14007 Runnymede St, Van Nuys, CA 91405

Ideally tucked into a shady lane, well off the beaten path, this lovely Mellenthin home exudes the charm and character that makes them so highly sought. All is evident from the meandering path that leads to the covered porch. Here you enter the grand room. Original in its detail of soaring beamed ceilings, wood floors, tongue & groove wainscoting and display shelving; all anchored by a marvelous brick fireplace. Next, the formal dining room, which then leads to a comfortable kitchen & adjacent laundry room, all with period detail; such as - cabinetry, hardware & Dutch doors. To the rear is the den, with vaulted, beamed ceiling & serves as a possible 3rd bed. This passes through to a private wing, with a 2nd bed rife w/built-ins, a vintage bath and then on to the expanded master. Here the home shows great flexibility. An ante room starts the suite, ideal as an office, gym or nursery. Then on to a stylish bath, and then to a huge sleeping room with gleaming paver floors and a wall of closets. All the rear rooms open the the grounds, with its trellis covered al-fresco brick patio, grassy yard, fruit trees & enclosed side yard. It is true style, and it's all quite lovely, but this quality has its price; that be... a good life, just waiting to be lived.
