Property Description

The quote, "They don't make them like they used to" is perfect for this turn-of -the-century American Craftsman Home. It is nestled in the heart of Van Nuys behind a lush privacy fence on a large 7,010 square foot lot, and as soon as you lay your eyes on it you'll recognize the true "Pride-of-Ownership." Here are just a few of its many fine features: Lush landscaping, and the signature covered front porch with its sitting area and brick based columns welcomes you. The custom front door swings open to a flowing 1,370 square foot floor plan that is in "Move-in-Condition" with the original leaded wood windows, hardwood flooring, and intricate architectural woodwork that was created by a master carpenter throughout. The living room is bathed in natural light and has a cozy wood-burning pot belly stove, custom built in window seat, and built-in bookcases with lead glass doors. The family's cook is going to love the vintage kitchen, abundant cabinets, easy care tile counters, built-in appliances, plus the convenience of the very large adjoining formal dining room with custom built-in window seat. 2 Spacious bedrooms; the master suite has a lighted ceiling fan, and large walk-in closet. A total of 2 bathrooms. The Jack & Jill hallway bathroom has a classic freestanding clawfoot tub, plus abundant built-in cabinets. The basement is perfect for storage, or perhaps a wine cellar. You will truly enjoy the very private backyard with its solar heated saltwater pool and jacuzzi.
