Set back from a tree-lined street in the highly sought-after North of Montana neighborhood, this beautifully renovated, move-in-ready traditional residence with an optional detached guest house blends timeless charm with modern updates throughout. The detached guesthouse is not currently included; it can be added for an additional $1,000 per month and comes with its own kitchen and washer/dryer (if one were to include the guesthouse it would add an additional ~400 square feet and an additional 1 bed and 1 bath). A brick pathway leads through the grassy front lawn to a delightful entry adorned by manicured gardens and blooming flowers. New floors extend from the formal living room, showcasing an attractive brick fireplace and wood-framed picture windows, into the formal dining room with a sliding glass door to the side patio. The adjacent kitchen has been extensively renovated with new appliances, an abundance of cabinetry, under lighting, a waterfall island, and stone backsplash. Bedrooms are spacious, and bathrooms are updated with on-trend fixtures and finishes for modern living. A walk-in closet has custom built-ins, and two rear bedrooms have direct backyard access. Outside, dine alfresco, entertain guests, barbecue, relax, and enjoy warm summer evenings from multiple patio spaces or gather with friends and family around the trellis-topped fire pit. Fresh hardscaping and landscaping, together with privacy hedges and climbing vines, provide the perfect ambiance for laughter and conversation. Additional conveniences include side-by-side laundry central to the bedrooms, new systems throughout, and storage shed. Enjoy close proximity to the numerous boutiques and fine dining options of Santa Monica and Brentwood, all just moments to world-famous beaches, parks, schools, freeways, and the very best of the Westside. Street parking is also easy and abundant. Available for immediate occupancy. Kitchen is virtually staged.
