Home of the Week: Adding a few twists in Sherman Oaks

The Sherman Oaks home, listed for $2.675 million, has gone through a number of changes through the years including a renovation by Malibu architect Barry Gittelson. Stone courtyards and vine-wrapped trellises lend a peaceful vibe to the home, which sits on about a quarter of an acre. Inside, two pyramid skylights flood the 3,021-square-foot interior in natural light. Dark stone floors, custom lighting and a new kitchen are among other details of note.

Two massive pyramid skylights let in the light at this Sherman Oaks house, which incorporates rough stone siding and a few other twists into its original 1950s design. A renovation by Malibu architect Barry Gittelson transformed an upper deck into a media room while a separate project added a swimming pool in the backyard. A stone patio, a koi pond, olive trees and gardens contribute to the home’s peaceful atmosphere.
