Property Description
Located south of Ventura Boulevard and west of the 405 Freeway, this remarkable residence sits along the picturesque Strawberry-Adlon loop, a quiet, tree-lined street with minimal pass-through traffic. Nestled on a bluff surrounded by lush greenery and anchored by a towering redwood, the property offers a unique sense of privacy and tranquility. Within the highly rated Lanai Road Elementary School boundary, the home features 4 bedrooms, 3.5 bathrooms, and just over 2,900 sq ft of living space on a 19,200 sq ft lot, blending timeless character with thoughtful updates. Recent improvements include new fire-rated roof, exterior stucco, and vents, and all new interior paint. Natural light streams through diamond lattice windows, highlighting hardwood flooring throughout most of the home, brand-new tile in the kitchen and powder bath, and new carpeting in the guest wing. The formal entry opens to a living room with fireplace, beamed ceilings, and expansive windows, flowing into a formal dining room and family room, both showcasing architectural charm. The family room offers a second fireplace, wet bar, built-ins, and direct access to a spacious rear courtyard that stretches the length of the property. The generous kitchen features granite countertops, a prep island with sink, pantry with antique natural wood doors, and top appliances including a Thermador 6-burner range with griddle and double oven, Viking hood, and Sub-Zero refrigerator. A small, enclosed courtyard off the kitchen with pet door provides a safe outdoor retreat for pets. The adjacent laundry room leads to a private guest wing with 3/4 bath and bedroom, ideal for guests, in-laws, or tenants. The main hall connects to three additional bedrooms, including a primary suite with vaulted ceilings, dual closets (one walk-in), French doors to a private patio and pool, and a spa-like bath with walk-in shower and raised jetted tub. Two secondary bedrooms share a 3/4 hall bath with direct access to one. Outdoors, the expansive courtyard, heated pool, and wraparound patio offer a serene setting surrounded by trees and landscaping—perfect for hummingbird sightings by day and owls at night. In addition to Lanai Road Elementary, the home offers close proximity to shopping, dining, and entertainment along Ventura Boulevard, outdoor recreation at the Encino Reservoir and nearby trails, plus quick access to Hayvenhurst, Mulholland, Sepulveda, and the 405 Freeway.
