Welcome to this charming Lake Balboa gem — a classic single story 3-bedroom (currently configured as a 2-bedroom), 2-bath home offering 1,234 square feet of living space on a generous 6,002 square foot lot. This gated property boasts a grassy front yard, large rear yard and a detached garage with fully approved plans for an ADU, ready for the new owner to build and maximize the value!
Mid-century design touches blend beautifully with modern upgrades throughout the home. The updated kitchen features stone countertops, a spacious island, and stainless steel appliances — perfect for cooking and entertaining. The cozy living room is centered around a stunning wood-burning fireplace, ideal for creating warm memories, especially during the holidays.
The primary suite and secondary bedroom have been combined to create a sprawling en-suite retreat, offering plenty of space and comfort. Notable system upgrades include a newer presidential-style roof, newer sewer line under the home and out to the street, copper plumbing, central AC/heating, recessed lights, tankless water heater, a convenient service porch off the kitchen with laundry and energy-efficient Milgard dual-pane windows installed in 2019.
Step into the backyard and discover the large parcel with synthetic grass, open space, possible RV access, ample parking and plenty of room to entertain or expand. You’ll also enjoy a bountiful avocado tree along with lime and orange trees — perfect for year-round enjoyment.
All of this in a prime Lake Balboa location, just steps to Saticoy Plaza (featuring Starbucks, Ralphs, Panda Express, El Pollo Loco, The Chop Shop BBQ and Chase Bank), local favorite Humble Bee Cafe, and just a short drive to Lake Balboa Park, the Japanese Garden, Multiple Parks, Encino Farmers Market, Golf courses, Tennis Courts, Archery, the Metro, Ventura Blvd, the 101 and the 405 This home is full of potential, pride of ownership, and possibilities. Don’t miss your chance to make it yours!
