About This Home

As of May 2020

Set in a close-knit Sherman Oaks neighborhood, in the highly sought-after Kester Elementary school district, this is the perfect place to call home. The front aesthetic is so charming & cute. The sun-filled interior has three spacious bedrooms, refinished modern color wood floors, remodeled bathrooms and so much more. Each space is very open and airy, with great contrast flowing between the tiled fireplace in the living room and calming paint colors that can be found throughout. The kitchen features lovely stone countertops - is stylish & functional - and features recessed lighting, custom cabinets, and stainless steel appliances. When its time for entertaining, the backyard is a perfect venue. A very large patio and backyard make for an incredible entertainers dream, which offers a lush lawn and an oversized can't-miss backyard Rec room. Home has crown molding, central air & heat, nearby parks, Ventura Blvd, shopping, & restaurants.
