The story
Set on one of Venice's most charming tree-lined streets, this thoughtfully updated three-bedroom bungalow pairs modern design with the warmth and character of a classic Venice home. Set on a generous private lot surrounded by mature landscaping, the light-filled interior features clean lines, new wood floors, beamed ceilings, and an open floor plan that creates an effortless flow between the living, dining, and kitchen spaces. The recently refreshed kitchen is both stylish and functional, with new Quartzite countertops, a Wolf range, updated cabinetry, and abundant storage. Walls of glass and French doors extend the living spaces outdoors to a private garden oasis, where a broad grassy lawn large enough to accommodate a pool joins a flagstone dining terrace and separate lounge area for relaxed entertaining. The primary opens through French doors to a secluded patio shaded by a magnificent magnolia tree. Its designer-appointed bath features glass mosaic tile, custom built-ins, and stone flooring. A detached two-car garage adds convenience and flexibility, while a second parking area currently serves as a generous gardening space ideal for those with a passion for growing vegetables and herbs and cooking at home. Zoned R2-1, the property also offers the potential for an additional dwelling unit, subject to applicable regulations and approvals. Just moments from Abbot Kinney, the beach, and the best of Venice, 2458 Walnut Avenue offers a rare combination of architectural style, privacy, generous outdoor spaces, and future potential.
