Property Description

Set within one of Sherman Oaks' most charming residential pockets, this striking black architectural residence evokes the feeling of a secluded Big Sur retreat, warm, dramatic, and deeply connected to nature while remaining moments from the energy of Ventura Boulevard. Positioned on an expansive 8,500SF lot, the home is thoughtfully centered around a private courtyard, where nearly every room opens outward through French doors, creating a seamless indoor-outdoor flow filled with light, air, and greenery. Inside, soaring vaulted wood-clad ceilings, skylights, and rich organic textures create a space that feels expansive and intimate. The architecture carries the soul of a modern cabin retreat, with dramatic volume, natural materials, and dual fireplaces anchoring both the living room and primary suite. Sunlight filters beautifully throughout the home, enhancing the warmth of the wood interiors and creating an atmosphere that feels calm andgrounded. The newly reimagined kitchen blends elevated design with everyday functionality, featuring white oak cabinetry, a large center island, designer tile work, and direct connection to the home's entertaining spaces. Significant infrastructure upgrades completed by the current owner include a new roof, new HVAC systems, and new flooring throughout offering a home that feels as considered behind the walls as it does aesthetically. The primary suite serves as its own private sanctuary with vaulted ceilings, built-ins, fireplace, en-suite bath, and direct courtyard access, while a newly added sauna further enhances the home's retreat-like sensibility. Outside, the scale of the grounds offers rare flexibility and future potential. The sprawling backyard has ample room for a swimmer's pool, guest house, gardens, or the creation of a true compound-style environment. Off the garage, an additional bonus structure and workshop space presents exciting possibilities for a future ADU, creative studio, wellness space, office, or poolside cabana. Surrounded by beautiful ranch and architectural homes on a quiet tree-lined street in the coveted Kester Elementary district, this is a rare opportunity to own a soulful architectural property that feels worlds away yet remains centrally located with easy access to the best of Los Angeles.
