6110 Mary Ellen Ave, Van Nuys

Formally named 'The Wishnow Residence' (Benton and Park, AIA c. 1961), this over sized 3br/4ba with a gated atrium has so much to love, if you can get over being in Van Nuys. Tons of original details, walls of glass at the back of the house, sizable pool, beautiful fireplace — swap out that garage door and make some paint (and carpet) changes to have a stunner within weeks of moving in.
