About this House

What's unique:Dramatic double-sided brick fireplaceIn-ground poolGated propertyOriginal hardwood floorsLarge drivewayDiamond-pane window
OFFER DEADLINE: TUESDAY 9/1 12 PM (NOON)

Calling all renovators and midcentury enthusiasts: this character-rich 1956 Birdhouse Ranch reflects many of the hallmark details associated with William Mellenthin’s celebrated San Fernando Valley homes, along with the kind of original character that makes a thoughtful restoration especially rewarding.

Located in Reseda, the home offers approximately 1,788 square feet with 2 bedrooms, 2 baths, and a versatile bonus room with a closet, all on a 6,755-square-foot lot. The large bonus room offers flexibility for an office, den, studio, hobby room, or other use.

Step inside to find original hardwood floors, extensive wood paneling and detailing, a dramatic double-sided brick fireplace, a diamond-pane window, and other period touches, providing a compelling foundation for renovation.
Outside, the gated property includes a large driveway, an attached 2-car direct-access garage with built-ins, an in-ground pool, and multiple mature fruit trees (citrus, fig, and more). A signature birdhouse/dovecote detail is prominently featured above the garage.

Ready for extensive renovation, this is an exciting opportunity for a builder, investor, or owner-occupant to bring their vision and breathe new life into a home with real personality and value-add potential.

Ideally situated approximately 10 minutes from Lake Balboa Park and its extensive recreational amenities, with convenient access to major Valley freeways.

There’s an annual artwalk and a quaint Southeast Asian community in the center: a handful of excellent Vietnamese and Thai restaurants and retail establishments. It’s mostly comprised of single-family housing, but quite a few apartments and condominiums have popped up in the last 10 years. Needless to say it’s quite a diverse and well-planned neighborhood."
