa's most sought-after pockets, this beautifully maintained home offers outstanding curb appeal with mature rose bushes and a classic ranch-style wood fence. Inside, a warm and welcoming entry features elegant wainscoting, leading to a thoughtfully updated kitchen with quartz countertops, Thermador and Samsung stainless steel appliances, and custom solid wood cabinetry. The spacious living and dining area showcases pristine original hardwood floors, a cozy fireplace, and sliding glass doors that open to a tranquil backyard retreat. The oversized primary bedroom offers a serene escape, while two additional secondary bedrooms, one with an en-suite half bath, provide comfort and versatility. Both bathrooms have been tastefully renovated. Perfect for entertaining, the enchanting backyard includes a covered patio, jacuzzi, expansive decking, BBQ island, and a gazebo. A detached two-car garage, ideally situated on the lot, presents excellent ADU potential (buyer to verify). Most systems in the home have been recently updated, adding to its long-term value. The roof is less than five years old, the AC unit is 2-3 years old, and the electrical panel is brand new. This property is Encino-adjacent and moments from Lake Balboa Park, the Sepulveda Basin Dog Park, Japanese Gardens, and the Encino Farmers Market, with easy access to the 101 and 405 freeways, this home is a true pride-of-ownership gem and is sure to be the envy of the neighborhood.
