Everything about this Lake Balboa home screams, comfy, cozy, and inviting. And with this entertainer's dream backyard, you will definitely be inviting people over! When you first enter the home, you are welcomed into the open-concept dining and living room. Having been remodeled to add more space to the living area, there is plenty of room to relax and cozy up with your favorite binge-worthy TV show! Right down the hall are a bathroom (conveniently located for guests) and both bedrooms. Use them as two bedrooms or turn one into a work-from-home office! The primary suite at the end of the hall is large enough to fit even your biggest, California King bed with room to spare. With not one, but TWO mirrored closets in the primary, no need to fight over closet space-- there is plenty to go around! Connected to the primary is a beautifully remodeled, spa-like ensuite bathroom, with a roomy shower and stacked Washer and Dryer! Laundry is beyond easy with this placement, just throw in a load and your closet is just around the corner! But my favorite perk here is the private back door to the backyard located right off Primary Ensuite! Imagine it now-- You are having a gathering of friends and family in the backyard and enjoying some BBQ on the grill (fear not, we will get into that soon!). No need to go through the kitchen and through the house to get to the bathroom, just close the Primary bathroom door from the room and you have a bathroom right there for your backyard hangs! Now, let's talk about this backyard. Not only does it have a covered patio space, but it also has a full backyard bar with a built-in BBQ and a GORGEOUS firepit. You will truly be the Hostess With The Mostest in this backyard paradise! But hold your horses, because that is not all! Right in the backyard is a fully converted garage that would make the PERFECT home office or studio. It has recessed lighting, and is fully drywalled! The opportunities with this flex space abound. Hungry for more? Head back into the house through the back door off the kitchen/dining nook and whip up some delicious treats. With 3 full windows in this kitchen, you can even enjoy the lovely SoCal sun while you're at it! This kitchen has all stainless steel appliances, and a perfect setup for a darling breakfast nook by the back door.When you aren't relaxing inside or enjoying drinks in your lovely new backyard, head over to Xochipilla Taco Bar for some delicious tacos and mouthwatering churros. Or take a stroll to the lovely Japanese Gardens just 1 mile away. With close access to both the 405 and the 101, you can even make the trip to the beach or downtown with ease. Don't wait, this cutie won't last long! Contact Kathleen today to see it for yourself.
