Description
Elegant custom-built and nearly 5,000 sf, 6 bed, 6 bath estate in coveted Libbit Park offers a rare blend of architectural character and contemporary comfort. The property is set back from a privacy wall on lower Valjean Avenue, a wide and quiet street with leafy trees and no pass-through traffic. The home -- set among other similarly sized properties -- makes a striking first impression with classic smooth stucco, tile roof, mature and new landscaping, and refined arched detailing. Through mahogany double doors, the entry foyer is an architectural moment that sets the tone for the home's craftsmanship and scale. Inside, a graceful curved staircase accented by wrought-iron balustrade with circular detailing and designer white onyx wall sconces frame a European stone fireplace in the living room. Sunlight touches refinished travertine floors through cathedral-type arched clerestory windows near double height (~24 feet) coffered ceilings. The main 2400 sf floor open concept layout with living-family great room flows seamlessly to the backyard through wood-framed sliding dual-pane glass and French doors. The home's overall design offers long sightlines, high 12 ft ceilings, and effortless indoor-outdoor living. A large chef's kitchen anchors the home with chef-quality appliances (built-in GE Monogram suite, Viking six-burner/dual oven range, two dishwashers, three sinks), large center island, custom cabinetry, and direct outdoor access -- ideal for modern lifestyles. A well located formal dining room, to the right of the entry and adjacent the kitchen, sets the stage for life-cycle and holiday gatherings with family and friends. Upstairs, the property has an open air library with built-in bookshelves, and four spacious ensuite bedrooms each with outdoor balconies, warm wood finishes, and a refined esthetic. The nearly 830 sf primary suite has its own fireplace, two balconies, large walk-in and second built-in closet, and spa-inspired bathroom. A private backyard is framed by mature hedging and new landscaping that invite relaxation by the pool / hot tub or entertaining near the outdoor built-in BBQ. Downstairs, two additional rooms provide abundant options for guests or live-in nanny, home theatre, office, and/or gym. A high ceiling garage with built-in cabinetry has ample storage and room for large vehicles. 4910 Valjean offers a rare opportunity to own a well maintained and recently built (2008) custom home with scale, privacy, and enduring design, all in one of Encino's most desirable neighborhoods. In top rated Hesby Oaks Charter school district (K-8).
