Description

Tucked behind a secure electric gate, 1923 Friar St., Tarzana offers a rare leasing opportunity that feels far more like a private retreat than a rental. This 3-bedroom, 2-bath traditional home spans 1,453 sq. ft. and delivers the kind of serenity that makes you forget you’re still in the city. Inside, the home is light, bright, and freshly painted, with brand-new carpeting, plantation shutters, and double-paned windows throughout. A whole-house water purification system enhances everyday living, while an oversized AC system keeps things comfortable year-round. The kitchen features granite countertops, generous cabinetry, a built-in microwave, and a newer LG refrigerator. Bedrooms include mirrored closets with built-in shelving, and both bathrooms offer updated walk-in showers. A dedicated laundry area includes pantry storage plus a newer LG washer and dryer. The enclosed lanai creates a flexible indoor-outdoor space perfect for a home office, creative studio, yoga retreat… or simply your favorite hiding spot after a long day. The true showstopper is the extraordinary Zen-inspired exterior. Lush, private, and meticulously landscaped, the grounds feature 12 mature fruit trees, soothing waterfalls, decorative solar lighting, and automatic drip irrigation. By day, it’s peaceful and green; by night, it gently glows—transforming into a softly lit garden escape that feels like your own boutique resort (minus the check-in desk). Multiple seating areas invite morning coffee, evening unwinding, or quiet moments under the stars. Outdoor furnishings include a BBQ grill, propane fire table, utility sink, remote-controlled patio awning, and even flat-screen TVs are included—because yes, you can have ambiance and game night. The driveway accommodates three vehicles (one covered, two uncovered). Conveniently located near freeways, shopping, dining, and schools, this home offers privacy, comfort, and a lifestyle that feels just a little elevated. For the comfort and care of the home, this property is designated as a no-pet residence; qualified service animals, as defined by applicable law, are welcome. This is a non-smoking property, and no smoking is permitted anywhere on the premises.
