A rare opportunity to own a recently renovated, cozy canyon retreat with modern upgrades and income potential. Tucked away at the end of a quiet street, this updated Topanga gem offers privacy, character, and direct backyard access to scenic hiking trails. The moment you enter the gated driveway, a sense of calm that only Topanga delivers washes over you. Even more rare? Ample street parking, nearly unheard of in the canyon, with a covered carport, long driveway, and street parking. The open-concept layout flows around a striking Topanga River Rock fireplace, with new, real, herringbone white oak floors. Custom cabinetry anchors the interiors in warmth and craftsmanship. The kitchen and living areas connect seamlessly, creating the perfect backdrop for both everyday living and easy entertaining.Two light-filled bedrooms open to the outdoors through French doors, while the renovated bathroom features high-end tile work, premium hardware, and spa-like details. Upstairs, a rooftop deck offers a front-row seat to canyon sunsets and stargazing. The detached studio provides flexible living ideal for a home office, creative studio, guest suite, wellness space, or a private extra bedroom. Newly designed landscaping creates enchanting outdoor spaces with drought-tolerant plantings for easy, eco-friendly maintenance. With a brand-new roof, a new electric gate, and thoughtful updates throughout, the home is truly turnkey. And for those seeking passive income, it's already a high-performing Airbnb, fully operational with a trusted, built-in neighbor-manager. Perfectly located between the 101 and PCH, you're just 20 minutes to the coast, but a world away from it all. This is Topanga at its best, wild, refined, and ready for its next chapter.
