Welcome to this beautifully updated split-level townhome in highly sought-after gated Tarzana Villa North. From the landscaped, secured entrance, to the home’s thoughtful multi-level layout and abundant natural light, it offers rare privacy and comfort.   A spacious tiled private patio extends your living space, ideal for morning coffee, outdoor dining, or relaxing outdoors. Inside, you’ll find high ceilings, rich hardwood floors, custom plantation shutters, central air and heat, modern Minka Aire ceiling fans in every room, custom wrought-iron stair railings, wainscoting (wall paneling), crown molding, and crisp white walls for an airy, designer feel across all levels. The elevated dining area overlooks the large living room, creating an open, architectural flow.  The kitchen offers generous granite counters, white cabinetry, a wide breakfast bar, custom millwork, and an included Jenn-Air refrigerator in excellent working condition. A spotless, beautifully maintained powder room completes the main level. All appliances, including a near -new matching washer and dryer (pictured) are included. The existing fireplace is decorative; a buyer may choose to replace it or install an electric or modern gas unit.   Upstairs, the oversized primary suite easily fits a king bed and seating area.  It features a large walk-in closet with full custom-built-ins, and premium Berber-style carpet.  The ensuite bath includes a long double-sink vanity, separate makeup area, and a private water closet with walk-in shower. The second bedroom has high ceilings, a custom cedar-lined closet with added cabinetry and a balcony overlooking the pool – a rare highlight in this community.  A beautifully tiled full bath with natural stone and a tub shower combo serves this room and the upstairs hall.  Recent upgrades include: • New washer and dryer. • New water heater. • New Genie garage door opener with 3 remotes. • New Nest smart thermostat with wi-fi. • New AC installed in 2017   Everyday conveniences set this home apart: mail is delivered directly into the garage via mailslot, and trash pickup is right outside your garage door - no long walks to mailbox clusters or shared trash areas. The building is gated and secure with well-kept grounds.
