Set on a quiet, tree-lined street with no through traffic, this home offers a rare sense of peace, privacy, and neighborhood connection-while still being just moments from shopping, dining, coffee, and everyday conveniences. Inside, warmth and character define every space. Original details include approximately 80-year-old oak hardwood floors, a stained-glass window, dimensional lumber construction, brick accents, and timeless craftsmanship that together create a home of lasting quality and authenticity. The brick-and-wood kitchen enhances the inviting, grounded feel of the home, while French doors open seamlessly to the backyard, blending indoor comfort with outdoor living. The garden extends the home's livable space into a private outdoor retreat, featuring a generous lawn framed by roses, lavender, hibiscus, and mature, lush greenery. Each spring, a dramatic Wisteria bloom transforms the yard into a truly unforgettable fragrant seasonal display. The detached garage remains fully functional as a true garage offering exceptional versatility for a workshop, car storage, DIY projects, or creative pursuits. With natural breezes flowing through open windows and a location just minutes from NoHo West Shopping Center, Starbucks, Sego Nursery, Great Restaurants, and more, this home offers the perfect balance of everyday convenience and a warm, established neighborhood lifestyle. This is more than a Valley Village Cottage-it's a place with soul, history, and a sense of belonging that you feel the moment you arrive.
