A large single-family home in Northridge dating to the 1940s could give way to a townhome development, according to two application recently filed with the Los Angeles Department of City Planning.
The more than 50,000-square-foot property, located at 17545 W. Parthenia Street, is a corner lot at the street's intersection with Shoshone Avenue. Two separate applications under SB 1123 call for the construction of eight new single family dwellings, resulting in a total of 16.
Architect Valentine Janev is designing the homes, which would be two stories each and arranged in two rows around a common driveway. Plans show the homes would include three bedrooms and a two garage.
City records list Lior Mandelbaum as the applicant behind the project.
Mandelbaum has previously been associated with other projects in the San Fernando Valley, including a similar small lot subdivision in Panorama City.
