More open houses in Lake Balboa, CAWelcome to this meticulously maintained 3-bedroom home in Lake Balboa offering a generous 1,430 sq. ft. of living space on a 6,000+ sq. ft. lot in one of the neighborhood's most desirable pockets, bordering Sherwood Forest and Northridge.

Most recent updates include the virtually brand-new tankless water heater and a newer HVAC system for year-round comfort and energy efficiency. This lovely home is located within a short distance of highly rated Stagg Street Elementary, and just minutes from Cal State University Northridge (CSUN), Lake Balboa Park, local golf courses, and the area's popular off-leash dog park.

Super-Easy freeway access to the 101 and 405 puts the entire Valley, Burbank, Hollywood, and the Westside all within quick reach. With HOA fees rising across local condos and townhomes, the opportunity to own a Lake Balboa single-family home at this attractive price point with no HOA is exceptional. Don't miss your chance to secure a move-in-ready home with a private yard in one of the San Fernando Valley's flourishing and most affordable communities.
