A garden hideaway in Mandeville Canyon. This sophisticated California Ranch home offers over 2,100 sq. ft. of well-designed living space on a lush 14,000+ sq. ft. lot. Walled and gated for privacy, the front yard opens to a charming porch and a welcoming interior that blends comfort, versatility, and timeless character. A formal entry leads into vaulted living and dining rooms with refinished dark oak floors, a fireplace, and walls of glass overlooking the backyard. Skylights throughout bring in natural light, while the living room, sunroom, and primary suite all open to the rear yard, where grassy areas and a flagstone patio surround a freeform pool framed by citrus trees and lush landscaping. The bright kitchen features stainless steel appliances, space for a breakfast table, and views of the front garden and a rare Brentwood vineyard just across the street. Two bathrooms have been tastefully updated, and a third has been completely remodeled. A separate laundry room adds everyday convenience. The oversized den, with vaulted ceilings and matching wood floors, offers exceptional flexibility as a gym, studio, media room, or second living area (or a possible 4th bedroom). In the bedroom wing, two guest rooms share a Jack and Jill bath, while the spacious primary suite features vaulted ceilings, a fireplace, walk-in closet, and en-suite bath. Additional highlights include central HVAC, dual-pane windows, recessed lighting, and a two-car garage with direct entry. Private, peaceful, and surrounded by greenery, this is a special retreat in Mandeville Canyon. ***This is a short sale, subject to lender approval***
