About This Home

This Golden Valley charmer blends original character with smart updates in all the right places. Step into a sun filled living room with fresh LVP flooring, coved ceilings, and a classic wood-burning fireplace that brings all the cozy vibes.

The layout offers two main-floor bedrooms plus a full bath, with a private upstairs owner’s suite and its own 3⁄4 bath. Major mechanicals were all replaced in 2022 (furnace, AC, and water softener) giving you peace of mind for years to come.

Downstairs, the unfinished basement is clean, open, and full of potential... a true handyman’s dream! Out back, a freshly redone deck sets the stage for relaxing nights and weekend BBQs. You’ve also got an oversized 2 car garage.

Quiet street, easy freeway access, and just minutes to parks, shops, and West End. Whether you're a first-timer or looking to downsize smart, this one’s a solid find in a spot that keeps getting better.
