About this home
This charming two-unit property (each with its own address: 5919 + 5921) is nestled in one of the most desirable parts of Valley Glen, just blocks away from Sherman Oaks. It's an ideal opportunity for a variety of living situations-live in one unit and rent out the other, use it as a full investment property, or create a perfect multi-generational living setup. The front home has 883 sqft and is brimming with character and vintage charm. With two bedrooms and one bathroom, it offers a picturesque aesthetic. The living room features high cathedral ceilings adorned with wood beams, a fireplace framed by sconces, and a stained glass window above the mantel. The cozy dining room includes built-in cabinets with glass doors, and the home includes some hardwood floors and moldings throughout. Both the kitchen and bathroom have some tile detailing. The kitchen-with an oversized window-overlooks the charming yard and connects to a laundry area with washer and dryer. The front house opens to a private, fenced yard that feels like a secret garden. Its filled with an impressive variety of vegetables and fruit trees, including Meyer lemon, lime, blood orange and pomegranate trees, along with snap peas, asparagus, corn, tomatoes, raspberries, plums, avocados and blackberries. Landscaping includes red roses, wisteria, calla lilies, lavender, clementines, and white bird of paradise. Jasmine and morning glory climb the fence line, while wine grapes-Chardonnay, Zinfandel, and Cabernet-add to the idyllic setting. At the rear of the property sits a newer one-bedroom, one-bathroom home that is completely private and has 547 sqft. Its been completely remodeled and includes a sleek kitchen with newer appliances, custom cabinetry, and granite countertops. The bathroom features a large glass-enclosed shower with a tiled interior and built-in seating bench. Outside, the private Zen garden and patio are fully gated. Whether you're looking for a charming personal residence with rental income, a smart investment property, or a comfortable solution for extended family living, this exceptional property checks all the boxes.
