About This Home
As of April 2026Welcome to your boho-inspired sanctuary in the heart of Lake Balboa. This adorable 3-bedroom, 1-bath home radiates warmth, light, and tranquility from the moment you arrive behind the white-picket gated fence and peaceful front-yard fountains. Inside, sunlit rooms and rich wood floors create a sense of calm and connection, blending cozy comfort with effortless California style. The living and dining areas invite relaxation and quiet evenings, while the spacious primary bedroom opens directly to the sparkling pool area--a perfect retreat for morning coffee, lazy afternoons, or evenings under the stars. Every corner of this home feels intentional, balancing bohemian charm with modern simplicity. The front garden and fountains set a tranquil tone, while the backyard offers privacy, beauty, and the promise of easy entertaining or peaceful solitude. This home captures the essence of Southern California living--bright, peaceful, and endlessly inviting. A true Lake Balboa gem.
