Property Description
Turnkey Burbank property with detached guest house—beautifully remodeled in 2014, offering a rare blend of character, modern upgrades, and income potential. Recent major improvements include new roof (2024) on the main house, guest house, and detached two-car garage, along with fresh interior paint (2026), making this a truly move-in ready home. The front 2BR/1.5BA residence with bonus sunroom features a cook’s kitchen with granite countertops, gas range, and porcelain tile flooring, along with a full bath finished in Carrara marble. Refinished vintage hardwood floors run throughout, and the sunroom opens to a private backyard with a lighted arbor and professionally installed paver patio (2014)—ideal for indoor-outdoor living. The detached 1BR/1BA guest house includes a living room, kitchen, full bath, A/C, and a private yard with a professionally designed brick patio (2014), perfect for rental income, guests, or multigenerational living. First time on the market in generations—lovingly maintained by the same family since 1947. The original owner trained and supplied animals for film and television productions, including Lassie and Let’s Make a Deal (documented). Harry Hare, the rabbit featured in The Geisha Boy, was also trained on the property. Close to parks, shopping, top Burbank schools, Providence High School, St. Joseph Medical Center, Joslyn Senior Center, Disney and major studios.
