Tucked among thick oak trees up a quiet winding road in the Verdugo Woodlands there are 16,339 sf of lush landscape with a 2,554 sf* rambling cabin-like home of 3 bdrms, 1.75 bathrooms, an updated kitchen and lots of inside and outside bonus spaces. The rustic feel of this home harkens back to a time when life was slower and more relaxed, when we could sit for hours and paint the majesty of an oak tree or fill a journal with lines of poetry. On paper this home might appeal to many with its large square footages and the full, legal 1 bdrm Guest House but mind that it is not a traditional home with rooms off a central hall and a nice flat backyard. It is truly special and must be appreciated for its eclectic, natural beauty and unique floorplan that takes full advantage of the quiet woodsy setting and lush landscape. History suggests that this home was originally a weekend retreat away from the hustle and bustle of city life, truly a cabin in the woods. There have been some recent updates however such as central air conditioning, some newer plumbing including the main water and waste lines, newer gas lines, newer 200 amp electrical panel and 2 sets of laundry hook-ups. A long screen porch spans the length of the main floor and overlooks the huge lot that spills out from the house on all sides surrounding and buffering the home from all its neighbors creating a setting of true solitude. The 2+ car garage has two entrances for cars as well as access to the house and the guest house. The many sections of the yard lend itself to all sorts of creative uses. This home and property are a great substitute for the charm and romanticism of Mt. Washington but with the convenience of living in the wonderful community of Glendale in one of the best elementary school districts in the city. *Square footage measurements are per assr.
