About This Home
First Time on the Market in Over 60 Years – An Encino Village Treasure. Welcome to this beloved family home, offered for the first time in more than six decades. With only two owners in its lifetime, this property has been the backdrop for countless memories – birthday parties, holidays and graduations celebrated with pride. Now, it’s time for a new family to make memories here. Nestled in the heart of Encino Village, a tree-lined neighborhood steeped in Hollywood history and reportedly the site of the former RKO Studios movie lot where scenes from “It’s a Wonderful Life” were filmed, this home is rich character and community history. Inside, you’ll find the warmth of original hardwood floors, two fireplaces, a brick hearth, and a vaulted, wood-beamed ceiling with skylights in the family room. The split bedroom floor plan offers privacy, versatility and endless potential. This home is ready for your personal vision and updates to start its new chapter. Step outside to its ample yards, perfect for children’s playtime, entertaining friends, or simply enjoying the California sunshine. The detached garage is ideal for parking, storage, or potential ADU conversion.Just around the corner from the amenities of Balboa Park, you’ll enjoy all the benefits of suburban living with easy freeway access to city shopping, dining, entertainment and employment centers. Come see why this home was a family favorite for over 60 years.
