Rare opportunity to make this enchanting private canyon your own bohemian sanctuary, a two-acre nature lover's paradise that backs up to hundreds of acres of protected open space with miles of quiet hiking/riding trails. This three-bedroom and two-bath earthy-modern home with a european minimalist touch is tucked away at the end of a quiet cul-de-sac. Custom hardwood floors throughout and tons of dappled natural light all day long. The rural feel belies the 3 major freeways at your doorstep. Burbank studios are a short drive away, with easy access to DTLA, silverlake, and hollywood. Escape the hustle and bustle in this serene two-acre gated compound. Behind the gates and up the private driveway, step onto the mediterranean patio and let the spectacular vistas and surrounding mountains transport you. As you walk into the living room through the double doors, take in the breathtaking views from grand picture windows, and enjoy the sizable open-concept floor plan, oiled wood floors and two romantic fireplaces. The kitchen flows effortlessly to the formal living and dining rooms. There are two bedrooms and one bath on the main level, separated nicely from the main entertaining areas. Top floor is its own primary suite with a cozy fireplace (yes, that's fireplace Number 3), teak floors, walk-in closet, a large sundrenched bathroom, and stunning jetliner views. With sliding doors from the bedroom and bath, step onto an enormous and completely private wrap-around deck nestled in the hills, a large party space with a modern filtered soaking pond. Notable custom features include a retractable TV system, designer Kismettm tiles, a large pantry/laundryroom/mudroom with extensive storage, and turkish travertine tiling throughout. Massive deck space and patios on all sides of the house allow you plenty of space to have many different experiences. Jewel-toned accent walls with mature agave liven up the minimalist design, a nod to famed architect Luis Barragan. A zen garden, mini orchard and mature drought-tolerant landscaping frame the living space. Now stroll down to the barnyard area, complete with an old-world breezeway barn (two foaling-size stalls), a large corral, and arena. There is a "goat village" with chicken coop, for farm fresh eggs. A large and completely private canyon-protected pasture, perfect for the musician/artist to build an art studio or start a farm and grow your own crops. A bird-watcher's delight, the canyon is home to hawks, owls, quail, redheaded woodpeckers and hummingbirds. Plenty of space to start a large garden and grow your own fruits and vegetables. Located in Shadow Hills, LA's last true equestrian neighborhood, this truly unique property has not been on the market in over twenty years. Privacy, Nature, Freedom.
