This timeless two-story Colonial home is nestled in the heart of Glenoaks Canyon, catty-corner from Glenoaks Park, which features a state-of-the-art playground and sports courts, and is the beloved site of the neighborhood?s annual pancake breakfast. Ideally located, it sits between Glenoaks Elementary and the Scholl Canyon ball fields and public golf course. While close to the 2 and 134 freeways, Eagle Rock, and downtown Glendale, this serene neighborhood retains its private, residential feel.
Blending classic charm with modern updates, the home showcases hardwood floors, wrought-iron railings, and elegant built-ins. The spacious living room features a cozy fireplace, while the remodeled kitchen and dining area are equipped with Viking appliances, refined finishes, and picturesque backyard views. The ground floor includes a guest bath and a versatile study or bedroom, while upstairs, two sunlit bedrooms and beautifully updated baths await. The luxurious primary suite offers a walk-in closet, an oversized shower, double sinks, a soaking tub, and a private toilet.
The backyard unfolds in three tiers, each designed for relaxation and functionality. Just outside the kitchen, a turf and decomposed granite patio creates the perfect setting for outdoor dining, surrounded by lush greenery and mature fruit trees. Behind the garage, a custom-built, walk-through greenhouse features high-end, hardwired lighting and fans. A flagstone staircase leads to a spacious terrace, offering an additional seating area, while the upper portion of the lot presents a blank canvas for future projects.
The meticulously landscaped front garden overflows with vibrant, drought-resistant plants, and all trees have been expertly trimmed by top-tier arborists?remaining strong even through January's windstorms. In addition to ample street parking, the long driveway accommodates four cars and is outfitted with a 220V electric car charger.
The homeowners have taken exceptional care of the property, investing in hillside stabilization, French drains, and professional earthquake retrofitting. The garage is outfitted with a highly functional workshop and storage system, and all rear and side windows have been thoughtfully restored. While some original front windows remain, a professional restoration would bring them back to their former glory.
This home is a rare find?offering charm, thoughtful upgrades, and a coveted location in one of Glendale?s most sought-after neighborhoods.
