What Makes a Property Iconic

Sometimes it's the address — a coveted hillside perch in Encino Hills, one of the San Fernando Valley's most prestigious neighborhoods. Sometimes it's the setting — panoramic views that stretch across the valley from your own backyard. And sometimes it's what someone builds there — a 120-tree orchard and terraced garden system unlike anything else in the neighborhood. At 3666 Sapphire, it's all three.

The Orchard & Gardens

Since 2021, the backyard has been transformed into a private hillside orchard and terraced garden — over half an acre of working farmland framed by the sweeping panoramic views that define this Encino Hills setting.

Epic Hillside Views

The east-facing hillside offers sweeping panoramic views that define the property. The 90-jet spa is positioned at the edge of the backyard to take full advantage of the vista — an unmatched setting for morning coffee or evening relaxation.

Terraced Vegetable Garden

A custom pipe-and-board terracing system transforms the hillside into five irrigated planter rows, each approximately 3 feet wide and 100 feet long. The first row extends the usable backyard, while the remaining five tiers provide over 1,500 square feet of growing space. The east-facing exposure delivers ideal morning sun — a gardener's dream.

  • Smart Rachio irrigation timer with grid watering system
  • Chicken wire installed beneath beds for gopher control
  • Professional turf installed throughout the flat yard
  • 4 raised front yard planters for daily vegetables — lettuce, tomatoes, kale, and more

120+ Fruit Trees & Plants

Spread throughout the property, over 120 fruit trees and plants have been installed — many of them rare and exotic varieties — each with a sub-irrigation device for efficient root-level watering. The avocado trees alone are already producing over 100 avocados per year, a number that will grow as the trees mature.
