8836 Enfield

Welcome to your private tropical oasis in the heart of Sherwood Forest — a single-story 4-bedroom, 3.25-bathroom entertainer’s retreat that lives like a year-round vacation and has been used as a filming location. Set on a 0.4-acre lot at 8836 Enfield Ave, Northridge, CA 91325, this 2,941-square-foot residence pairs Spanish tile-roof curb appeal with a resort-style backyard built for hosting. A circular paver driveway, mature shade canopy, and citrus trees frame the front elevation — a nod to the original citrus grove that Sherwood Forest was carved out of. Inside, an arched columned foyer opens to a formal living room with fireplace, a separate family room, and a vaulted-ceiling game room addition with French-door access to the pool deck — included in the 2,941 sqft. The remodeled chef’s kitchen features white shaker cabinetry, granite countertops, stainless steel appliances, gas cooktop, built-in microwave, garden window over the sink, center island, and a peninsula with seating for four. Hardwood floors, crown molding, recessed lighting, and architectural arched openings run throughout the open-concept living, dining, and kitchen great room. A step-down sunken bonus room with bar cabinetry, glass display cases, and brass-rail accent adds a dedicated lounge zone. Central HVAC. The primary suite sits on the main level with hardwood floors, second fireplace, ensuite bath, and private French doors to the backyard. Three additional bedrooms and 2.75 secondary baths complete the layout — true single-story 4BR/3.25BA living, no stairs. A dedicated exterior pool half bath serves the backyard so guests never need to track wet feet through the house. The backyard is the headline. Pool with diving board and water slide anchors a fully built-out tropical compound: tiled outdoor bar with palapa-thatched roof and bar seating, second palapa-covered lounge area, covered pergola dining patio with string lights, raised wood gazebo, and a separate lawn play area with detached storage shed and playhouse. Mature orange, lemon, and citrus trees, queen palms, and tropical landscaping create the vacation feel that has drawn film and photo productions to the property. 2-car detached garage. Tile roof. Located in the heart of Sherwood Forest — Northridge’s celebrated estate enclave known for oversized lots, mature trees, and equestrian-zoned tradition — minutes to CSUN, the 118 and 405 freeways, Northridge Fashion Center, and the Topanga shopping corridor.
