Résidence Unifamiliale À Los Angeles

Set behind a graceful circular drive and framed by lush landscaping, this storybook traditional residence occupies an expansive 23,178-square-foot lot in the coveted Encino Hills. At the heart of the drive, a magnificent Chinese Elm creates a striking first impression, complementing a home that beautifully balances classic character with thoughtful modern updates. Inside, light-filled interiors unfold beneath vaulted, open-beamed ceilings, with hardwood floors and a series of French doors creating an effortless connection to the gardens and pool beyond. The living room centers around a fireplace and opens directly to the oversized backyard, while the formal dining room is distinguished by beautiful and original diamond cross-hatch windows overlooking the front garden. At the heart of the home, a custom remodeled kitchen pairs stainless-steel appliances with a Zia ceramic tile backsplash, a cozy breakfast nook with a custom banquette, and an intimate wine bar. A spacious den, also lined with French doors, opens to the sparkling pool and extends the home’s easy indoor-outdoor rhythm. Three generous bedrooms occupy the main level, accompanied by two updated baths. Upstairs, the private primary suite is a serene retreat, defined by vaulted, beamed ceilings, dual walk-in closets and Valley views framed by original diamond cross-hatch windows. An office area with a built-in bookcase completes the primary suite along with a private balcony that overlooks the lush backyard. The tastefully remodeled primary bath features dual sinks, a freestanding tub, and a separate stall shower. Beyond the interiors, the property reveals its full scale and versatility. The expansive grounds encompass a brick patio, large swimmer’s pool, broad stretches of lawn, mature landscaping, and a separate structure ideally suited as a studio or home office. A secluded garden area with gazebo adds another layer of charm and creates a series of inviting spaces for entertaining, working, or simply enjoying the landscape.
