Tucked into the highly desirable Ridgewood Heights pocket just north of Bixby Knolls, this beautifully updated single story home is ready to impress. Mature palm trees and lush landscaping frame the front yard, with a brick lined walkway leading to a covered entry. Major investment in the last six months includes a new roof with shingles and energy efficient underlayment to help keep the home cool in summer and retain heat in winter, a new main electrical panel, new recessed lighting, a new garage door, a new main sewer line with two clean outs, new quartz countertops, new kitchen backsplash, and a new stainless range hood. The open concept living and kitchen area is filled with natural light and tiled flooring. The kitchen features crisp white cabinetry, a gas range, and stainless refrigerator, flowing into a cozy dining nook with a built in hutch. The primary suite is filled with natural light overlooking the backyard. A versatile bonus room with sliding glass doors to the backyard can serve as a home gym, playroom, media room, additional bedroom, or ADU conversion. Three additional bedrooms offer flexible space, and the updated guest bath features a stylish tiled tub surround and pedestal sink. The massive, fully fenced backyard offers mature fruit trees, wide open grass, and room for entertaining, gardening, or a future ADU. A private side entrance adds convenience. Minutes from Bixby Knolls' Atlantic Avenue shops and restaurants, with easy access to Ralphs, Trader Joe's, and Sprouts, plus quick freeway access via the 91 and 710. Barton Elementary is nearby. Two car garage, wide driveway with extra parking, move in ready. Homes like this in Ridgewood Heights don't last, come see it before it's gone.
