Tucked behind mature trees and set well back from the street, this generously proportioned Midvale Estates property offers a sense of privacy and space that is increasingly hard to find. Set on an expansive 14,500 sq ft lot, the approx. 1,800 sq ft home features 3 bedrooms, 2 bathrooms and… Read More a flexible floor plan designed around both everyday living and entertaining. Inside, original solid hardwood floors and plaster walls with plentiful natural light creating a warm, inviting atmosphere with timeless character. The formal living room centers around a fireplace and large bay window overlooking the front grounds, with French doors leading into the formal dining room. The adjacent kitchen features ample wood cabinetry, a cozy breakfast area with custom built-in banquette seating and direct access to the rear patio. A separate laundry room provides convenience. One of the home's most versatile spaces is the expansive family room/den, where wood-beamed ceilings, extensive built-in storage around a large picture window overlooking the pool and backyard, and a sliding glass door to the patio create an especially inviting gathering space. Its generous size and layout also provide flexibility for use as a 4th bedroom, office or creative studio. The primary bedroom offers dual mirrored wardrobes and a full en-suite bathroom with jetted soaking tub and shower with secondary hallway access. A rear bedroom enjoys its own updated 3/4 en-suite bath with secondary hallway access directly across from the third bedroom, which opens directly to the rear patio. The backyard is equally compelling, with a large brick courtyard-style patio featuring a SunSetter motorized retractable awning and built-in BBQ, an expansive lawn area with custom playhouse offering storage or creative-use potential, and a sparkling in-ground pool framed by wraparound brick decking and additional yard space. Fully owned solar panels with Tesla batteries, tankless water heater, dual zoned A/C systems, and durable redwood construction add practical value. With its substantial lot, the property offers room for personalization and possible expansion. Close to local shopping and dining, Lake Balboa and the Sepulveda Basin's recreational amenities, with convenient access to the 405, 101 and 170 freeways, this is a distinctive opportunity to enjoy an unusually spacious property with character, flexibility and abundant outdoor living in the San Fernando Valley.
