Magical Mid-Century in Lower Mandeville. Tucked away on a hidden, private lane in lower Mandeville Canyon, this sublime mid-century retreat unfolds across nearly 32k square feet of lush, largely flat land. Beyond the gated entrance, a canopy of mature sycamore and blooming crepe myrtle frame the sweeping motor court, surrounded by whimsical gardens and copper-hued flagstone paths that guide you to this nature lovers sanctuary. Built in 1954 and reminiscent of a classic Cliff May California Ranch, the home's two-wing single-story layout offers four bedrooms and three baths, all thoughtfully connected by an indoor/outdoor flow that embrace its serene setting. The main living area features warm brick floors, a pitched wood beam ceiling, a striking fireplace, and expansive sliders that open to the terraced gardens and idyllic patios beyond. A charming breakfast room with built-in buffet and original brick BBQ joins with a beautifully upgraded kitchen with stainless steel appliances, Silestone counters, and recessed lighting. Off the kitchen, the spacious laundry room and ample storage lead to an oversized two-car garage perfect for a creative studio or workshop. A long gallery hall, rich with natural light, leads to three cheerful guestrooms and two bathrooms. At the end, the private primary suite offers a true retreat featuring vaulted ceilings, a brick fireplance, dual vanities, and walls of glass revealing the gardens outside. The grounds are truly enchanting, a celebration of color, creativity, and nature. Designed and lovingly cultivated by the current owners, the gardens include raised blueberry beds, a charming hen house, hydrangeas, camellias, rose bushes, and a vibrant array of exotic blooms, all framed by split-rail fencing and mature trees. This extraordinary property offers a rare opportunity to live in harmony with nature in one of Brentwood's most coveted canyons, ideal for a discerning homeowner looking to enjoy as-is, reimagine, or thoughtfully develop.
