Behind mature hedging and a white picket fence, The Gable House unfolds across a rare, flat 17,008-square-foot lot - an extraordinary amount of land, privacy and breathing room in the heart of Sherman Oaks. Inside the gates, a circular drive leads to the shingled traditional home, where steep gables, shutters and a charming cupola hint at what lies beyond. Expansive lawns, mature gardens, a pool, outdoor dining and a detached one-bedroom guest cottage create the feeling of a private estate, remarkably removed from the city around it. Thoughtfully rebuilt and refined over time, the home reflects years of considerable investment in materials, craftsmanship and detail, with a warmth and individuality rarely found in newer construction. Gracious, curated rooms are designed to be lived in. The living room features a marble fireplace, built-ins and garden views, while the generous kitchen, with abundant Carrara marble counter space, substantial center island, 48-inch Wolf range and dual Sub-Zero refrigeration, is made for cooking, gathering and entertaining. A first-floor primary suite offers comfortable main-level living, while three character-filled bedrooms upstairs feature pitched ceilings and window seats with beautiful views of the garden. The detached guest cottage, with its own living room, bedroom, fireplace and bath, is equally suited to guests, a home office, creative space, multigenerational living or longer stays. Approximately 3,695 square feet across two structures, with five bedrooms and three baths. The generous scale and layout of the property also offer a natural canvas for future enhancements, should a new owner wish to make it even more their own. Moments from Ventura Boulevard with easy access to the Westside and greater Los Angeles, Gable House is convenient to Buckley, Harvard-Westlake, Campbell Hall, Curtis, Milken, Notre Dame, Oakwood and area public schools. It offers something increasingly difficult to find- genuine land, privacy and character in one of Sherman Oaks' most convenient locations.
