About this home
Two Homes for the Price of One – Prime Northridge Opportunity ! Welcome to 8523 & 8521 Lindley Avenue, a rare opportunity to own a beautifully single-family residence plus a detached ADU, offering the ideal balance of owner-occupied comfort and income potential. This versatile property is perfect for buyers looking to offset monthly mortgage expenses while building long-term equity in a highly desirable Northridge neighborhood. The main residence (approximately 1,353 sq ft) features 3 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms, set behind a decorative wrought-iron fence with gated entry and thoughtfully designed front and rear succulent landscaping. A spacious front yard provides ample room for gardening, outdoor relaxation, or entertaining. Inside, the home offers a warm and inviting living and dining area with hardwood flooring, a private primary suite with its own bath, and two generously sized secondary bedrooms sharing a full bathroom. Just off the kitchen, a charming breakfast nook with custom banquette seating and pendant lighting creates an inviting space for casual meals. The galley-style kitchen is well-appointed with abundant cabinetry, granite countertops and backsplash, stainless steel appliances, dual in-wall ovens, and a large picture window overlooking the backyard. The rear yard is designed for both relaxation and entertaining, featuring an oversized deck, a landscaped garden setting, and a large covered patio that connects seamlessly to the detached ADU—ideal for outdoor dining and gatherings.
