Set behind secure gates and surrounded by mature greenery, the home welcomes you with vaulted ceilings, hardwood floors, and an airy living room centered around a gas fireplace. A sliding glass door opens to a newly refinished deck extending the living space outdoors and creating the perfect setting for alfresco dining or relaxing beneath the trees. The primary bedroom is a tranquil retreat with soaring ceilings and direct access to the updated bathroom. The second bedroom, featuring Saltillo tile and French doors that open to the backyard, is ideal as a guest room, creative studio, or home office. The kitchen pairs new stainless steel appliances with refreshed original cabinetry, while a cozy dining nook adds warmth to everyday meals. Recent improvements include new interior and exterior paint, an updated sewer line and plumbing, and a driveway curb cut for easy off-street parking. Split AC units in the living room and bedroom provide year-round comfort, and the generous outdoor space invites gardening, entertaining, or simply soaking in the California sun. With street-to-street access and dual entry points, this R3-zoned lot offers not only privacy but also the flexibility to expand, reimagine, or develop - a rare find in such a sought-after Westside location.
