Encino, CA 91436 (MLS #26828317)

Set south of the Boulevard on a private road beneath a canopy of mature oak trees, this designer 1960s post and beam meets East Coast traditional pool home sits in one of Encino Hills' most coveted pockets. Evoking the effortless elegance of a Nancy Meyers film, the home is layered with a timeless, curated, and quietly luxurious feel. Designed for those seeking a single-story with minimal upkeep, the property has been thoughtfully transformed with an exceptional level of detail and craftsmanship. From the moment you enter, mid-century flagstone floors set a sophisticated tone, unfolding into a 1960s post-and-beam interior defined by custom millwork, woven cane-paneled doors with patinated hardware, and a warm, editorial palette. A striking dual-sided fireplace anchors the living and dining spaces, while French doors invite natural light in from every angle creating a seamless indoor-outdoor flow. The kitchen is the heart of the home, a beautifully composed… Read More space where form and function meet. Framed by vaulted ceilings and custom windows, it's filled with natural light and luxurious finishes, like The Wolf industrial double oven six-burner range with exhaust hood, and Sub-Zero Pro Series refrigerator. Tailored custom cabinetry, layered finishes, and window treatments soften the space into something distinctly polished yet entirely livable. An adjoining library-style sitting area offers the perfect setting for quiet moments or conversation and just beyond, a designer pantry with open shelving, a powder bath, and direct access to a two-car garage. Throughout the home, a cohesive design language carries from room to room, rich in texture, craftsmanship, and intention. Custom paneled doors with patinated hardware, lighting by Curry & Co., Thomas O'Brien, and AERIN, and bespoke wall coverings by Rebel Walls, Cole & Son, and Wallshoppe in linen and seagrass tones create a layered, editorial feel. The primary suite feels like an ad in Architectural Digest, complete with custom built-ins, designer lighting, and a beautifully executed en-suite bath featuring dual vanities, a Carrara marble shower, marble tile flooring, and generous cabinetry. 2 additional bedrooms are finished with woven seagrass carpeting while the additional baths carry a boutique hotel sensibility with marble shower, curated materials and vintage-inspired fixtures. Outdoors, the property unfolds into a thoughtfully designed setting ideal for both entertaining and everyday living. Just off the kitchen, an al fresco dining patio is framed by lush ficus hedging and designer tile, leading to an expansive sunning deck beneath the oaks. A classic mid-century kidney-shaped pool anchors the yard, complemented by crisscross hardscape, sculptural topiary planters, and soft astroturf accents. Additional features include fully paid solar panels, dual-zone HVAC, stackable laundry in closet, updated electrical/plumbing systems, a security system, and automatic irrigation throughout. Located within the highly sought-after Lanai Road School District and just moments from the best of Encino.
