What's Special
Over Half an Acre in Lake Balboa: Car Lovers, Creatives, Gardeners, and Dreamers are Welcome! You'll fall in love with this private oasis in peaceful Lake Balboa! Set on a rare 23,370 sq ft lot, this gated compound offers exceptional privacy and endless possibilities. The 3-bedroom, 2-bath home is anchored by a spacious great room with vaulted ceilings and skylights, filling the living and dining areas with natural light and warmth. While very livable, the home could benefit from some updating -- a wonderful opportunity to add value and make it your own. A true highlight is the detached 3-car garage connected to an oversized bonus space. Perfect for car aficionados, hobbyists, or creatives, it provides incredible space for a workshop, studio, or the build-out of a guesthouse or ADU -- ideal for multigenerational living or storage. Outdoors, the property continues to impress with a sparkling 14' x 40' pool, an incredible amount of succulents, native plants, trees, and generous gated parking for several vehicles and plenty of play spaces. This rare Lake Balboa gem offers the space, flexibility, and lifestyle you've been waiting for, whether your dream is to restore, expand, or create your own private compound. Property sold AS-IS. Bring your vision. Bring your entire family.
