Nestled in the scenic hills of Studio City and on the market for the first time in 30 years, 3720 Alta Mesa Drive offers a private sanctuary just moments from the vibrant dining and shopping of Ventura Boulevard. Set on a long, secluded driveway, this 2-bedroom home, complete with an additional office and 2 bathrooms feels like a hidden treehouse retreat, crafted for those who cherish both privacy and a connection to nature. Panoramic city and mountain views unfold from every angle, providing a breathtaking backdrop to daily life. The kitchen, outfitted with a Bertazzoni stove, Miele dishwasher, granite countertops, and stainless steel appliances, opens seamlessly to the living and dining areas, which flow effortlessly onto an enchanting deck. This elevated outdoor space, framed by towering trees, offers a front-row seat to sweeping hillside views, expanding and blurring the lines between indoors and outdoors. Outside, private trails wind through lush gardens, creating serene spots to immerse in the natural surroundings. The property is enriched by its remarkable landscape, including seven large pine, cedar, and redwood trees, a mature avocado tree, and a 20-year-old olive tree. A tranquil waterfall attracts hummingbirds, while the large outdoor patio, complete with a wood-fired pizza oven, provides multiple areas for alfresco dining and entertaining under the stars. Enveloped by gardens blooming with citrus, peach, plum, and fig trees and frequented by local wildlife like owls, this hillside retreat is an offering rarely seen in LA.
