If LOCATION and LOT SIZE is a must, this home's got it!!! First time on the market in over 40 years. .. Located in one of the most sought after areas in NW Glendale this home has a large 17,000+ sq. ft. usable lot with an incredible setback. Directly across the street from the * Gone with the Wind * House! An impressive entry extends to a larger living room with fireplace. Separate dining room. Kitchen extends to breakfast area. Large master suite with its own private bath. Oversize basement with an abundance of storage space (ideal as a wine cellar). Included in the square footage is a separate family room (not permitted - appx. 400 sq. ft). 2 zone central air conditioning/heating. Separate detached 2-car garage. This home needs updating throughout, but it has incredible potential for anyone who admires this location and large lot size. A must see!
