Sherman Oaks, California 91401
This William Mellenthin Mid-Century Project represents a strategic development asset in the prestigious Chandler Estates enclave. Listed at $1,389,000, the property is positioned at a premium relative to its $1,246,779 Fair Market Value, driven by its architectural pedigree and coveted location. Currently holding a Condition Rating of 5, the "time capsule" interior necessitates a comprehensive rehabilitation. However, the 7,398 sq. ft. lot, sparkling pool, and Los Angeles Unified school district proximity offer substantial long-term value. This is a prime acquisition for Developers or Architectural Preservationists.

Property is extensive renovation needed.
Built in 1960, this property is in original condition and functions as a 'time capsule.' The kitchen features obsolete appliances, original cabinetry, and dated wallpaper/ceiling treatments. Throughout the home, there are acoustic ceilings, vintage wood paneling, and original flooring that show significant age. The listing description itself suggests the need to 'start from scratch' or 'consult a contractor,' indicating that while the home has been maintained, it requires a total rehabilitation of its major systems and interior to meet modern living standards.
Situated in the highly coveted Chandler Estates of Sherman Oaks, this property offers exceptional long-term value and prestige in one of the area's most sought-after neighborhoods.
As a classic William Mellenthin Mid-Century home, the property features iconic design elements like signature dovecotes and a thoughtful floor plan that appeals to architectural preservationists.
With a generous 7,400 square foot lot and over 2,000 square feet of living space, the property provides a substantial canvas for a high-end renovation or a complete custom rebuild.
The property is presented as a project for those looking to 'start from scratch' or 'preserve a classic,' implying that the 1960s interior likely requires a major capital investment to meet modern standards.
At a list price of nearly $1.4 million for a home needing significant updates, the total investment cost after renovations may challenge the immediate equity potential for some buyers.
