Property Description

Beautifully renovated single-story Lake Balboa home situated at the end of a cul-de-sac, offering 3 bedrooms, 2 baths and approximately 1,710 sq. ft. of living space on an expansive 8,649 sq. ft. lot. A rustic brick walkway lined with pathway lighting leads to a classic architectural stone facade and front entry accented by an illuminated address marker. The living room is anchored by a welcoming fireplace and flows into a spacious step-down family/bonus room, where French doors bring in natural light and open directly to the backyard. Wide-plank rigid-core luxury vinyl plank flooring, new textured walls, fresh paint and dimmable recessed lighting throughout create a clean, refreshed interior. The remodeled kitchen provides abundant custom cabinetry, quartz countertops, updated appliances and generous prep space. The primary suite is complemented by a large walk-in closet with motion-activated lighting and an upgraded ensuite bath with an oversized glass-enclosed shower. Two additional bedrooms offer flexibility for family, guests or a home office and are equipped with modern ceiling fans, each with its own remote control for added convenience. The guest bath is enhanced by a new vanity and contemporary finishes. Outside, the private backyard boasts freshly laid sod, a charming pergola, two mature lime trees and brand new fencing. Whether enjoying morning coffee, outdoor dining beneath the pergola, weekend gatherings or gardening, the ample outdoor space provides plenty of room to enjoy Southern California living. The property also offers a versatile gated side yard well suited for pets, recreation, storage and a variety of lifestyle needs, along with an extended front yard area framed by four stately palm trees. Additional improvements and features include a new roof, attic fan, central heating and air conditioning that was recently serviced, new garage door, tracks and automatic opener, new water heater housed within its new metal enclosure, dual-pane windows, new interior doors, a designated laundry room with custom-fitted hookups, and dedicated data connections in the primary bedroom and family/bonus room.
