About This Home
Welcome to this beautifully updated 3-bedroom, 2-bathroom Rancho gem nestled behind a lush privacy hedge in one of Burbank’s most coveted neighborhoods. From the moment you arrive, you’re greeted by a serene front yard oasis complete with a tranquil sitting area, water feature, and romantic string lights—perfect for relaxing evenings or intimate gatherings. Inside, the home exudes warmth and character with gleaming hardwood floors and a bright, inviting living room anchored by a cozy fireplace. The space flows seamlessly into the formal dining room and a remodeled chef’s kitchen, featuring crisp white cabinetry, quartzite countertops, stainless steel appliances, and a show-stopping Bertazzoni range sure to inspire culinary creativity. The spacious primary suite is a true retreat, with French doors leading to the peaceful backyard with multiple fruit trees including pears, apples and grape vines. The luxurious ensuite bath is a spa-like sanctuary, with stone floors, stone counters boasting double sinks, beautifully tiled shower, and a stunning clawfoot tub with a TV to enjoy while relaxing. Beyond the main house, the converted insulated garage has been transformed into an artist’s dream studio—complete with a split AC unit and bi-folding retractable doors that open completely to create an inspiring indoor-outdoor experience. Equestrian enthusiasts will be delighted by the private stable, expansive fenced turnaround, and a well-equipped tack room featuring built-in storage—an exceptionally rare find in the heart of the city. The property also includes a dedicated wash rack with a drain and sump pump that leads to the street, plus a spacious shed tucked behind the garage for even more storage. And for a touch of Hollywood charm, rumor has it the legendary talking horse, Mr. Ed, may have once called this very property home!
