A beautiful and sophisticated home in an excellent pocket of Van Nuys near exclusive Midvale Estates, with high quality finishes, and loads of character. Once you enter the cherry red door, you will truly appreciate, the beamed smooth ceilings, the rich hardwood floors, the inviting angled fireplace, the generous room sizes and the french doors beckoning you to an exceptionally beautiful, lush, serene oasis of a backyard with palms, fruit trees, flowers and a large sparkling pool reminiscent of a small country hotel somewhere in the Mediterranean. The French country style kitchen has beautiful cabinets with gleaming hardware, stainless appliances, luscious travertine floors and granite countertops. There is a breakfast bar and a cozy but spacious dining area in addition to the formal dining, that boasts a gorgeous skylight flooding the space with light. If you like European country homes with a story to tell, you are sure to love this one.
