5811 Valley Oak Drive

Description

Nestled behind the highly-coveted Valley Oak Gate, this neighborhood has played host to renowned celebrities and notable figures who have both purchased and recently sold their homes as highlighted in recent press. Just renovated, this authentic Monterey Revival impresses at every turn. The current owners have put special thought and care into every choice made in the home. Surrounded by colorful landscaping and an expansive manicured lawn, you will feel at home immediately as you step inside. As you enter, the formal living room features an inviting fireplace and large windows. Beyond that is a cozy den where you can read and collect your thoughts. A 1/2 guest bath is en route to the kitchen and dining area, which have been reimagined to honor the original character and charm of the home, creating an open and bright space. Additionally, there is a homey breakfast nook, complete with fine cabinetry and top-of-the-line Bertazzoni appliances. Leading directly off the kitchen is a charming outdoor dining and barbecue area to enjoy meals al fresco. Just adjacent to the kitchen is a lovely guest bedroom with a sweetly renovated en-suite bathroom. Outside the living room is a large flagstone terrace with a fireplace to enjoy while lounging and a few steps up through the terraced landscaped gardens leads you to a sports court. Back inside, retreat upstairs through a cascading staircase. To the left, you will discover the primary suite, which features a vanity and dressing area, as well as double walk-in closets. The en-suite bathroom has been newly renovated and boasts a separate shower and bathtub, complete with brass fixtures and unique tiles. Across the hall is another bedroom with a classic California view of palm trees in the distance and its own newly renovated stunning bathroom. Below the house you will find a laundry room with an adjacent large finished area that could make a great office or gym. Plenty of parking space with an oversized 2-car garage and massive brick-laid driveway for up to 6 cars. Central location allows for easy access to Griffith Observatory, hiking, parks, restaurants & shopping
