Do you have a question about this home or the local area?
Not far from the glitz and glam of Hollywood, this family home has plenty of space to stretch out. Between the private pool, basketball court, cinema room, and array of other amenities, you'll never be bored here. The design inside is cosy and modern, and a separate guest house with its own living area, kitchen, and bedroom makes this ideal for multi-generational groups. Encino may not be in the thick of the action, but Ventura Boulevard is lined with restaurants and shops. Plus, with private parking, you'll be able to easily explore by car.

Local guide
About Encino
Infamous for its mention in Frank Zappa’s 1982 hit song “Valley Girl” lies the historic neighborhood of Encino – just to the north of Bel-Air and west of Sherman Oaks. Thought to be named after a 1000-year-old Oak tree, it is one of the oldest parts of the Valley. While quieter than other neighborhoods, it still boasts all the charm of LA. Shop and dine down the bustling area of Encino Commons or take a picnic to enjoy the California sun in Los Encinos State Park.
