About 9851 Shadow Island Drive
Step into timeless charm reimagined for modern living. This beautifully renovated Mellenthin home in the heart of Shadow Hills preserves the signature “bird-house ranch” architecture that defines these rare treasures — pitched rooflines, picture windows, and inviting indoor/outdoor flow. Every detail has been thoughtfully renewed: a brand-new kitchen with contemporary cabinetry and stainless-steel appliances, fully updated bathrooms, new flooring, new roof and fresh designer finishes that blend classic warmth with today’s comfort. Enough room to park all your toys, boat, RV and more. Natural light pours through the many windows, creating an airy ambiance that complements the open-concept living areas. Multiple patios and outdoor gathering spaces invite you to enjoy California living at its best — from morning coffee to sunset dinners with mountain views. Located in a desirable equine community, this property welcomes horse lovers with easy access to local riding trails and stables. Bonus: This offering includes a second parcel with its own driveway — perfect for building an ADU or creating a horse stable. Whether you’re drawn by the history, the craftsmanship, or the lifestyle, this home offers the perfect blend of heritage, heart, and harmony.
