Situated on just over an acre within the Sherman Oaks neighborhood, the home showcases tasteful landscaping, a side-entry 2-car garage, and a covered entryway. Offering a total of 4-bedrooms and 3-baths with 2,844 SqFt of space, the home is split into two levels that provide plenty of natural light, privacy, and extras throughout.
