    What's special

    Private Topanga Canyon compound with 2 guesthouses, a creek running through the property, street-to-street lot, flat usable land, abundant light, ample shaded areas, mature landscaping, parking, storage, and strong possible income potential. Set on mostly flat, usable land at 1446 Old Topanga Canyon Rd, this flexible property includes a 566 sq ft main house, 2 separate guesthouses with private entrances, a huge flat open yard, and multiple outdoor areas for gardening, outdoor dining, creative work, and quiet canyon living. The main house was fully rebuilt with permits in 2009 while maintaining the original footprint of the 1925 home. Skylights, French doors, and double-pane windows and doors bring in abundant light throughout the day, while original 1925 stained-glass windows add warmth and character. Interior features include Caesarstone countertops, dark wood cabinetry, recessed lighting, central heat and AC, a wood-burning fireplace, an efficient galley kitchen, high ceilings, a walk-in closet, and a bathroom with a tub. The home has a clean, comfortable feel with an easy connection to the outdoor spaces. The 2 guesthouses create meaningful flexibility for guest accommodations, separate workspaces, creative use, or possible income potential. The lower studio guesthouse is approximately 450 sq ft with its own entrance off Old Topanga near the property's main entry. It includes an open kitchen, wood-burning fireplace, bathroom with tub and original 1920s tile, and a private enclosed patio beneath a mature oak tree. The lower studio guesthouse was recently rented for $2,400 per month, approximately $5.33 per sq ft per month. The upper guesthouse is approximately 260 sq ft and has its own private entrance from a separate street, completely apart from the rest of the property. It includes a compact kitchen, full-size refrigerator, bathroom, high ceilings, large open deck, and its own electric meter. The upper guesthouse is currently rented for $2,000 per month, approximately $7.69 per sq ft per month. For buyers looking for a writer's retreat, creative retreat, or private canyon property, the setting offers mature trees, abundant light, ample shaded areas, flat usable land, and multiple living spaces with a natural sense of separation. For buyers considering income potential, the main house is estimated to have possible rental potential of approximately $4,000 per month, approximately $7.07 per sq ft per month, subject to buyer verification. The large, mostly flat yard is one of the property's strongest features, with room for gardening, pets, outdoor dining, parking, storage, and flexible outdoor use. Mature fruit trees include pomegranate, apple, plum, and apricot, along with raised garden beds that have been used for growing food. The fully fenced grounds offer a comfortable balance of sun and shade, with the mature oak helping create naturally cooler, shaded areas. Important improvements include roofs on both guesthouses, drainage upgrades, retaining wall work, irrigation, fencing, a commercial-size septic system, an oversized metal shed with rewelded doors that can function as protected vehicle storage, and additional enclosed storage areas. The upper guesthouse is separately metered for electricity, while the main house and lower guest space share utilities. With 2 guesthouses, private entrances, creek setting, street-to-street access, flat usable land, abundant light, ample shaded areas, parking, storage, and possible income potential, this Topanga property offers a flexible canyon compound with character, utility, and a strong sense of place.
