Description

In 1955 when the Pam Family was looking for the right area to raise their family, they settled in an enclave of William Mellenthin built homes just off Laurel Canyon Blvd. The 'Birdhouse ranch', known for its small 'birdhouse' structure protruding from the rooftop, was popular in the Valley at the time and caught their eye. Although, the birdhouse is no longer a feature of 7042 Saint Clair, its floor plan and style remain intact over 7 decades later and has been in the Pam family ever since. The floor plan of 1,560 square feet includes 3 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms along with a dining area, living room, family room, and kitchen. The covered front porch is the perfect entry to the home. Just inside is the spacious kitchen which features original tiled counters, built-in oven, range top with hood, and breakfast nook. The dining area is adjacent to the kitchen with the living room and family room close by. The living room offers a stone fireplace and slider to the rear yard. The family room includes several windows and a door to the rear patio. Each of the 3 bedrooms is off the central hall and are nicely sized. The hallway bathroom features original green tile and tub while the 3/4 bathroom underwent a recent remodel. The front yard has been professionally landscaped with green grass, plants, and palm trees. The rear yard offers a concrete patio and walkway, multiple trees, and an empty canvas ready for its next owner to add the finishing touches. Additional features of note include a 2-car attached garage, new copper main line, and new central heating and air conditioning.
