About this home
A rare storybook retreat in the Toluca Lake area, behind mature landscaping on a private 8,008-square-foot lot, this enchanting retreat offers approximately 2,060 square feet of timeless character, flexible living space, and exceptional indoor-outdoor flow. A charming gated entry welcomes you into a light-filled residence featuring hardwood floors, a formal living room with fireplace, custom built-ins, and expansive walls of glass that open to a brick courtyard, creating a seamless connection between indoor and outdoor living. The thoughtfully designed floor plan includes dining room area, an inviting kitchen, two spacious bedrooms, and 1.5 bathrooms, including a beautifully remodeled primary bath with dual vanities and a luxurious steam shower. Upstairs, the finished attic provides substantial bonus space ideal for a home office, guest quarters, creative studio, media room, or potential additional bedrooms. Outside, multiple entertaining areas unfold across the grounds, including a private courtyard, grassy yard shaded by mature trees, sparkling pool, and a detached pool house offering endless possibilities for a studio, gym, office, retreat space, or future value-add opportunity. Rich with charm yet highly functional, this unique property presents a rare opportunity for owner-users, creatives, or investors seeking a distinctive home in an area known for its tree-lined streets, character homes, strong sense of community, and proximity to premier dining, shopping, and entertainment.
