New in Thousand Oaks! After 64 years in one family, this property (known by the neighbors as "the piano house") is ready for its next chapter. A Walker’s Paradise ®, the location lets you enjoy Solano Ave shops and restaurants, and the Kensington Circle Farmer’s Market. The house sits on a sunny corner lot with the neighborhood's signature boulder outcropping and namesake Oak trees in the back yard. The interior has many traditional features, along with some surprising twists, like the cosmic round window that beautifully showcases “the rock”. Both the formal dining room and the cozy family room open to the very private yard. The powder room, laundry room, and pantry complete the main floor. Upstairs there are 2 bedrooms and a bath along with a primary bedroom suite. The primary bathroom, complete with sliding doors to what was originally an outdoor deck, is ripe for a spa-type renovation. The lower level has a home office with interior and exterior access, and a full bath. A long driveway and garage provide plenty of parking and storage space.

As a licensed real estate brokerage, Estately has access to the same database professional Realtors use: the Multiple Listing Service (or MLS). That means we can display all the properties listed by other member brokerages of the local Association of Realtors—unless the seller has requested that the listing not be published or marketed online.
The MLS is widely considered to be the most authoritative, up-to-date, accurate, and complete source of real estate for-sale in the USA.
Estately updates this data as quickly as possible and shares as much information with our users as allowed by local rules. Estately can also email you updates when new homes come on the market that match your search, change price, or go under contract.
