Description
Single-Story Pool Home With the Big Work Already Done... Between today's prices, today's rates, and an uncertain economy, buying a home takes real thought. Then you step into a home where much of the heavy lifting is already done, and the pressure eases. Welcome to 13960 Leadwell, a single-story, 3-bedroom, 2-bathroom pool home with 1,436 square feet of living space in a tranquil Van Nuys setting. Picture your mornings here. Light moves through the open, flowing floor plan and across newer waterproof luxury vinyl plank flooring. New recessed lighting keeps evenings warm, and the interior has been recently painted and well maintained from room to room. The updated kitchen anchors it all, with upscale appliances, a beautiful farmhouse sink, and a classic subway tile backsplash. A decorative fireplace adds a finishing touch to the living space, and the spacious primary bedroom offers dual closets so everything has its place from day one. The whole home feels light, current, and ready for your furniture and your routines. Slide open the large glass door and the home flows onto a covered patio made for outdoor dining and lounging. The outdoor BBQ is connected to natural gas, so dinner outside is as simple as lighting the grill. Beyond the patio, a large grassy backyard of Saint Augustine grass surrounds a large pool with a new skimmer mechanism, new return lines, and a new pool equipment enclosure. Mature privacy hedges give the yard a secluded feel. Lemon, orange, fig, persimmon, pink grapefruit, and tangerine trees put fruit steps from your door, and backyard updates and lush landscaping come alive with canna lilies, calla lilies, roses, daffodils, chrysanthemums, white lilies, amaryllis, and daisies. An outdoor catio connects directly to the house. Whether you are hosting friends on the patio or taking a quiet swim at the end of the day, the yard gives you room for both. The proof of care is in what you can't see. Plumbing supply lines have been upgraded to copper, and drain lines have been upgraded from galvanized to ABS plastic. The HVAC system has a newer motor. A new Nest smart thermostat, a newer Ring video doorbell with cameras and security system, and a newer Wi-Fi-controlled irrigation system add everyday ease. The exterior has been recently painted, too. These are the projects many buyers expect to take on after closing, and here much of that work is already done. That is real peace of mind.The garage adds real flexibility. Finished and soundproofed, it offers approximately 350 square feet of bonus space to shape around your needs, separate from the home's 1,436 square feet, with its own dedicated mini-split HVAC system, overhead attic storage, and built-in storage cabinetry. It opens directly to the kitchen, and full-size laundry units make laundry day simple. A large driveway completes the picture out front.The location keeps life easy. Flat streets are ideal for walking and bike riding, and the setting is a de facto cul-de-sac. The 101, 405, and 170 freeways are close by, as are Costco, the Van Nuys Courthouse, and area shopping. Sherman Oaks, Ventura Blvd, Notre Dame High School, and the broader Valley are within reach, with connections toward Hollywood and the coast. A home like this lets you choose comfort and confidence at the same time. Schedule a showing and see for yourself how well 13960 Leadwell has been cared for.
