Come for the classic mid-century California bungalow vibes and stay for the detached, converted garage that is fully finished as a bonus room/office! Enter the home to find an oversized bay window giving the light-filled living space a feeling of airy openness. The original, narrow-planked hardwood floors give depth and character to the home, while the open kitchen and formal dining area allow for an energetic and functional space to host gatherings or to enjoy the practical simplicities of daily life. A central hallway leads you to two of the three bedrooms, each equipped with ample closet space and loads of light. Lemay Place is one of the neighborhood's most lushly tree-lined streets, 17551 mirrors this lavish foliage in the back with its private mature trees that offer its residents abundant shade and visual dimension. Centrally located near the 405 and 101 freeways, Encino Town Center, Lake Balboa recreation center, Encino Farmer's Market, and so much more! There is no doubt this home is the Lake Balboa home you have been waiting for!
