A charming family home in the heart of the San Fernando Valley – it's the perfect choice for anyone looking for a laid-back neighbourhood away from the hustle and bustle of the big city, with the added convenience of easy access when you need it. On entry, you're greeted by the open-plan living room and kitchen. There are plenty of nice touches, including elegant marble worktops, a solid concrete dining table and a fireplace for cosy nights in. Step through the sliding doors, and you're in the fully enclosed garden, which is perfect for those planning on bringing their furry friends along, while Valley Glen Community Park is a fifteen-minute walk away when they need to stretch their legs. Of the bright and breezy bedrooms, only the master suite enjoys direct access to the outdoors, but the rest have large windows that let in plenty of natural light. While Van Nuys is primarily residential, you've got a few neighbourhood gems to pick from if you don't fancy cooking, including Mercado Buenos Aires and Ayce Gogi. However, you're just a fifteen-minute drive into Hollywood (LA's notorious traffic permitting), and from here, the rest of LA is your oyster.
