About 16504 Hiawatha Street
Set back from the street, enjoying great curb appeal from the curved drive with brick ribbons, a grassy front lawn, brick porch, and classic planter details, this classic Southern California rambler offers the kind of space, warmth, and flexibility that make a house feel like home. Inside, hardwood floors, crown molding, decorative wainscotting, and natural light create an inviting first impression. The kitchen, the heart of any home, brings a fresh, cheerful feel with crisp white cabinetry, stone counters, recessed lighting, a tray ceiling, breakfast area, and a bay window with a window seat that feels made for slow mornings. The living room centers around a large brick fireplace with built-in shelving and an arched pass-through that keeps the home connected without losing character. An adjacent room adds valuable versatility and could function beautifully as a den, office, playroom, or possible additional bedroom with a few modifications. A step-down family room, added with permits, expands the living area of the home with vaulted wood-beamed ceilings, a second brick fireplace, and French-style sliders opening to the backyard for true indoor/outdoor living opportunities. The bedroom wing includes three comfortable rooms with thoughtful aesthetic details, ceiling fans, and good closet space, along with two hall baths and a dedicated laundry area for everyday convenience. Direct access from the finished two-car garage, complete with a skylight, adds practicality, while two secondary structures (both permitted) offer options for a workshop, storage, home gym, studio, creative retreat, or possible income potential. The oversized backyard is a true highlight, with multiple covered patios, brick accents, grassy lawn, and mature border landscaping that create an easy setting for family gatherings, outdoor dining, play, gardening, or simply relaxing at home. Located in a desirable Granada Hills neighborhood near local parks, shopping, dining, Granada Hills Recreation Center/Petit Park, O’Melveny Park, Knollwood Golf Course, and convenient 118 and 405 freeway access, this home offers comfort, character, and room to grow in a setting designed for everyday Southern California living.
