Welcome to The Cabin and The Cottage homes, where tranquility, serene living, and modern amenities coalesce. These two homes have been exquisitely renovated for years to create a hidden compound in the heart of Highland Park. The property features a fully fenced front yard with 3 off-street parking spaces, a zen fountain and birds swirling through the landscape, lending to a mountain retreat feel. The landscaping on the property features citrus trees, a veggie planter box, a ficus green wall surrounding, and some of the most beautiful and sought-after trees and plants from around the world. The lush, enchanting landscaping and "lifescaping" is drought-tolerant and maintained through drip irrigation. The Cabin home features 3 beds and 2 baths, a vaulted ceiling great room, chef's kitchen, and primary walk-in closet. This home has ample storage, including the custom-built gathering closet by the front door perfect for a "shoe off home" doggie leashes, coats and book/work bags. The guest bathroom has a Japanese-inspired soaking tub that doubles as a plunge pool, lending itself to full-body relaxation and recovery. The primary is complete with large cabinetry to provide efficient storage. Both properties feature new California COOL roofs and an ember-resistant fire screening defensible system. The homes feature all the upgrades one would want in a new property, including a new sewer line, rebuilt foundations, new tankless water heaters, new appliances, new HVAC in both homes, copper plumbing and new electric panels. Behind the main home is a one-car garage or bonus space perfect for extending the entertaining from the built-in BBQ with natural plumbed gas line, pizza oven, and outdoor kitchen. The fountain, complete with Koi and ornamental goldfish by the outdoor kitchen area adds the visuals and sound effects one needs for total calm. This property does not have neighbors to the left and back of the home, making this compound one of the most tranquil one can find. The Cottage home is a 1-bed 1-bath with a laundry room, vaulted ceilings, and two walk-in closets. Just behind the Cottage home is another private yard, featuring a fire pit, bistro lights, and a Japanese-inspired landscape. So the question is, why have one house when you can have two, and why not have total tranquility or be in the heart of a city when you can have both?  The Cabin and Cottage homes are waiting to give you everything you have been dreaming of!
