6545 Murietta Avenue

One of the most often-used phrases in real estate copy is "chef's kitchen." Well folks, in this charming 1948 Cape Cod, re-interpreted for the 21st century, by Food & Magnolia Network chef/host/food stylist, and her husband, it truly is a chef's kitchen, as many of her videos have been shot in it. Their tasteful,… loving, whole-house 2016 remodel included: a new Kitchen (of course) with new cabinetry, Quartz & Butcher Block counters, stainless Samsung appliances & a breakfast bar. The kitchen opens to a cozy Den with a fireplace, dry bar & vaulted wood beamed ceilings. There's also a fireplace in the Living Room which has been re-built including a custom mantel. The ensuite primary bedroom and a bonus room, which could be an office, nursery, guest or 4th bedroom (no closet) & Powder Room occupy the remainder of the 1st floor, with 2 additional bedrooms and a bath on the second. Other improvements included: all new systems, bathrooms, Milgard dual-pane windows, paint, sewer line, fencing, attic insulation, ADT security system & front & rear landscaping/irrigation. The piece de resistance is the Napa-like backyard with new saltwater pool, hot tub, wood deck, flagstone patio, gravel & decomposed granite pathways, gas firepit, irrigated horse-trough vegetable beds & the conversion of the detached garage to a working screening room/pool house with a fridge, split HVAC & French doors, which acts as a Summer den for them. With original wood floors throughout the house (except new ones in the Kitchen), and a wonderful circular floorplan & great indoor/outdoor flow, this is one warm, welcoming & turnkey home, not to mention an entertainer's paradise! Convenient to Studio City & Sherman Oaks' top restaurants & shops and the new NOHO West mixed-use lifestyle center. Sellers will need 30-60-day leaseback. Read More
