Description

Charming corner lot home situated in friendly, highly-desirable, tree-lined Lake Balboa neighborhood. Proud owners lovingly maintain this home and curb appeal is the first of many things you'll love. In the front yard, gorgeous drought-tolerant landscaping w/drip irrigation recently completed. Upon entering the home you're greeted with a bright view through the expansive living room to the backyard. The kitchen has been beautifully updated, and just steps away from an equally lovely laundry room with ample storage. Kitchen has space for casual meals and your morning coffee. If you enjoy entertaining large groups, the kitchen opens to a large formal dining room featuring a raised, brick fireplace. Around the corner is the spacious living area with charming stone fireplace. The 3 bedrooms have mirrored closet doors & ceiling fans. Along with the attached 2-car garage, there is potential for 3 cars to park side-by-side, and a gate which opens to the backyard could fit a boat or RV. Other notable features include fully paid-off solar panels which help to reduce energy costs. Soft-close drawers in the kitchen & laundry room, all dual-pane windows, copper plumbing, large backyard w/ covered patio & auto sprinklers. Nearby access to 405 and 101 FWYs, Orange Line, Metro and Commuter bus stops, as well as multiple schools. Please note: there was a recent permitted addition which increased the sq. ft. from 1,640 to 1,902, but has not yet been recorded in the city records.
