Property Description

Welcome to this one-of-a-kind home located in the highly sought-after Valley Village neighborhood of Los Angeles. Originally built in 1942, this charming home has been thoughtfully updated while preserving its original character. The main house features 2 bedrooms, 1.5 baths, vinyl floors with original hardwood floors underneath, should you prefer that style. As you enter, you’re greeted by the spacious living room that opens into the dining area. This leads to the bright kitchen, which overlooks the family room and office. The office can easily be converted into a second bedroom with the addition of barn doors for added privacy. The kitchen features white cabinetry, granite countertops, an electric stove, gas oven, and a stainless steel dishwasher. The large island serves as a gathering space for family and friends to eat or socialize, making it ideal for both casual and formal occasions. The family room opens up to a lush, grassy backyard, creating a serene indoor-outdoor living experience. The laundry room, which is conveniently located within the pantry area, includes both a washer and dryer. The expansive backyard of the main house provides ample space for relaxation, gardening, or entertaining. A standout feature of the property is the gorgeous ADU (Accessory Dwelling Unit), which was built with permits and completed just a year ago. This spacious and beautifully designed one-bedroom, one-bath ADU offers a fantastic rental opportunity or can serve as a mother-in-law suite, adding incredible value to the property. The ADU has its own fenced-in yard area, ensuring privacy and a peaceful retreat. It is fully equipped with its own electric and water services, though it shares gas with the main house. The property’s prime location on one of the most desirable streets in Valley Village offers easy access to major freeways, including the 101, 170, and 405, as well as quick routes to the Hollywood Hills. It is also just minutes away from major film studios such as Universal Studios, Warner Bros., and NBC Universal, making it an ideal location for those working in the entertainment industry. Schedule your tour today! We are finishing up our remodel and will be adding professional photos by this weekend. Reach out if you have any questions!
