Welcome to 9801 Lubao Avenue, a warm and versatile property tucked along a tree-lined street in the heart of Chatsworth -- one of the San Fernando Valley's most beloved and character-rich communities. With 4 bedrooms, 3.5 baths, and 2,591 square feet of living space on a 7,564 square foot lot -- including two primary suites, one in the main house and one privately positioned upstairs in the separate living area -- this 1957-built home offers genuine flexibility, a strong sense of place, and the kind of bones that invite you to make it entirely your own. -- Curb Appeal -- Swaying palms, a brick-lined extra-wide driveway, manicured brick planters, and a brick step to the front door create a classic, grounded first impression. -- A Thoughtful Interior -- Inside, marble-like flooring flows through the entry, kitchen, and dining area, with engineered wood-style floors through the living room and hallway. The living room features a stacked stone wood-burning fireplace, lighted ceiling fan, and a large dual pane window framing the backyard. The kitchen and dining nook work seamlessly together -- tile counters, garden window, recessed and under-cabinet lighting, breakfast bar seating, and a full appliance suite including a GE 5-burner range, built-in oven, Whirlpool dishwasher, and stainless LG refrigerator. The dining nook opens via slider to the exterior for easy indoor-outdoor living. -- Bedrooms -- The primary suite features a walk-in closet, lighted ceiling fan, and an attached tile bathroom with single sink vanity and shower enclosure. Two additional bedrooms with generous closet space are served by a hall bathroom with tub/shower combo, glass doors, and blue tile accents. -- The Garage -- The 2-car garage features a roll-up door, built-in storage cabinets, workbench, washer/dryer hook-up, and a GE refrigerator. -- The Separate Living Area -- Here's the Game Changer -- Accessible through the dining nook area and with its own private exterior entrance via a dedicated slider, the fully permitted separate living area is ideal for extended family, guests, rental income, or a home office. It features engineered wood-style flooring, a wet bar with sink, refrigerator, and storage shelving, a brick surround wood-burning fireplace, half bath, and recessed lighting downstairs, plus an upstairs beamed vaulted ceiling family room with gas-and-wood fireplace, a private bedroom with skylight and abundant windows, and an en suite bath with 2-sink vanity, soaking tub, and glass enclosed shower -- all served by a separate HVAC unit. -- Outdoor Living -- The private backyard features block walls, a large concrete patio, grassy area, and mature Meyer lemon and nectarine trees. Easy access to Trader Joe's, Vons, Mason Park, the Chatsworth Transportation Center, and the 118 Freeway -- 9801 Lubao Avenue. Room for your story. Room for theirs too.
