About this single-family home
Welcome to this once in a lifetime opportunity to own and cherish a Timeless Treasure on the Burbank Hillside. The Home features Magnificent American Greek Revival architecture distinguished by its stately Doric style columns and symmetrical façade. Built in 1921 the property is steeped in History and showcases the elegance and craftsmanship of a bygone era. Its construction was chartered by the 1st Banking Family and Treasurer of the city of Burbank, Ralph O. Church, and it was the sole home on an expansive parcel that spanned up to the foothill of the Verdugo mountain range. Since the construction and stewardship by the Church Family, several families have owned and created memories with the current Family being the longest owners since 1978. Additional Historical notes are available upon request! The home itself is designed with Formal spaces, conveniently accessed Kitchen, 4 Bedrooms, 3 Bathrooms, Sun Room, and Basement/Wine Cellar. The 3rd Floor can function as the 5th Bedroom, Office, Studio, Home Theatre, Hobby or Exercise space as needed. The primary bedroom suite opens to a private deck with city views. The corner lot affords the property with comfortable space and dimension. A wonderful pool area completes the quintessential California entertainer’s backyard. This storied address is ideal for those who appreciate the authenticity & character, the potential to breathe new life into the home, and to possibly champion for an official historical designation.
