Built in 1941, this tidy, mid-century (ish) bungalow is an affordable starter home with character. It’s in the great location of Sherman Oaks near the Galleria, Ventura Blvd. and easy freeway access. The wood floors are in fabulous condition and the home has been updated with dual pane windows.
The rich, wood-lined den has beamed ceilings, a large brick fireplace, and built in book cases. It has a glass door which exits to the large, brick patio and back yard.
My favorite part is the kitchen. You may have noticed by now I’m a sucker for green kitchen cabinets. The spring green color of these give it a fresh look while still holding on to the retro style. Also, the kitchen is in fantastic condition! For a galley kitchen it’s got tons of cabinets, including the cute little shelf for your microwave. And the bathroom has that signature 1940s style that so many homes in the San Fernando Valley have with great blue and pink accents and little windows flanking the medicine cabinet.
This is a fabulous investment or starter home in the great area of Sherman Oaks. For a personal tour, e-mail me or call me at (818) 261-5253.
