Rare one of a kind gem in Studio City just listed by Keller Williams Hollywood Hills...
Introducing 3327 Bennett Drive, an exceptional 5-bedroom, 4-bathroom home tucked away in the serene hills of Studio City, offering a unique "two-in-one" living experience. In 2022, a splendid Additional Dwelling Unit (ADU) was thoughtfully added to this property, providing versatility for long-term guests, a dynamic live/work space, or income potential. Step into the ADU's roomy, open-concept design, seamlessly merging the living, dining, and kitchen areas featuring sleek Samsung Bespoke appliances. The bathroom exudes sophistication with its stone countertop and a step-in shower enclosed by frameless glass doors. Spanning 461 sq. ft., the ADU is complemented by a recently renovated swimming pool and pool deck that showcases breathtaking northeast-facing views, including sights of Universal Studios, the enchanting fireworks display at Hogwarts, and the sparkling city lights. You can even catch the iconic Hollywood Sign from the primary bedroom, kitchen, and pool deck. Adjacent to the pool, you'll find an elevated spa, a built-in fire pit, and an outdoor living area beneath a canopy of twinkling lights, creating a picturesque setting. Beyond the ADU's retractable sliding glass wall lies a generously sized lawn, a rarity in the Hills, serving as the connecting focal point for the two homes on this expansive 10,011 sq. ft. lot. The primary home, originally built in 1941, spans 2,810 sq. ft. and seamlessly combines contemporary updates with the timeless charm of early Hollywood. Four bedrooms, including an en-suite primary bedroom with double sinks and a step-in shower, are located upstairs. On the main level, you'll discover a series of inviting spaces, perfect for gatherings and tranquil evenings in this prestigious celebrity enclave. The bright living room is surrounded by windows on three sides, offering panoramic views. A bay window and double-hung windows frame the room's fireplace. A sliding door leads to a covered outdoor entertaining area, accessible from the gourmet kitchen and dining space. The kitchen features high-end appliances, including a 4-burner Thermador range, Viking refrigerator, stainless-steel dishwasher, and a wine refrigerator. Original leaded glass cabinet doors from the '40s add a touch of early Hollywood charm. Additional features of this remarkable property include a 2-car garage with epoxy floors, a terraced front yard, a spacious front porch perfect for relaxation, mature landscaping, and a corner lot location. The story of how this enchanting ADU and the elegant 1940s classic home found each other could read like a romantic comedy, filled with twists and turns. Now, they stand side by side atop a Hollywood hill, creating a harmonious and perfect pair. This is where one chapter ends, and your next one begins!!
