Description

Located in Sherman Oaks! Pass the privacy hedge and tall shady trees to visit the main house and supplemental dwelling on one sprawling grassy green corner lot. Accented with natural wood finishes, the original (main) home built in 1942 has 3 beds + 1.5 baths, a brick fireplace, efficient galley style kitchen with granite counters and SS appliances. The dining room has a built-in wine rack, the living room offers a beam ceiling and brick fireplace with raised hearth plus a wall of French doors overlooking the patio. One bedroom has peaceful views across the private and fenced yard. Bonus space adjacent to the kitchen makes for an excellent office with its built-in file cabinets.
The second supplemental dwelling with its separate private entrance was permitted and built in 2006 as a “Rec Room”, it sits atop the oversized two car garages and is set up as a great room + office + full bath. High ceilings and bay windows welcome the light, a gas fireplace keeps you cozy during the winter. Granite countertops with island and breakfast bar make serving and entertaining easy; double sink, refrigerator, stackable washer & dryer included! This structure is NOT a legal rental unit, it would make a great and private office away from the house or wonderful extended family/ visitor’s quarters. For the ADU ambitious, you may want to consider and investigate the possibility of converting this space into an ADU.
The main house is 1,419 sqft, the “Rec Room” is 957 sqft for a total and flexible living space of 2,376 sqft. Each structure has its own private entrance, yard and patio!
Other perks include tankless water heaters. Central HVAC, and an abundance of storage cabinets and shelves in the garage. The stamped concrete driveway allows for ample off-street parking. Parents will appreciate being located within the Kester Ave Elementary School boundaries!
While it is move-in-perfect, this home is being sold by a Trust, it MUST be sold “as is”. What you see is what you get!
Convenient to the Cheesecake Factory/ Sherman Oaks Galleria, many wining and dining options along Ventura Blvd, highways 101 & 405, and all the bargains at nearby Costco. When you are not scurrying about, take some time to enjoy the many recreational activities at beautiful lake Balboa.
