Don't miss this once in a generation opportunity to own an historic Hollywood creative campus on nearly 3/4 of an acre in prime Valley Village. For over 40 years the property has served as the location of J&M Costumers, a custom costume house serving the film, television, and music industries worldwide. The company has worked with a wide variety of productions and artists including Natalie Cole, Michael Jackson, Tom Cruise, Ariana Grande, Lady Gaga and Bad Bunny, making the site a longstanding creative hub in the entertainment industry. Spanning 2 legal parcels totaling more than 30,000 square feet, the property offers an incredibly rare combination of residential, creative, storage, and parking uses. The campus includes 2 single-family homes, a casita, a two-story shop, a large outbuilding, multiple storage areas, a swimming pool, and parking for 10+ vehicles, including space for recreational vehicles. Tucked behind fencing and gates on a quiet Valley Village street, the property delivers privacy, flexibility, and scale that are difficult to replicate. 5708 Gentry Ave features a 3-bedroom, 2-bath residence of approximately 1,819 square feet on a 24,186 square foot lot.

An additional structure at the front of the property has been taken down to the studs and may offer an opportunity for future improvement or reconfiguration, subject to buyer investigation and verification with the appropriate authorities. The rear of the property borders CalTrans land near the Burbank exit of the 170 Freeway. Buyers should independently investigate any potential access, use, or development possibilities. A truly unique offering for owner-users, creatives, investors, or developers seeking a legacy property with exceptional versatility and history.
