Private French Country Hideaway in the hills of Sherman Oaks! 3 Bed | 2 Bath | Den + basement ~2,800 Sq Ft | Nearly ½ Acre. At the top of Ventura Canyon Ave, the 300-foot gated driveway leads to a single home - tucked into the hillside, surrounded by open sky, mature trees, and distant views. This secluded 3-bedroom, 2-bath home with den and semi-finished basement offers nearly 2,800 square feet of handcrafted charm and thoughtful design. Inspired by French country living, it features custom cabinetry and floors made from reclaimed old-growth yellow pine, antique French pavers, wood-beamed ceilings, and a classic brick fireplace. The open kitchen blends function and beauty with a long marble island and breakfast bar, Viking stove, Sub-Zero fridge, antique Portuguese tile backsplash, and a wet bar with wine fridge. The vaulted-ceiling living room is surrounded by dual-pane windows, bringing in light and framing panoramic views of the Valley, nearby hills, and the San Gabriel mountains. Bedrooms are situated for privacy, each with outdoor access and generous closet space. The primary suite features a walk-in closet and a marble tiled bath with soaking tub and an oversized shower. The basement offers a peaceful workspace, wine cellar, or studio, with a 14 foot ceiling. Step outside to unwind in the new hot tub, relax beneath the oversized wood-beamed carport, or dine al fresco on one of several patios. Set on nearly half an acre with almost no visible neighbors, the property offers rare seclusion, just minutes from studios, canyon trails, and the dining and markets of Ventura Blvd. Other Highlights include: Insulated roof, tankless water heater, whole-home water filtration system, seven ceiling fans, two-car garage, two-car carport, and generous driveway parking with ample space for an RV. Feels like you’re in the country, yet still close to everything.
