Rare once-in-a-century opportunity to acquire a one-family-owned, 100-year-old classic — a gorgeous, character-filled Spanish home with sweeping valley views. Set on a 10,000 sq ft lot, the property boasts a commanding 100 feet of street frontage and two very secluded backyards and a set of huge private side yards for ultimate privacy. One of the rear yards offers a number of Runyon Canyon-like meandering paths set under 100-year-old oaks and other mature landscape, while the other features a great grassy play area, ideal for a future pool. Despite being one of the first homes built in Sherman Oaks, it has been thoroughly — yet sensitively — modernized. It now features new systems (including roof, sewer line, AC, etc.) and has undergone a complete remodel that retains all its original character and joy, but now beautifully repositioned for a new millennium. The main public rooms include a formal entry, formal living and dining rooms, a large den, and an expansive, light-filled kitchen. The spacious living room includes a fireplace, vaulted stenciled beamed ceilings, built-in shelving, and both a stained-glass vintage bay window and an oversized, arch-topped Palladian-style window. The paneled den offers sweeping views across nearly the entire valley, while the formal dining room opens to a view-facing balcony. The kitchen features a bay window and is appointed with bespoke custom cabinetry, marble countertops, vintage-style tile, and modern appliances — except for the original stove! — along with a charming separate pantry and back entrance. The bathrooms have been completely redone, carefully styled to reflect the home’s original character. The bedrooms are en-suite, offering views and deck access, with the primary suite including a view-facing clawfoot soaking tub. Natural light abounds throughout the home, gleaming off the original (refinished!) 100-year-old oak floors. The ceilings are coffered downstairs and vaulted upstairs with original stenciled beams. Other old-world features include vintage light fixtures, glass knobs, and original stained glass doors and windows — all combining to make this one of the most charming and unique homes south of the Boulevard. A home like this only comes around once in a hundred years!
