17025 Labrador Street

Welcome to this stylish mid-century modern home circa 1961 in Northridge. Offered for sale for only the second time in over 60 years, this rare gem is an entertainer's paradise and aesthetic dream. Set back from the street on a sprawling private lot with pool, this 4 BD/3 BA home abounds with charming vintage details and has been featured and published in many notable publications as a successful and profitable shoot location. The quintessential mid-century design is showcased in the main living spaces with clerestory windows, original fireplace and walls of glass letting in an abundance of natural light. Original storage closet room dividers, warm coffered wood ceilings, period-correct wallpaper and polished concrete floors are some of the many coveted period details still intact that blend beautifully with fun and practical modern updates in this time-tested layout. The bedroom wing is easily closed off to the main living space with pocket doors and features the primary suite with wood paneling and original tiled shower, as well as three other well-proportioned bedrooms with ample closet space, and additional bathrooms. An enclosed bonus space that the original owner used to cultivate his beloved orchid collection is now perfect for an office or home gym. Heading outside, you are instantly transported to a Palm Springs-like oasis with lush landscaping, mature palm trees and multiple zones for entertaining including the heated saltwater pool. A detached storage shed and detached garage offers unlimited potential to expand and transform this compound. Modern system upgrades include solar panels, a new roof, updated electrical, custom motorized window shades, and much more. Located moments away from both the Balboa Gifted/High-Ability Magnet Elementary School as well as the Highland Hall Waldorf School, and less than 20 miles from downtown Hollywood, this one-of-a-kind property is a rare find in a great Valley location.
