The home's MCM bones are the real story: soaring picture windows that frame the lush greenery, exposed brick, original hardwood and slate floors, built-in shelving, skylights, and an open kitchen-to-dining flow that feels both generous and effortless. The kitchen has been thoughtfully updated with new quartz countertops, a fresh tile backsplash, and newly painted cabinetry — a space that honors the era while meeting today's expectations. New lighting including updated fixtures in the living, dining, and kitchen areas and recessed lighting in the entry spaces. Fresh interior paint top to bottom. A new standing seam metal roof and gutters (2023) mean the big-ticket items are done. Heat pump and gas furnace keep the home comfortable year round.Outside, the flat backyard with paver patio and gardens is a genuine surprise for the West Hills — private, usable, and beautiful.
