Property Description
Step back in time with this enchanting 1924 Storybook home, nestled on a generous 10,226 sq ft lot in the coveted Verdugo Woodlands. This 3-bedroom, 2-bathroom Tudor-style residence is a rare opportunity to own a piece of architectural history, where every detail tells a tale.
You'll be captivated by the striking Tudor Revival elements, from the steeply pitched rooflines to the whimsical windows and Disneyesque front door. The magnificent inglenook fireplace, with its hand-carved benches, is a perfect spot for cozy gatherings.
The sprawling grand living room boasts soaring cathedral ceilings. The original restored windows bathe the interiors in natural light, and the refinished wood floors complement the home's character. Each of the 3 bedrooms offers unique charm, with the primary bedroom featuring a dedicated vanity/dressing room. The kitchen, laundry, and bathrooms have new linoleum flooring, new faucets, reglazed sinks/tubs, and period-appropriate wallpaper, all while retaining authentic vintage appeal.
Significant functional improvements include new copper plumbing, new wiring, a new electrical panel, and new HVAC split-room system for year round comfort. The 2-car garage (with EV charger) features an attached attic room, ideal for storage or a home office, and a new electric garage door.
Outside, the property unfolds into a serene fairytale wonderland. Numerous patios and meandering pathways wind through an idyllically private backyard. The expansive, forest-like grounds provide lovely tree and mountain views, a perfect setting for al fresco dining or simply relaxing amidst nature.
This property holds significant appeal for historic preservation, with the city approval process for Mills Act historical designation already in place, meaning it will soon be eligible for a substantial property tax reduction!
Don't miss this rare opportunity to own a truly unique gem of Glendale's architectural heritage. 1855 Verdugo Knolls Drive isn't just a house; it's a living story, thoughtfully preserved and meticulously updated, awaiting its next chapter.
