Welcome to 17232 Elkwood Street, a beautifully updated single-story Ranch home nestled in a peaceful cul-de-sac in the heart of Lake Balboa. This 3-bedroom, 2-bathroom residence offers 1,772 square feet of stylish living space on a 5,540 square foot lot, filled with thoughtful upgrades, paid-off solar, and seamless indoor-outdoor flow.
Inside, you'll find an open floorplan enhanced by recessed lighting, a blend of tile and hardwood flooring, and a bright, airy layout that effortlessly connects the living, dining, and entertaining spaces. The spacious living room opens to the backyard through sliding glass doors, inviting in natural light and creating an ideal environment for gatherings and relaxation.

A separate laundry room is conveniently located off the den, offering added functionality and storage without sacrificing living space.
