Set on a pretty, tree-lined street in Mar Vista, this is one of those houses that just feels good from the moment you arrive. A winding brick path leads through the front garden to the porch, and inside, the 3 bedroom, 2.5 bath main house opens up beautifully, with bright, generous rooms and an easy flow from one space to the next. Just off the entry is a comfortable sitting room, followed by a large dining area and a step-down family room, where a beautiful picture window overlooks the street and fills the room with dappled afternoon light. Each room has its own character, but they connect easily, with plenty of space to gather or spread out. The spacious, light-filled kitchen has generous counter and storage space, a center island and breakfast bar. The primary suite is tucked away with a walk-in closet and French doors that open directly to the garden. Two additional large bedrooms, a full hall bath, powder room, and new white oak floors complete the main house. Outside a generous wrap-around yard has plenty of room for play and entertaining, with mature hedges and landscaping creating a wonderful sense of privacy. Above the detached two-car garage is an approximately 470 sqft bonus room (included in the home's reported square footage) offering flexible space for guests, a home office, gym or fourth bedroom. The location is hard to beat, just down the street from Mar Vista Elementary and close to neighborhood favorites Yama Sushi, The Hive and Lazy Daisy, with Lazy Acres Natural Market coming soon. It's an easy house to imagine making your own and staying in for a long time.
