Available 9/15 (maybe as soon as 9/3) No stone left unturned in this spacious, High-end 2075 sq ft retro/mod home. A 3 bedroom 2 bath home with a sunken den/family room in the beautiful Mar Vista Hills. Just 2 1/2 miles from the ocean, near Venice and Centinela Blvds, this home is central to all of silicon beach. A nine minute drive to the beach An 11 minute walk to the famous Mar Vista farmers market A 4 minute drive to the Santa Monica Airport which hosts an Antique swap meet 2 times a month and numerous other events An 8 minute drive to the Marina A 9 minute drive to Playa Vista and all it has to offer And a 20 minute drive to LAX!! This corner house on a surprisingly quiet street offers great ocean breezes that sweep up the hill on the cross street. When you check the weather, we are considered "beaches" which is always the best weather of them all! You will have to ignore google's street view as it is from before the renovation. The living room has the original 60's wall frames and a floating stone fireplace (electric). The sunken den/family room has a gas-assisted wood burning fireplace. An exterior door connects the den to the back yard's 15'x20' ft covered patio, a great outdoor room centered in a 900 sq for private backyard. There is an outdoor kitchen area with a sink and a space for your bar-b-que. A separate 400 sq ft side yard offers numerous uses. Others have put in raised bed gardens as it gets full sun. There is a photo to show an example of the raised beds but they are not included with the rental. There is no garage access, so the backyard has a 4' x 15' ft covered outdoor storage area with sliding doors and shelves. Ample street parking in the front and side of the house. There has never been a time that a resident couldn't park exactly where they wanted. The drought tolerant landscaping is calming and peaceful with a fenced front yard is just as private as the backyard with a loosely filled-in 10' hedge wrapping it (so you can peek out to see what's going on in the street without losing privacy) and no less than 5 elm trees scattered around the yard providing beautiful dappled shade. It has a comfortably sized covered front porch to fit a couple of chairs and small table as well as an 8'x20' ipe front deck. The roomy kitchen has a 5-burner gas cooktop with electric oven and loads of storage in the rift white oak cabinets (some as deep as 36"!). All fabricated by a high-end cabinet shop and topped with quartz countertops. The Dining room is of average size, but the rest of the rooms are big and roomy. A spiral staircase takes you to the second story, a 520 sq ft, 2 room area with a front room that could be a Tv room, library/reading room or a reception area for your home office. The large center room has 4 sky lights (one of which is an egress skylight) and a back area has a large cedar closet beside a small room that could be a great meditation or exercise room. It fits a peloton bike! This upstairs Bonus Room could be the 3rd bedroom and also seems perfectly suited to the the 'work' portion of a live/work situation. There is also a semi finished 40'x7' attic storage area beside this room with the ease of door access. The water is heated tanklessly and the air heated and cooled forcefully. This home has many special touches and the renovation was a labor of love by its owners. You might feel yourself calming as you explore the property. Come see. There's video walk-through, so you can see what's where, available on request. Tenant responsible for utilities and maintaining the landscaping with exception of the trees and hedges, which we will maintain. No smoking no pets 2 year lease.
