Welcome to a warm Lake Balboa home with an easy, low-maintenance lifestyle and a smart focus on long-term savings. Nestled at the end of a quiet cul-de-sac, this single-story layout features an open living area centered around a remodeled kitchen with a peninsula that opens to the living room. White… Read More shaker cabinets, quartz countertops, and stainless steel appliances provide a clean, modern look with plenty of prep space and storage, making everyday cooking and entertaining feel effortless. Just off the main living area, a step-down den with cozy plush carpet instantly becomes the favorite place to unwind. Its flexible layout works as a second living space, media room, or play area, and it’s complemented by a separate laundry room with extra storage, perfect for folding clothes while watching a show or a game, or keeping an eye on family activities. Paired with owned solar that’s already covering electricity costs, the home delivers monthly savings and year-round comfort. The primary bedroom maintains its original footprint but has been upgraded with a true walk-in closet, offering added storage and organization rarely found at this price point. Two additional bedrooms provide flexibility for family, guests, or remote work, while the updated bathroom and single-story design keep daily living simple and accessible. The outdoor space has been thoughtfully xeriscaped to keep upkeep minimal and costs low, giving you a clean, usable yard that’s perfect for barbecues, cozy seating areas, and pets. The detached garage offers flexibility for storage, a workshop, a gym, or a future creative conversion if desired, without it being the primary focus of the lot. The cul-de-sac location and efficient yard layout naturally reduce maintenance while offering a peaceful setting for outdoor living. Located near Lake Balboa Park, the golf course, dog park, Orange Line transit, local schools, grocery stores, and dining spots, everyday errands and weekend fun are all close by. Quick freeway access to both the 405 and 101 puts more of LA within your commute. If you’re looking for a well-kept home with smart energy savings, a remodeled kitchen, cozy step-down den, walk-in closet, and low-maintenance outdoor space in a quiet cul-de-sac, this Lake Balboa spot is an easy choice.
