Historic 1930s Topanga Cabin on 1 Acre Near Red Rock Canyon
** 6-Month Lease Only **
Tucked at the end of a dirt road beneath mature oak and sycamore trees, 1704 Sycamore Dr is a rare Topanga rental with the kind of character that's hard to recreate. This rustic 1930s hunting cabin sits on approximately one acre and offers a peaceful canyon setting, historic charm, and a truly memorable approach. Park along the dirt road, cross the bridge, and follow the stone pathway up to the cabin.
Inside, the home has 1 bedroom plus a bonus room, 1 bathroom with a bathtub, a full kitchen, high speed internet, and a fireplace that adds to the cabin's warm, old-Topanga feel. The interiors are simple, charming, and full of texture, with wood details, canyon light, and a sense of privacy throughout.
The outdoor areas are a major part of the appeal. The property has multiple sitting areas tucked throughout the grounds, a private back patio with washer and dryer, a built-in stone BBQ, and a stone storage cabinet. There's also a detached Tuff Shed-style outbuilding with a sleeping loft and powder room, offering additional flexible space for guests, work, hobbies, or quiet retreat.
The setting feels removed while still being close to some of Topanga's best-loved natural spaces. Red Rock Canyon and the Topanga Skyline Loop are within walking distance, making this a special place for those who appreciate canyon living, privacy, nature, and rustic historic character.
This is not a polished modern box. It's a charming, soulful cabin with history, outdoor space, and a peaceful canyon setting at the end of a quiet dirt road with only one property beyond it.
