Located on a peaceful curve of Jacaranda-lined Colbert Avenue, this charming 2,266 sqft ivy-covered home on a generous 7,960 sqft lot rests in the heart of the highly sought-after, Westdale-Trousdale neighborhood of Mar Vista. With 5 bedrooms and 3 full bathrooms, this home boasts the perfect family floor plan, featuring a stunningly large backyard that can easily accommodate a sizable pool with a jacuzzi and potential for home expansion. Hummingbirds, butterflies, and songbirds are frequent visitors, and the neighborhood is a quiet, safe family enclave with no cross-through traffic. Double French doors open onto an expansive 350 sq. ft, floor-level terrace for outdoor living that will make you feel like you are in Provence or Tuscany. Two-story hedges and tall fruit trees give a sense of privacy and serenity, a welcome escape from the bustle of LA. The spacious master bedroom has wood-beamed, cathedral ceilings, built-in cabinets and bookcases, a wood-burning fireplace, a deep, relaxing Jacuzzi tub overlooking the backyard, and a custom walk-in closet. The open kitchen is ideal for entertaining and is equipped with a chef-grade Viking range, custom hardwood cabinetry, and luxuriously honed Jerusalem Gold marble countertops. The kitchen opens up to a bonus outdoor family area, perfect for mini basketball, ping pong, workouts, and barbecuing. The detached guesthouse (Permitting in the final stage) is perfect for guests or to use as an office, pool house, or rental space. It has vaulted, wood-beamed ceilings, a kitchenette, full bathroom and walk- in closet as well as a private patio. This charming, cottage-style home is just a short 5-minute walk from Mar Vista Elementary, one of Los Angeles' most coveted schools. The recreation center, located just a block away, offers a variety of classes for kids, as well as a playground, swimming pool, indoor and outdoor basketball courts, a soccer and lacrosse field, workout stations, six tennis courts, a roller hockey rink, and three baseball diamonds. Whole Foods, Trader Joe's, CVS, and various restaurants are all within a 5-minute drive.

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listed by other member brokerages of the local Association of Realtors—unless the seller has requested that the listing not be published or marketed online.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.
