Beautifully updated North Hills home, shear wall retrofitted in 1994! This home features thoughtful improvements for entertainment, a lush backyard retreat, and a unique connection to Hollywood history. Step inside to find rich real wood flooring throughout the downstairs living areas, smooth ceilings, fresh interior paint, and a comfortable, welcoming layout. Both the living room and family room feature fireplaces, creating inviting spaces for relaxing and gathering. The spacious family room was added to the rear of the home with permits and features a vaulted ceiling, providing an expansive area for entertaining, movie nights, or everyday enjoyment. Upstairs features newly installed laminate flooring and baseboards, creating a clean and refreshed look throughout the second level. The remodeled kitchen is designed for both everyday living and entertaining, with stainless steel appliances, a double oven, soft-close drawers and cabinetry, and a full-height subway tile backsplash that adds a polished finishing touch. A downstairs den or office provides valuable flexibility and could potentially serve as a fourth bedroom, guest room, playroom, or home workspace. The custom-built bar was designed as an ideal setting for entertainment and special guests. The backyard is a true highlight, featuring lush green landscaping, several mature fruit-producing trees, and an outdoor BBQ island equipped with a working sink and refrigerator. It is an ideal setting for weekend gatherings, outdoor dining, gardening, or simply enjoying Southern California living. Additional improvements include a newer 200-amp electrical panel installed approximately two years ago, an air-conditioning condenser installed in 2017, and updated vanity lighting. Adding to the home’s distinctive character, the previous owner was a noted Hollywood costume designer who worked with celebrities including John Wayne. “The Duke” himself visited the home for dinner among other celebrities throughout time, adding a fascinating touch of classic Hollywood history to the property. With its thoughtful upgrades, versatile floor plan, multiple entertaining spaces, permitted family-room addition, and memorable Hollywood story, this move-in-ready North Hills home is one buyers will want to experience in person.
