For the Buyer searching for something truly different. Tucked behind gates on an idyllic cul-de-sac in coveted Rancho Estates, this one-of-a-kind Encino property offers something increasingly difficult to find: privacy, character, abundant outdoor space and extraordinary flexibility-all just moments from Ventura Blvd. Set across approx. 18,000 square feet of lushly landscaped grounds, the property exudes the feeling of a private compound rather than simply a house. At its center is a charming single-story Traditional residence filled with architectural personality-vaulted wood-beamed ceilings, wood floors, French windows and doors, built-in bookshelves, a classic brick fireplace, and an inviting country kitchen with soaring ceilings, skylights, a center island, and sunny breakfast area. The three-bedroom floor plan includes a romantic primary suite with remodeled bath, two additional bedroom suites, and flexible space ideal for a library, office or music room. Beyond the main residence, discover something altogether special: a wonderland of winding pathways, mature trees, expansive patios, a gated pebble-bottom pool and spa, abundant fruit trees, and a tranquil waterfall, an environment that feels worlds away from the city. Perched on its own level is a separate recreational space featuring dramatic wood-beamed ceilings, brick floors, viewing deck and its own entertaining patio, offering remarkable possibilities for a private office, creative studio, gym, music room, or simply a place to escape. A two-car garage, storage shed, dual-zone HVAC, and alarm system, are added bonuses. For the buyer who values individuality over ordinary, privacy over predictability, and land and character over the commonplace, 4650 Encino Ave presents a rare opportunity to create something uniquely their own in one of Encino's treasured neighborhoods.
