About 531 N Sparks St

Where 1920s charm meets modern California living. Tucked into a highly walkable pocket of Burbank, this storybook 3-bedroom, 2.5-bathroom home is a rare blend of timeless architecture and thoughtful upgrades—complete with a sparkling pool, designer outdoor entertaining area, and a versatile bonus space that elevates daily life. Step through the charming front door and into a sun-filled living room that immediately sets the tone. Crisp white walls, original hardwood flooring, and a coved ceiling create a sense of lightness and warmth, while the classic fireplace offers a cozy focal point. From there, arched passthroughs lead you to a bright formal dining room—anchored by a statement chandelier and oversized picture window that invites the lush greenery indoors. The kitchen is both refined and functional, featuring rich espresso cabinetry, pale stone countertops, and a sea-glass tile backsplash that adds a fresh pop of color. Pendant lighting and a wide breakfast bar seamlessly connect to the adjacent family room—an ideal spot for movie nights or weekend lounging with views that flow directly to the backyard. The spacious primary suite offers a tranquil retreat with a walk-in closet, calming neutral tones, and natural light pouring in. Its en-suite bath showcases custom stonework, a sculpted vanity, and a walk-in shower with artisan tile. Additional bedrooms are generously sized with continued wood floors and recessed lighting, offering flexibility for guests, kids, or a home office. Step outside and be transported to your private outdoor sanctuary. An expansive wood deck with dual pergolas is ready for year-round entertaining—string lights, built-in fans, and privacy drapes set the scene for elegant dinners or casual weekend BBQs. Just beyond, a sun-drenched pool glistens with resort-style ambiance, bordered by a stamped concrete patio, drought-friendly turf, and lush hedging for privacy. Don’t miss the custom-built outdoor shower—rustic, stylish, and perfect for rinsing off post-swim. At the rear of the property, a fully finished bonus room with sliding glass doors offers endless versatility—guest suite, creative studio, gym, or game room—all with poolside views and its own half bath. Located just minutes from Magnolia Park’s boutiques and cafés, award-winning schools, and the studios, this home is the definition of lifestyle-forward Burbank living.
