About this House

THE URBAN OASIS

 A RARE MUST SEE!!! So often we assume we can’t have a slice of nostalgic ranch style living when we own homes in the city, but this garden lover's paradise proves you can have your cake and eat it too. This beautiful urban homestead property features tons of mature and exotic fruit trees, as well as two raised garden beds for growing your own herbs and vegetables, in addition to a built in chicken coop and custom composting pile. It’s a 3 bed, 2 bath pool home that includes a converted/insulated garage that’s been used as an office/workout studio, which also has an additionally approved attached 300 sq. ft. storage room that can easily be converted into a studio sized guest house or rental.
With an electric driveway gate, the tall, modern style fence offers tons of privacy and plenty of parking. The backyard has a pool, patio and outdoor grill/bar for entertaining! Enjoy keeping clutter out of the main area of your home with a converted sun room turned full laundry room as well as a large custom walk-in closet near the master bedroom…and did we mention the newly remodeled modern kitchen?! Don’t worry though, even with all the upgrades and built-ins, the previous owners have still maintained it’s 1940’s style charm with character filled touches like the original hardwood floors, for a tasteful blend of cottage core and clean modern lines.
This home’s innovation of space shows you can feel what it’s like to live a more natural Mediterranean Villa lifestyle and still be close to the city/entertainment industry. Located next to the Van Nuys Flyaway and the 405 fwy., travelling will always be exceptionally easy, all while allowing quick access to the exciting conveniences that the San Fernando Valley is known for, with their amazing restaurants/shopping and a quick 20-40 min drive to beaches! This could be the perfect starter home for a young couple or anyone of any age looking to experience this lifestyle! Act fast! This unique one-of-a-kind gem will NOT be on the market long!!!
