Lake Balboa! Extremely rare opportunity to acquire two homes on one lot in one of Lake Balboa’s leafiest, most-prime areas. The best of both worlds is offered with one house being a restored and remodeled classic three bed, two bath gem while the second house is all-new, providing contemporary styling with two bedrooms - each with en-suite baths. Each house faces a different street and has its own separate access, address, private yard and in-home laundry. Both have new roofs, plumbing, electrical panels, kitchens, appliances and bathrooms. Both homes have been professionally decorated with wood floors, dual-glazed windows, Walker Zanger tile, French doors and thoughtful touches throughout. There is no other property like this on the market, let alone in this price class. Great for extended families, home-based businesses or live in one and rent the other. This property offers flexibility, style and affordability all in one great, leafy package!
