Welcome to your private Santa Susana Knolls retreat, where sweeping valley and mountain views meet peaceful surroundings and an inviting, spacious floor plan. Double front doors open to an impressive great room featuring soaring vaulted ceilings, setting the tone for this distinctive 4-bedroom, 3.5-bath home. Continue in past the grand curved staircase, there is a separate, generously sized dining room, creating an ideal flow for both everyday living and entertaining. The heart of the home is the well-appointed kitchen, featuring a Wolf 6-burner+griddle+double oven range, neutral granite countertops with beautiful gray tones, a large pantry, and a picture window framing the oak trees and hills beyond. A breakfast bar opens to the expansive living area, making it easy to stay connected with family and guests. The living room features a striking stone-surround fireplace, abundant windows overlooking the northwestern hills, and French doors opening to a private, shaded patio. The thoughtfully designed main level also offers a spacious bedroom and full bathroom, providing an excellent option for multigenerational living, guests, a home office, nanny, caretaker, or teenager. A convenient powder room is also located downstairs. Upstairs, two additional bedrooms share a full bathroom, while the spacious primary suite offers a true private retreat. Enjoy a cozy stone-surround fireplace, oversized walk-in closet with its own window, dual vanity, jetted tub, and separate walk-in shower. French doors open directly to the large viewing deck, where you can sip morning coffee while listening to the birds, enjoy the peaceful hillsides, or take in distant city lights under the stars. The deck also features a separate hallway entrance for added convenience. A stair lift is currently installed along the curved staircase and may be removed by the new owner. Step outside to enjoy the natural beauty and privacy of the property, with mature oak trees providing shade, a variety of fruit trees including citrus and pomegranate, a private patio, and a generous viewing deck oriented toward the northwest. Tucked away in the tranquil Knolls yet conveniently close to everyday amenities and the greater Los Angeles area, this home offers a rare combination of serenity, space, views, and accessibility.

East Simi Valley, located between the Santa Susana Mountains and the Arroyo Simi Greenway, is a residential and commuter-friendly Simi Valley neighborhood with hillside views and broad, sunlit streets. The neighborhood’s energy concentrates around the Sycamore Drive and Cochran Street corridor, where local eateries, service storefronts, and daily-errand stops cluster in a steady rhythm. Housing leans toward ranch-style and late-20th-century tract homes, often with tidy yards and garage-forward facades. The Arroyo Simi Bike Path threads through the area, shaping a walk-and-roll routine between parks and schools. Rancho Simi Community Park and the Simi Valley Town Center add open lawns, sports courts, and indoor shopping under one roof. The Ronald Reagan Presidential Library and Museum, set above the valley, anchors the area’s cultural calendar and skyline.
