Nestled on a charming tree-lined street in Lake Balboa, this well-maintained 3-bedroom, 1-bathroom home offers timeless appeal and thoughtful updates on a generously sized 6,000+ sq ft lot. Original hardwood floors run throughout the main living areas and bedrooms, while tile accents the kitchen and bath. A floor-to-ceiling bay window floods the living room with natural light and flows into the dining room, creating a seamless layout for everyday living. The kitchen features crisp white cabinetry, dark gray countertops, stainless-steel appliances, a window above the sink, and connects to a dedicated laundry room with extra storage and backyard access. Recessed lighting, dual-pane windows, copper plumbing, relined sewer, and a newer HVAC system add comfort and peace of mind. All three bedrooms are bright and equipped with ceiling fans; one offers dual access from the hall and kitchen, plus direct entry to the covered back patio. The spacious primary bedroom includes two closets for ample storage. Outdoors, the expansive backyard is a true retreat, complete with a tile-floored pergola patio, a lush lawn shaded by mature trees, and plenty of space for a future pool or garden. A long driveway leads to a detached 2-car garage, providing generous parking and potential for ADU conversion. Conveniently located near Lake Balboa Park, golf courses, local dining, shopping, and easy access to the 101 and 405 freeways.
