Far removed from the city life, yet just a few miles away from Burbank and Glendale, is a fantastic home on a 37,251 sq ft lot in a gorgeous gated hillside community. Rarely do homes come on the market in Rancho Verdugo Estates, a hidden gem of a gated neighborhood off Wentworth Street in Shadow Hills. RVE is an equestrian community with welcoming bridle trails adding charm and serenity. Wide streets with lights and underground utilities make this a modern and elegant neighborhood. The home boasts 9 ft ceilings and includes 5 Bdrs & 5 Baths, a large family room connected to the huge kitchen and open floor plan in dining & living room. A beautifully landscaped rear yard offers fruit trees, a rose garden, large grassy area and space to add a pool or horse stall. The handsome kitchen with granite counters, SS Viking appliances and walk in pantry can accommodate a crowd with a 7 ft x 4 ft center island and double ovens. Calling movie enthusiasts! The current owners re-created the living & dining room into a media center with a 133" screen with Dolby Atmos surround sound. These rooms can easily be transformed into a more customary dining and living configuration. A lower level en suite bedroom with 3/4 bath is just what you need for guests or home office. Upstairs is the primary suite and three additional bedrooms with two full bathrooms. The en-suite primary is a large retreat & offers an oversized walk in closet, spa like bathroom with jets & vanity. Enjoy the tranquil views from the balcony. A charming alcove with lovely light completes the upstairs & adds flexible space for a reading area or hobby room. The park-like yard with mature trees has fun ways to relax and entertain - circular fire pit, shaded arbors and large patio area for BBQ and outdoor dining. Parking for three cars is ideal and attached to the home: One, two car garage with Telsa charger and one separate single. A pad for RV or horse trailer is next to the garage. A laundry room with sink & storage is off the kitchen and garage. Shadow Hills is Los Angeles' premier equestrian neighborhood offering true country living with spectacular views of the nearby mountains. Why move to Santa Clarita when you can have this wonderful home & lifestyle so close to nearby cities and freeways.
