Welcome to The Valerio House. Set on a cul-de-sac in Lake Balboa, this warm, character-filled home offers nearly 2,000 square feet, with 3 bedrooms, 2 baths and a generously sized den/office that could serve as a 4th bedroom. There's an easy circular flow between the living room, dining area, and eat-in kitchen. It's the kind of floor plan that just makes sense. And then there are the details that give the house its personality: a gorgeous travertine entry, rich Brazilian chestnut hardwood floors, and a striking, dimensional original Palos Verdes stone fireplace that anchors the living room. :: The eat-in kitchen features newer cabinetry and stainless-steel appliances, with a separate dining area overlooking the yard. The spacious primary bedroom has a walk-in closet, while both bathrooms were recently refreshed with new vanities, countertops, sinks, fixtures, and shower doors. Fresh interior paint in many areas gives the home a crisp, updated feel. :: There's plenty of substance here, too: dual-pane windows, copper plumbing, an updated electrical panel, bolted foundation, EV charger, and a 25-panel solar system. Even the two-car garage connects directly to the house; a small detail that makes a big difference day-to-day. :: Out back is where things get even more magical. Mature trees and layers of established greenery surround the fully gated yard, creating a private, tucked-away setting that feels worlds away. There's an orange tree, plenty of room to gather, and a covered patio made for long meals with friends and lingering outside well into the evening. It's the kind of backyard that invites you to slow down and stay awhile. :: The Valerio House has been thoughtfully cared for and improved over the years, while holding onto the character that makes it feel like home. Comfortable, flexible, and unmistakably Southern California, it's ready for its next chapter.
