A private world of timeless elegance awaits behind the gates of this exceptional Sherman Oaks residence. Enveloped by lush English-inspired gardens and mature greenery, the 5-bedroom, 5-bathroom home is an enchanting retreat where classic Hollywood romance meets effortless California living.
Originally built in 1926 and exquisitely reimagined in 2015, the residence honors its architectural character while embracing a refined, modern sensibility. Beyond the wrought-iron gate, a hedge-framed entrance leads through climbing vines and layers of lush, mature greenery, creating an arrival that feels both intimate and transportive. Inside, sun-filled spaces reveal vaulted ceilings, richly distressed wood floors, crown molding, wainscoting, and thoughtful designer details throughout. The expansive great room, anchored by a fireplace, sets the stage for sophisticated yet relaxed living, flowing naturally to the dining room, wet bar, and beautifully appointed chef's kitchen. Carrara marble countertops, a generous center island, custom cabinetry, Thermador appliances, and a Walker Zanger tile backsplash complete the space. Upstairs, the primary suite feels entirely removed from the world below. Vaulted ceilings create an airy sense of volume, while dual walk-in closets and a private balcony with picturesque views elevate the retreat. The spa-like bath features a two-person multi-jet shower and separate soaking tub. Four additional bedrooms provide beautifully proportioned accommodations for family and guests. Outside, the grounds unfold as a secluded sanctuary. A flagstone terrace, manicured lawn, mature landscaping, and a sparkling pool and spa with water feature create an idyllic setting from morning coffee to sunset cocktails and evenings spent entertaining beneath the stars. Additional amenities include surround sound and skylights, while the coveted Sherman Oaks location provides convenient access to the Westside via Beverly Glen. Private, romantic, and undeniably special, this is a home with a rare sense of place—one that feels worlds away, yet remains connected to everything Los Angeles has to offer.
