Tucked Behind Private Gates in the Heart of Sherman Oaks: A Light-Filled 3 Bedroom Home With a Flexible Bonus StudioBehind bougainvillea-lined gates on one of Sherman Oaks' perfectly situated location, sits a home that feels like an exhale. This is a 3 bed, 2 bath single-family residence 1,911 sq. ft., and it lives beautifully as a private retreat just steps from Ventura Boulevard, premier dining, shopping, cafes, wellness studios, and the highly sought-after Dixie Canyon Community Charter School.Inside, an updated chef's kitchen anchors the main living space with stainless steel appliances, custom cabinetry, and a built-in refrigerator. Bright windows pull natural light deep into the rooms and give the whole home a warm, serene feel. French doors off the primary suite open to a backyard that genuinely surprises people, with mature greenery, colorful blooms, intimate sitting areas, and flexible space made for entertaining, yoga, meditation, or simply slowing down.What makes this property rare is how adaptable it is.

It also converts back to a classic single-family floor plan with ease, so you get the flexibility without locking yourself into it. A bonus detached studio 400 sq. ft. with its own kitchen and bath (non-permitted space) adds even more room to stretch, whether that becomes a creative studio, a home office, or a private guest space.The home has been well cared for, with leased solar, a newer furnace, fresh paint, and gated off-street parking. It carries real charm in one of the Valley's most desirable neighborhoods, and the kind of versatility that's genuinely hard to find at this price point.A truly special home, and a rare one. Come see it for yourself.
