The charm of the 1940's comes together with today's upgrades in this beautiful home on a tree lined street in Sherman Oaks. From the classic Criss-Cross windows to the built-in cabinetry you feel the warmth of the 1940s coming through. The living and dining areas share a mantled wood burning fireplace. The updated kitchen highlights the polished butcher block counters, garden window and stainless appliances. The adjacent family room opens up to the patio that is a perfect spot to enjoy your morning coffee or an evening with friends and cocktails. Two bedrooms are downstairs with a shared bathroom (the one downstairs bedroom was used as an office and does not have a closet). The generous primary suite is upstairs and has large closet with organizers. The primary bathroom enjoys a spa tub, newer cabinetry and recently installed shower. The additional bedrooms are spacious and share the 3rd bathroom. Enter the gated backyard and notice the newer driveway with pavers, newer wooden fence and refreshed landscaping (the roof was redone too- to the delight of the insurance company!). The backyard also has a built-in BBQ, grassy area and detached garage that could convert to an ADU or creative space. Centrally located and close to shopping, restaurants and park.
