Set back from a tree-lined street in the highly sought-after North of Montana neighborhood, this beautifully renovated, move-in-ready traditional residence with its own detached guest house blends timeless charm with modern updates throughout. A brick pathway leads through the grassy front lawn to a delightful entry adorned by manicured gardens and blooming flowers. New floors extend from the formal living room, showcasing an attractive brick fireplace and wood-framed picture windows, into the formal dining room with a sliding glass door to the side patio. The adjacent kitchen has been extensively renovated with new appliances, an abundance of cabinetry, under lighting, a waterfall island, and stone backsplash. Bedrooms are spacious, and bathrooms are updated with on-trend fixtures and finishes for modern living. A walk-in closet has custom built-ins, and two rear bedrooms have direct backyard access. Outside, dine al-fresco, entertain guests, barbecue, relax, and enjoy warm summer evenings from multiple patio spaces or gather with friends and family around the trellis-topped fire pit. Fresh hardscaping and landscaping, together with privacy hedges and climbing vines, provide the perfect ambiance for laughter and conversation. Additional conveniences include side-by-side laundry central to the bedrooms, new systems throughout, storage shed, and detached guest house with its own kitchen and washer/dryer. Enjoy close proximity to the numerous boutiques and fine dining options of Santa Monica and Brentwood, all just moments to world-famous beaches, parks, schools, freeways, and the very best of the Westside.
