Description
Welcome to this beautifully updated and spacious Encino townhome, ideally positioned within the community to offer one of the most private, secure, and centrally located settings in the entire complex. Tucked away from main entry points yet perfectly situated for effortless parking garage access, this residence enjoys a rare combination of tranquility, convenience, and direct proximity to the community's most desirable amenities, including the pool, spa, fitness center, and lush open grounds. Ground-level entry, with no one above or beneath you. Step through the elegant double-door entry into a bright, expansive interior featuring soaring ceilings and an open-concept living and dining space designed for both comfort and entertaining. The home seamlessly connects to a private outdoor patio, creating an ideal indoor-outdoor flow and offering a unique extension of living space. A charming 'decorative' fireplace anchors the living room, adding warmth and character. The expansive kitchen is filled with natural light and thoughtfully designed with granite countertops, stainless steel appliances, abundant cabinetry, and a versatile bonus flex space perfect for a breakfast nook, den, or home office. The first floor also includes a powder room, an in-unit stackable washer and dryer, and a generous storage closet tucked beneath the stairs. Upstairs, the primary suite serves as a private retreat, featuring a custom-designed accent wall, two built-out closets, and an updated ensuite bathroom with dual sinks and a sleek step-in shower. A wide hallway lined with additional storage closets separates the bedrooms, enhancing privacy and functionality. The spacious secondary bedroom offers its own ensuite bathroom with a soaking tub, a large walk-in closet, and ample space for a workstation, ideal for guests or flexible living. Set within a gated, resort-style community, residents enjoy a sparkling pool and spa, fitness center, recreation room, and secured subterranean parking with two spaces and additional storage. The lush, park-like grounds are a standout feature, expansive green, and thoughtfully maintained, offering multiple areas to relax, unwind, or enjoy outdoor living just steps from your door. All of this, moments from the vibrant shops and dining along Ventura Blvd, with easy access to the 101 and 405 freeways. A rare opportunity to own a centrally located, private, and amenity-adjacent residence in one of Encino's most desirable communities.
