California cool in prime North Hollywood! Surrounded by a lush drought tolerant garden, this updated bungalow is the perfect urban oasis. Lovingly reimagined by the current owners, this private retreat is about as plug and play as it gets, with loads of improvements to the systems and primary components. The front entry features a built-in console table and coat closet, the ideal drop spot for the contents of your day. The large living room with dual paned windows and bamboo floors is roomy enough to host a proper gathering and flows seamlessly into the dining room with custom built-ins. The kitchen has been updated with new cabinets, Caesarstone counters, stainless steel appliances and direct access to the driveway and garden. Two well sized bedrooms with ample closet space and a remodeled full bath are accessed from a center hallway. The living spaces extend to the back yard with two covered patios under the shade of a mature avocado tree, which bears fruit most of the year. The verdant yard is framed by orange, fig and kumquat trees and is covered by an irrigation system. The finished garage features polished concrete floors and a mini-split system, allowing for a work from home option, gym or rumpus room. A separate storage shed with electrical is ready to house your over flow items, holiday decor and luggage. Located a block up from the Chandler bike path and a short distance from dining and shopping in the NoHo Arts District, and highly regarded Toluca Lake Elementary. This home is a rare gem you won't want to miss!
