Two Homes on One Lot! Masterfully Updated Spanish Main House + Brand-New ADU! Welcome to a premier NW Glendale estate where classic architectural romance meets unparalleled versatility. Tucked into the highly coveted Kenneth Village neighborhood, this courtyard Spanish home blends timeless character with high-end… modern conveniences across two exceptional structures. The Main Residence (3 BD / 2 BA | ~1,986 SF): Pass through dramatic archways and a tranquil front courtyard with a water fountain to enter a gracious foyer. The expansive living room serves as a stunning centerpiece, boasting a majestic plaster-beamed ceiling, a vibrant fireplace, a large bay window, and integrated audio. Across the foyer, the elegant formal dining room features period coved ceilings. The true heart of the home is the vaulted-ceiling chef’s kitchen—bathed in natural light from dual skylights and equipped with premium stone counters, high-end stainless and integrated Thermador appliances, a hidden refrigerator, and hidden laundry. Three generously sized bedrooms all feature massive walk-in closets, including a private en-suite. The Brand-New ADU (2 BD / 2 BA | 969 SF): Completely detached, fully permitted, and currently rented out, this massive secondary residence is a game-changer. Offering a bright, open-concept layout, it features a spacious living area that flows seamlessly into a contemporary kitchen, recessed lighting, modern laminate flooring, and two pristine bathrooms. The ADU features a solar system that has been paid in full. Upgrades & Location: Enjoy absolute peace of mind with extensive infrastructural updates: dual-pane windows, newer HVAC, copper plumbing, ABS waste lines, and a newer roof beneath the gorgeous original Spanish tile. The property is equipped with a Ring video surveillance and alarm system. Outside, the home offers seamless indoor-outdoor flow, perfect for al fresco dining in the courtyard. Located just 3 blocks from the boutique shops of Kenneth Village, minutes from Mark Keppel Magnet, Toll Middle, and Hoover High Schools, The Americana at Brand, and easy freeway access. Read More
