About this home
Now Offered at an Exceptional New Price! A great opportunity to own a thoughtfully designed hillside residence in one of Burbank's most desirable neighborhoods. Designed through the vision of the owner, a professional architect, this extensively renovated home blends timeless architecture, quality craftsmanship, and modern functionality. Enter into a welcoming living room anchored by a beautiful fireplace, offering flexible space for formal entertaining or everyday living. The home flows into a spacious breakfast area and a beautifully updated gourmet kitchen with premium finishes, abundant workspace, and an expansive island that opens seamlessly to a generous family room, creating effortless indoor-outdoor living. Step outside to a covered patio with a barbecue area, leading to a beautifully designed backyard featuring an updated sparkling pool and inviting outdoor spaces for relaxing and entertaining. The crown jewel is the private second-story primary suite with soaring ceilings, a wall-mounted fireplace, expansive sliding glass doors, and a private balcony with a hot tub, beautiful hillside views, and stunning sunsets. The suite also features a custom walk-in closet and a spa-inspired bathroom with genuine marble, an air-jetted soaking tub, premium fixtures, and a high-end smart toilet. A fully permitted detached ADU completed in 2020 offers one bedroom, one bathroom, a full kitchen, laundry, HVAC, a separate entrance, and excellent privacy, making it ideal for guests, extended family, a home office, or rental income. Over 90% of the home was remodeled in 2014 (all permitted), including updated electrical and plumbing, roof improvements, an updated pool, and extensive interior and exterior upgrades. A fully permitted second-story addition was completed in 2023. Additional features include smart home technology, central vacuum, hardwired high-speed internet, whole-house water filtration, security cameras, two laundry areas, and an oversized one-and-a-half-car garage with flexible space for a workshop, gym, or storage. Conveniently located near Downtown Burbank, major studios, shopping, dining, parks, hiking trails, golf courses, and with easy access to the 5, 134, and other major freeways. Every detail reflects thoughtful planning, quality construction, and a design focused on comfort, functionality, and everyday living. This property truly checks all the boxes.
Hillside District, located between the Verdugo Mountains and the Burbank Channel, is a residential and hillside Burbank neighborhood with winding streets and canyon views. The character concentrates around Bel Aire Drive near DeBell Golf Club, where trailhead chatter and the quiet rhythm of tee times set the tone. Mid-century ranch homes and view-oriented lots follow the contours, with pockets of equestrian-style properties near the stables. DeBell Golf Club and Castaway anchor the local scene with a classic Burbank feel. Stough Canyon Nature Center frames daily routines with switchback hikes and shaded picnic tables. The geography reads as a buffer of chaparral and backyards, with city lights below and ridgelines above.
