A classic 1947 South Sunland ranch with 3 BED / 2 BATH and 1,597sf, this home carries warmth, character, and a distinctly old California sensibility, with the foothills close by. A generous shade tree frames the front approach, while the pale green exterior and covered entry create a welcoming first impression.Inside, the home offers a lovely balance of light, texture, and function. The front living room is bright and composed, with original wood floors, broad windows, and a decorative fireplace anchoring the space. The richly paneled family room brings warmth and depth, with wood-clad walls, garden views, and an intimate atmosphere. Between the two, the dining room connects the home's more formal front rooms with the kitchen and family room, creating an easy, natural flow.The original kitchen retains its period character, with warm wood cabinetry, generous storage, garden-facing windows, and newer appliances that bring everyday ease. The sleeping quarters are thoughtfully separated from the home's social spaces, giving this part of the house a quieter, more private atmosphere. The bedrooms are calm and nicely scaled, with wood floors and soft natural light, while the primary bedroom includes an ensuite bathroom and generous closet space, including a walk-in closet.The rear garden is one of the property's quiet pleasures. Mature trees create shade and privacy, while patios and lawn offer space for dining, play, gardening, or simply enjoying the foothill setting. Recent improvements include a new roof, updated electrical, and a new heating and cooling system, offering important upgrades while preserving the home's original character. An attached two-car garage adds everyday convenience and valuable storage.The home is conveniently located near local hiking trails, Sunland Recreation Center, and Apperson Elementary School for Advanced Studies, placing everyday recreation and neighborhood resources close at hand. A warm and deeply livable residence with charm, comfort, and a true sense of place.
