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. The approximately 400 sq ft detached ADU offers a private entrance, living/dining area, kitchen with quartz countertops and stainless steel appliances, and a bathroom. This flexible space is well suited for extended family, guests, a home office, or as a rental unit generating supplemental income—allowing the second unit to help pay down your mortgage. Additional highlights include gated access, an expansive Cemented driveway with ample parking, and a prime location within walking distance to CSUN, and close to Northridge Medical Center, Northridge Fashion Center, Porto’s Bakery, shopping, dining, public transportation, and major commuter routes. This is a unique opportunity to own a versatile, income-producing property that offers lifestyle, flexibility, and long-term value in one of Northridge’s most convenient neighborhoods. This is a MUST See.
