About This Home
As of May 2025Two ways to make a great investment in Real Estate: 1) Buy in the best location, 2) buy a home with great bones that you can renovate. Welcome to 13149 Margate Street in the highly desirable North Hidden Woods neighborhood of Sherman Oaks, California. Originally part of a 12.5-acre parcel purchased by Mellenthin in the late 40's/early 50's, this fantastic neighborhood was divided into approx 135 homes with eight cul-de-sacs with only two entrances. It's a quiet, close-knit community where the only cars you will see are people who are lost, or live here. It's common to see friendly neighbors out walking their dogs, and an occasional block party adding to its charm. Offering over 2,000 square feet of living space with the original owners having expanded the home in 1963, there are two spacious bedrooms sharing a hall bath, while a secluded primary retreat with lots of closet space and a private bath are just up the stairs. The home's best feature is the expansive living and dining room with high open beamed ceilings, beautiful fireplace with detailed millwork, and walls of glass that look out to the beautifully landscaped yard that can easily accommodate a patch of turf for a soccer pitch, a lap pool or your very own secret garden. Towards the front, there's also a cozy den (also with fireplace and half bath) that could easily be used as an office, or 4th guest bedroom and the working galley kitchen can be updated as is with new counters and flooring for a rustic modern feel, or blow out and opened up to the dining room beyond. This is a diamond in the rough, a wonderful property in a great location, and offered at a fair price. Come check out 13149 Margate Street!
