Welcome to 7466 Louise Ave., an elegant, contemporary Mediterranean home in the heart of Lake Balboa. As you enter through a grassy, set-back front yard and into the light & bright interiors, you’re greeted by a dramatic formal living room that sets the tone. Soaring two-story ceilings, abundant natural light streaming through oversized windows, arched openings and a Juliet balcony to the home’s upper level create a refined yet inviting space. An adjacent formal dining room flows seamlessly into a spacious family room complete with built-in surround sound, and anchored by a gas & wood-burning fireplace. Along with a large gourmet kitchen with quartz countertops and stainless steel appliances. A thoughtfully placed bedroom and full bathroom on the main level provide flexibility as a private guest suite or home office. At the center of the home, a grand staircase with wrought iron railings leads to an upper landing. Off of which you’ll find two additional bedrooms with a full Jack-n-Jill style bathroom. And the piece de resistance, a luxurious primary suite with a walk-in closet and a beautifully appointed en-suite bathroom, creating a calm and restorative escape from the day. Enjoy the property’s private, hedged-in yard, where you can spend evenings around the outdoor gas fire pit or unwind in the 45-jet Caldera Palatino hot tub spa. Other features include an oversized two-car garage with generous storage space, and a 30-amp EV charger. Smart-home additions include a Honeywell smart thermostat, a six-zone indoor/outdoor sprinkler controller, wiring for Ethernet, telephone, cable, and a security system, and 17 Tesla solar panels under a transferable lease.
