Description
A Sanctuary Above the City! Tucked into the wooded hillsides of Woodland Hills, this thoughtfully reimagined modern Mediterranean retreat offers something increasingly rare in Los Angeles: genuine seclusion, lofty views, and the quiet drama of mature trees and open sky, all just minutes from the boutique dining and culture of Ventura Boulevard, and a breathtaking canyon drive to the coast. Renovated from the ground up by two artists, custom walnut interior doors and a wood-burning fireplace framed in elegant fluted marble tile set a tone that is warm and refined, while generous stone-look tile on the ground floor gives way to engineered oak hardwood on the levels above. Light pours through newer triple-paned windows and an extra-high sliding door that opens the living and dining spaces to the outdoors, dissolving the boundary between inside and out.The kitchen has been completely reimagined with a solid marble tile backsplash, quartz countertops, warm modern finishes, underlit cabinetry, and a generous pantry - a beautifully functional space, with a glass door opening directly to the rear patio. A discreet powder room completes the ground floor. The second level opens into a book-lined screening room, pre-wired for Dolby 5.1 and finished with custom floating cabinetry purpose-built for media - a space equally given to cinema and quiet reading. Beyond, a hallway leads to two spacious bedrooms with scenic outlooks and custom built-in closets with glass sliding doors, a full bath, and a generous laundry room with ample storage. The larger bedroom has a corner gas fireplace with a modern fire-glass bed as does the primary suite above. The stairwell opens to a sweeping picture window, drawing light through the home and framing a burst of bougainvillea as you arrive at the primary suite - reserving the entire top floor. This elevated retreat offers panoramic mountain views, its own fireplace, a Juliette balcony facing the setting sun, and custom maple ply cabinetry with generous his-and-hers walk-in closets. The spa-like primary bath features custom floating cabinetry and a soaking tub positioned to face the western light. Outside, the landscaping reflects the same artistic sensibility as the interiors. Tall walls with a cascade of lush climbing foliage frame the approach, creating a sense of verdant seclusion as you arrive at the wide front steps. Beyond, Mediterranean plantings - olive trees, fragrant herbs, drought-resilient perennials - create a garden sanctuary that feels far removed from the city below. A bespoke steel-lined fire pit and seating area anchor the rear deck, surrounded by mature plantings and the sound of birds. With convenient freeway access, it is a home for people who want to be in Los Angeles without being consumed by it.Additional features include central HVAC, recirculating hot water system, attached two-car garage with storage loft, and three exterior utility closets. This house is easy to call HOME!!!
