840 Country Club Drive $1,495,000

Elevated above the street and set back for maximum privacy, this exceptional residence offers a serene retreat on an expansive 8,871 sq. ft. lot. This beautifully updated 1932 stone house combines a rare blend of original details and modern updates providing ultimate comfort with direct access to the natural beauty of the Verdugo Mountains. Behind its gated entry, you step into the fully enclosed grounds where you'll discover a spacious flat yard and multiple outdoor living spaces, including a covered dining area perfect for entertaining or relaxing in total seclusion. A private rear gate opens onto a trail providing effortless access to miles of hiking and recreation. Inside, the home retains its original character while thoughtfully incorporating high-end updates. Upstairs the remodeled primary suite is a luxurious sanctuary, featuring vaulted ceilings, high quality Marvin Integrity windows, mountain views, a beautifully updated bathroom with Cle tile, a walk-in closet, ceiling fan, remote-controlled blinds, and its own dedicated HVAC zone for personalized comfort. On the main floor the updated kitchen offers extensive, recently redone cabinets, stainless appliances and a built-in pantry cleverly tucked away beneath the staircase. The kitchen connects to a stunning sundrenched dining room with built-in shelves and two walls of windows and doors to the outside, creating a seamless flow between indoor and outdoor living. The spacious living room features a dramatic floor-to-ceiling stone fireplace and stained-glass windows. At the far end of the house the generous secondary bedroom with walk-in closet connects to a den with built-in shelves and another full bathroom allowing it to easily function as a second primary suite. A detached 400 sq ft studio with half bath offers infinite possibilities whether as a creative space, home office, guest quarters, gym or an easily convertible ADU. The studio features new hardwood flooring, a separate HVAC system, tankless water heater and attic storage. The oversized two-car garage has ample storage and 220v power for EV charging. Other recent upgrades include new roofs and gutters, and a new all-electric HVAC system. This magical property can feel like a world of its own but is just minutes from all the restaurants and shopping of downtown Burbank and a short 15-minute commute to major studios and much of the entertainment industry. The property offers access to Burbank's top-rated school district and benefits from utility rates less than half of LADWP's. Don't miss this rare opportunity to join the historical Country Club neighborhood, one of Burbank's most desirable settings.
