Behind a private gate, this single-story Topanga estate unfolds across more than half an acre of lush, mostly flat grounds beneath towering oak trees. Fragrant plantings of lavender, rosemary, roses, and fruit trees create a serene garden setting tucked into the canyon. The approximately 2,200 sq ft home is filled with natural light, with high beamed ceilings defining the living room. Anchored by a fireplace and opening through glass doors to the patios and gardens, it creates an effortless indoor-outdoor flow at the heart of the home. A refreshed kitchen connects to an elegant dining room well suited for relaxed gatherings and long meals with family and friends. The primary suite opens to the gardens through French doors and features a travertine bath with soaking tub and glass shower. Two additional bedrooms occupy their own wing, sharing views over the rose garden and catching the western light, served by a bright full bath. A well-designed mudroom with extensive cabinetry keeps daily life organized. A substantial detached outbuilding offers rare flexibility divided into an atelier-style workspace, laundry area, and storage/office, ideal for creatives, remote workers, or additional studio space. New insulation and HVAC in the main house. The lower portion of the property has conduit in place for a future spa or outdoor entertaining area. Winding garden paths connect a series of private sitting areas throughout the grounds, a swing hangs from one of the majestic oaks, and wide stone patios create an inviting setting for entertaining. Minutes to Topanga Village, the beach, and Santa Monica Mountains trailheads.
