$1,599,000

Welcome to 4440 Sylmar Avenue, a true gem in the heart of Library Square, one of Sherman Oaks' most coveted neighborhoods. This 3-bedroom, 2-bath mid-century classic has been thoughtfully remodeled and reimagined by a renowned Los Angeles contractor in 2023, with more than $450,000 in renovations completed as the owners'… Read More personal residence, blending timeless character with modern comfort and craftsmanship throughout. Extensively renovated with care, the home features a new HVAC system, electrical panel, roof, plumbing (including a new mainline), tankless water heater, flooring and all-new Milgard windows and doors offering peace of mind along with style. At the heart of the residence, the original brick fireplace anchors the living space, beautifully set beneath a vaulted ceiling with exposed wood beams. Throughout the 1,700+/- square feet, European white oak floors add warmth and elegance, with a striking herringbone pattern showcased in the open living, dining, and kitchen area. The one-of-a-kind kitchen is both stunning and functional, featuring a jumbo Crystal Saint quartz island with a custom downdraft range for the 36 oven. A farmhouse sink overlooks black-framed windows, while custom shaker cabinets create a cohesive palette alongside the handcrafted Pratt & Larson tile backsplash. A hidden door reveals a dreamy pantry with open shelving, a checkerboard tile floor and laundry hookups -- equal parts charming and practical. From the dining area, sliding doors open to a screened-in patio, creating an inviting indoor-outdoor flow that's perfect for entertaining or curling up with a good book. The main bedroom features French doors that lead to a spacious Trex deck, offering a private retreat surrounded by greenery. The guest bedroom also includes two large windows, a wall-to-wall closet, and its own ensuite bathroom. This spacious bath impresses with custom statement tile and a large glass-enclosed shower. The third bedroom features custom-built secret bookshelves that open to the main bedroom ideal for an office, library or boutique-style primary suite expansion. Outdoors the expansive property is fully enclosed with brand-new oak fencing and enhanced by thoughtfully designed landscaping using only native California plants. The backyard offers multiple spaces to enjoy -- barbecue on the patio, relax in the shade beneath the oak tree or soak up the sun while clipping roses from the flourishing rose bushes. In the front yard, enjoy morning coffee on the deck while watching hummingbirds and Monarch butterflies or pick fresh lemons straight from your own trees. This is a truly special dwelling, filled with warmth, natural light, and distinctive details throughout, a rare opportunity that delivers both comfort and unmistakable one-of-a-kind appeal. A rare opportunity to own a turnkey haven in one of Sherman Oaks most desirable neighborhoods. Conveniently close to renowned dining, outstanding shopping and just a short drive to the Westside, beaches and freeways. Create your California lifestyle.
