Description
Welcome to this charming, updated home in one of Lake Balboa's most desirable pockets. The main residence offers approximately 1,124 square feet with 3 bedrooms and 1 bathroom, featuring fresh interior paint, abundant natural light, recessed lighting, dual-pane windows, and an updated kitchen with granite countertops, stainless steel appliances, and a spacious pantry and laundry area. The floor plan also offers potential to add a second bathroom, as other homes with the same floor plan have done. Adding to the versatility of the property, a portion of the garage has been finished as an approximately 213-square-foot soundproof, air-conditioned studio, ideal for podcasting, vlogging, music, content creation, or a private workspace. The MLS-listed square footage of approximately 1,337 square feet reflects the combined approximate square footage of the main residence and studio; the main residence itself is approximately 1,124 square feet. Outside, the extensively improved backyard is made for entertaining, with a built-in gas barbecue, generous grassy area, putting green, and plenty of space to relax or gather with friends. Ideally located near Lake Balboa Park, the Sepulveda Basin, golf courses, shopping, dining, and convenient access to the 101 and 405 freeways, this is a special opportunity in the heart of Lake Balboa.
