Set behind private gates in the heart of Sherman Oaks, this two-story residence offers a sense of arrival, with soaring interiors, timeless architectural details and a backyard that feels worlds away from the city. From mornings filled with natural light to evenings spent beside the pool, every space invites you to slow down, settle in and stay awhile. A curved staircase, blonde hardwood floors and soaring windows set the tone, while a columned cast-stone fireplace anchors the dramatic living room. The formal dining room opens to the pool and patio, while the kitchen pairs a waterfall-edge island with custom cabinetry, a terracotta tile backsplash and stainless steel appliances, including double wall ovens. Just beyond, the family room features a second cast-stone fireplace and French doors leading outdoors. Upstairs, the primary suite offers a private sitting area and balcony, complemented by a spa-inspired bath with a freestanding soaking tub, glass-enclosed shower and dual vanities. Additional bedrooms and a light-filled gallery landing complete the upper level. Outside, a pool and spa with a cascading waterfall, pergola-covered dining area, and established greenery create a setting made for long afternoons and evenings with friends. With approximately 2,970 square feet, a private gated entry and a prime Sherman Oaks location near shopping, dining and schools, this home brings together comfort, character and the best of California living.
