About This Property

Perched behind gates at the end of a private road in the hills of Sherman Oaks, 3913 Ventura Canyon is a stunning contemporary Mediterranean estate offering breathtaking panoramic canyon and valley views, exceptional privacy, and resort-style living on an extraordinary 30,310-square-foot lot. Hidden by a gated private driveway and surrounded by lush, mature landscaping, this impeccably maintained residence spans approximately 5,053 square feet, radiating warmth, sophistication, and timeless California style through its soaring exposed-beam ceilings, rich chiseled travertine floors, dramatic walls of glass, and sun-drenched interiors. Designed for both grand-scale entertaining and comfortable everyday living, the heart of the home is a chef’s kitchen featuring granite counters, a large center island, dual sinks, a walk-through pantry, and top-of-the-line stainless Viking appliances including a professional six-burner range with a griddle and pot filler. This culinary hub flows effortlessly into an expansive family room equipped with built-in surround sound, a fireplace, and captivating views, as well as elegant formal living and dining rooms that showcase an additional gas/wood-burning fireplace and five sets of French doors that seamlessly connect the indoor and outdoor spaces. The home's flexible floor plan accommodates four spacious bedrooms and four-and-a-half baths, headlined by a luxurious primary suite retreat complete with its own fireplace, a secluded patio, sweeping vistas, and a spa-inspired bath with dual vanities, a soaking tub, and a separate shower. Additionally, the layout includes a gym/study with a private bath and walk-in closet that can easily function as a fifth bedroom, alongside a newer upstairs retreat perfect for a secondary family room, executive office, media lounge, or guest quarters. Outside, the meticulously landscaped grounds evoke a private luxury resort, boasting expansive entertaining patios, two large grassy yards, a sparkling saltwater pool, a separate hot tub, and spectacular day-and-night backdrops. Ultimately, this rare gated estate masterfully combines privacy, scale, elegance, and incredible indoor-outdoor living, all while remaining just moments from the best shopping, dining, and entertainment that Sherman Oaks has to offer.
