Surrounded by unobstructed natural landscape, peaceful surroundings and the most explosive lake, valley skyline and mountain views from Chatsworth to Glendale with the most spectacular sunrise and sunset views you could ever wish for!!! Tucked on a private street with over 3/4 of an acre of land and perfectly nestled among the stunning Santa Monica Mountain Conservancy. This unique architectural residence was engineered by the legendary, Morton Newman to highlight grand living spaces, loads of natural light and a spectacular backdrop like no other! Upon entering through the double door foyer, you will be immediately captivated by the fabulous living room with floating staircase, two-story walls of glass overlooking the spectacular views, perfectly anchored by its warm central fireplace.

Encompassing five spacious bedrooms and six bathrooms, including the fabulous master suite with patio balcony and spiral staircase, sitting area, romantic fireplace, two dressing room closets and spacious spa styled bath with soaking tub, separate shower and dual sink vanity. For the past three and a half decades, the estate has been the home to legendary radio and TV personality (Laugh-in), Gary Owens, and wife Arleta, Gary was also the honorary mayor of Encino with a Star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame. To step outside and decompress is an understatement until you truly experience it in person. From the fabulous viewing decks to the expansive pool side lounge areas (with additional pool bath and European wood sauna) to the fantastic side yard patio area engulfed by a canopy of mature trees or, enjoy the meandering Palos Verdes rock pathways to sensational mediation spots and the pergola retreat overlooking the world.

As a licensed real estate brokerage, Estately has access to the same database professional Realtors use: the Multiple Listing Service (or MLS). That means we can display all the properties listed by other member brokerages of the local Association of Realtors—unless the seller has requested that the listing not be published or marketed online.
The MLS is widely considered to be the most authoritative, up-to-date, accurate, and complete source of real estate for-sale in the USA.
Estately updates this data as quickly as possible and shares as much information with our users as allowed by local rules. Estately can also email you updates when new homes come on the market that match your search, change price, or go under contract.
