Set at the quiet top of a cul-de-sac in Royal Woods, this three-bedroom, two-bathroom California ranch offers a rare chance to own a classic hillside property with scale, privacy, and unobstructed canyon views in one of Sherman Oaks' most established neighborhoods. The approach, via a private driveway, opens to a gated front yard with mature oaks and generous outdoor space rarely found at this elevation. Inside, original architectural details meet thoughtful updates. A spacious foyer leads into a living room with exposed wood beams, a fireplace, and a wide Pella bay window that captures the long western light. Across the central axis of the home, a formal dining room is anchored by an original cooking alcove, now decorative, set in copper bricks handcrafted by Vance Arganbright, the home's first owner and a noted figure in mid-century design. The kitchen pairs Carrera marble countertops with stainless steel appliances, balancing utility and style. The primary suite includes outdoor access and a walk-in closet, while a separate bonus room (accessed through the laundry and mudroom) is ideal for a gym, office, or creative workspace. A two-car garage and a broad concrete pad provide ample parking and turnaround. Located within the boundaries of the sought-after Sherman Oaks school district and just moments from Ventura Boulevard, this is a rare south-of-the-boulevard offering that combines location, architectural integrity, and long-term value with immediate livability and potential for further refinement. Opportunities with this kind of lot, light, and character do not come to market often.
