About this home

Set behind an iconic white picket fence on an oversized, flat, corner lot in the heart of Little Holmby, 642 Warner Avenue is a storybook, single-story traditional that blends 1940s character with extensive modern updates. Warm, inviting, and impeccably maintained, this home offers a rare combination of timeless appeal and turnkey living. Inside, the floor plan balances classic spaces, such as the formal living and dining rooms, with a recently created modern, open-concept family room and kitchen. Upgrades by the current owner include new wood floors throughout, new roof, refreshed bathrooms, updated plumbing, a revitalized kitchen and updated appliances. There are three guest bedrooms (one currently staged as an office), each with its own full bathroom, plus a second family room overlooking the pool that functions perfectly as a playroom or a spacious fifth bedroom. The primary suite features dual walk-in closets with custom built-ins and a beautifully remodeled bathroom. A laundry room and powder room complete the layout. The exterior is equally impressive. An inviting, vine-covered pergola off the family room leads to the expansive, private grassy yard and the sparkling saltwater pool, secured by a stylish glass safety fence. The result is a home that lives effortlessly; classic in its charm, modern in its comforts, and situated within one of Westwood's most beloved neighborhoods. Moments from Holmby Park, UCLA, and Warner Avenue Elementary, this is Little Holmby living at its finest.
