I meant to post this when it first hit the market a few weeks ago, but it somehow slipped through the cracks. What caught my eye was a charming mid-century ranch home located a stone’s throw from the 101 in Encino (I have yet to visit the house, but I don’t think traffic noise is an issue). I like the indoor/outdoor flow, big backyard with pool (the lot is 10,227 square feet), high beam ceilings, skylights and dual fireplaces.

I also love this cozy den – I really feel that if your home was built in 1950, you really should have a great family den!

It’s only been on the market a few weeks, but there’s already been a price drop. Might be a good time to make an offer. If you want to check it out drop me an email or call me at 323-775-6305.

Here’s a great mid-century hitting the market for the first time ever. Located in the Royal Woods neighborhood of Sherman Oaks, this home is like stepping back in time to the 1950s (it was built in 1954). A number of trademark mid-century touches can be found – sliding room dividers, pocket doors, questionable paint choices – that will make this well-preserved home very appealing to many buyers.

With a pool, 5 bedrooms and over 2,500 square feet you get a lot of house for the money, but what will it cost to update it for modern living?

I’m looking forward to checking this home out in person.
