Look no further, this charming mid century gem has everything you've been looking for! Shadow Hills offers a unique opportunity for those seeking a country atmosphere with the convenience of being a short commute to DTLA and most major studios. This is a rare find -- a home that has been in the same family since 1963. The current owner, who moved in as a young child recalls watching the first man to walk on the moon and being glued to the TV as Secretariat won the Belmont Triple Crown. A fun fact per the seller is that Secretariat's grandson now lives just down the street. Growing up in this home has helped develop a love of horses and animals and provided memorable experiences like rescuing their first horse and then going on to compete in dressage competition. The current back yard has always been full of animals: bunnies, chickens, dogs, ducks and even sheep. Today there are 3 dogs, 2 chickens and one guinea pig named Nugget. With the impressive lot size of 17,652 SF there is plenty of room for all. When you open the front door you are immediately drawn to the backyard views and a sense of privacy surrounded by all the natural beauty. In fact, from the street the first thing you will see is the custom horse and rose wrought iron gate and enclosed yard, front to back providing that privacy. The sitting area just outside the front door with a tranquil water fountain is a perfect place to relax with your favorite beverage on a country summer evening. The owners have preserved the well thought out design from 1962 from the classic mid century walk down tub and shower to the tile kitchen counter tops. Ready for all your design touches, this generous 3 bedroom, single story floorplan offers an amazing opportunity to the discerning buyer.
