Condition: The property, built in 1959, presents as a significantly renovated and well-maintained home with a distinct modern architectural style. The 'gourmet kitchen' features stainless steel appliances, stone countertops, and light wood cabinetry, which is functional and in good condition, though the cabinet style might not be considered brand new.

Great Schools: Elementary School: Roscomare Road Elementary School (9/10).
Dual Residences & Income Potential: The property features two distinct homes on one lot, including a 3-bedroom, 2-bath guest house (approx. 1800 sqft), offering significant flexibility for rental income, multi-generational living, or dedicated office/creative space.
Expansive & Flat Lot: Situated on a huge, flat 21,000 sqft lot in prime Royal Woods, the property boasts an expansive, lush backyard with ample space to add a full-size pool, enhancing its outdoor living potential.
Architectural Design & Natural Light: The main house is a stunning custom-built architectural compound featuring floor-to-ceiling windows, 20'+ ceilings, and skylights, ensuring abundant natural light and a grand, open feel.
Prime Location & Views: Located in the desirable Royal Woods area of Encino, the property offers amazing canyon views from the primary suite and a pergola-covered patio, providing a serene and picturesque setting.
Gourmet Kitchen & Entertainment Spaces: The main house includes a gourmet kitchen that opens to a great room, a large living room with a fireplace, and a formal dining room, all designed for sophisticated entertaining and comfortable living.

Cons

Significant Price Discrepancy: The listing price of $4.995M is substantially higher than the estimated property value of approximately $3.46M, indicating a potential overvaluation of 30% which may deter buyers or prolong market time.
Lack of Existing Pool: Despite the large lot and 'plenty of room for a pool,' the current pool shown in marketing materials is photoshopped, meaning a buyer would incur significant additional costs and project management to install one.
Age of Property & Potential Updates: Built in 1959, while described as custom architectural, the property's age suggests that some systems or areas beyond the mentioned gourmet kitchen may require modernization or updates to meet contemporary standards and avoid future maintenance issues.
