Sherman Oaks Mid-Century Modern Goes Fast

I was literally in the middle of posting this great looking new (been listed for just 9 days) mid-century modern property in the hills of Sherman Oaks and it went from "Active" on the MLS to "Looking for Backup;" meaning they just accepted an offer. This certainly shows the strength of the market for well priced "done" homes that are move in ready in desirable locations. This particular property is a well designed large mid-century modern home with a large flat grassy yard, views, and sparkling pool.

A Mid-Century Renovation in Sherman Oaks

I found an article on MSN Real Estate's website documenting a recent remodel a family did on a mid-century home in Sherman Oaks and wanted to share it. Just look at the transformation. The owner's did great work, and the property went from a run down older home to a sleek modern show stopper. They had to remove years's of bad design fads (original terrazo flooring was under the old tiles for example) to bring the home back to it's roots. Then they took the home's solid bones and updated it with modern finishes. The finished product looks stunning, and is a minimalist mid-century modern lover's dream. See the complete article here.

Incredible Opportunity With Views In Sherman Oaks

This almost 3,500 sq. ft property with incredible views represents a great opportunity for either a buyer looking to create their dream house, or an investor looking to fix and flip the property. Located high up in the hills of Sherman Oaks with easy access to the Westside or Hollywood this home is being sold by it's original owner and is the first time ever on the market. The listing has limited pictures, but does mention that it has a great entertainer's open floor plan and pool. With other properties on this street currently on the market at $1.5M and almost $1.7M, this listing is clearly an opportunity to be taken advantage of.

I believe there are tremendous potential lying in several of these mid-century original homes in the hills of Sherman Oaks. They all seem to have the nice open floor plans, pools, and incredible views. Also, there is a very limited supply of redone homes done by real designers in this area, which means a savvy investor may be able to command top dollar when it comes time to resell the home. If you would like to see this fine home, or discuss other opportunities in the area, please contact us anytime @ 310.600.9172 or email smilayproperties@gmail.com.

I am going to be posting more homes in this area soon I think, as I see a ton of great ranch style homes built in the 50's & 60's in Sherman Oaks available right now. The thing that caught my eye with this particular property is the price, due to the recent $100,000 price reduction, as well as the over 11,000 sq. ft lot. This, along with it's original "Eichler style," according to the listing, open floor plan affords it's owner a ton of potential.
