Description
This stunning Connecticut-country-house style residence is situated on approximately 1/3 acre in the Sherman Oaks Hills. Built in 1942 and reminiscent of Robert Byrd's rustic architectural style, the captivating home is a gated and private haven that features 3bd/3ba in the main house, a separate 1 bd Studio with detached (4th) bath, a large pool and spa, and breathtaking views. After descending the custom stone staircase, guests are greeted by a storybook home that is incomparable in its design details and charm. The interior boasts remarkable craftsmanship, including a great room with handcrafted wood beams supporting a vaulted ceiling, hand-pegged floors, a large decorative fireplace, and bespoke latch doors and bookcases. A recent addition to the great room incorporates reclaimed wood plank floors and expansive windows on three sides to capture the sweeping valley views. Included in the impressive primary suite is a massive stone fireplace, walk-in closet, and a bathroom with a clawfoot tub. Architectural detailing has been retained in the custom-built kitchen with its sunny breakfast area and beautifully crafted built-ins, while the cooking area is equipped with granite counters and the original 1947 O'Keefe and Merritt stove. The home features custom windows throughout, unique in design while showering the spaces with light and framing the magnificent exterior vistas. An adjoining loft/office area, accessible from the Great Room, leads to the upper-level bedroom with pitched ceilings, a large private bathroom, and a sitting area. French doors throughout the home open to an enormous deck that wraps around a sparkling pool with a built-in spa and an automatic cover. Overlooking the pool, the 2-story guest house is suitable for use as an office, guest quarters, studio, or media room. Expansive decking, an exterior bathroom with shower, a custom stone stairway, a hillside tram, and lush landscaping with colorful florals all add to the magical outdoor ambience. Street-level parking includes a two-car garage and two extra parking places. This extraordinary home must be seen to be believed!
