6247 Orion Ave, Van Nuys, CA 91411

Lightning strikes, all but once. As does this rarest of opportunities. Located in the most sought Cameron Woods neighborhood, the jewel of the Van Nuys Riviera, is this: 25,412 sf of usable flat lot. Over half an acre of old-growth trees, lush gardens, spectacular lawns, vintage pool, guest house, out-buildings, and unbridled tranquility. The main house is a perfect example of post-war Ranch, lovingly remodeled and wholly modernized for the millennia. The sublime curb appeal starts at the picket fence, and on to the brick path that leads you to the west-facing portico. Enter here to a center hall dividing public and private spaces: 3 beds and 2 baths to the north, including a spacious master with walk-in closet. To the south, the bright living room is centered by a fireplace and provides open access to the formal dining room, and onto a combo space of family room, with fireplace and vast cook's kitchen. Access to the rear patio opens the view -- past the geometric pool, and on to the wonderment that a lot this size inspires. In its expanse, a porte-cochère attaches to the rear entry garage and adjacent parking circle. A permitted 1 bedroom, 1 bathroom guest house sits to the side, and then, beyond? The way-way back and its infinite potential. Yes -- this is Van Nuys Living!
