Set in one of Sherman Oaks' most desirable neighborhoods, this South of the Blvd Mediterranean estate offers exceptional scale, volume and versatility, with 5 bedrooms, a secluded office and expansive living spaces designed for comfort and entertaining. A circular driveway framed by mature palms creates a dramatic arrival, leading to a covered entry and grand double doors that open to a soaring two-story foyer. High ceilings, generously proportioned rooms and newer wide-plank hardwood floors throughout the lower level give the home an open, elevated feel. The main level features a fireplace-warmed living room, step-down formal dining room and an expansive chef's kitchen with a large center island, stainless steel appliances, breakfast bar and walk-in pantry. The adjoining living spaces flow easily for any kind of gathering, large or small. Upstairs are four bedrooms, including an oversized private retreat, complete with a spacious sitting area and double-sided fireplace shared with the spa-inspired bath. The primary bath features dual vanities, a glass-enclosed shower, soaking tub and 2 generous walk-in closets. Two additional bedrooms share a Jack-and-Jill bath and the 4th bedroom on the upper level is ensuite. The laundry room is also on this level for convenience. A spacious fifth bedroom with its own private bath is located on the lower level, ideal for guests, extended family or a second office. The private backyard has been thoughtfully redesigned for SoCal living and entertaining, with multiple patio areas, a beautiful pool and spa, outdoor shower, projector screen and low-maintenance landscaping. Solar panels add energy efficiency, while the combination of soaring ceilings, voluminous interiors and expansive indoor-outdoor spaces gives the home a rare sense of scale. Openness and space but still feeling warm and inviting, this is a perfect blend of comfort, livability and a true sense of home.
