456 S Skyline Dr, Thousand Oaks, CA 91361

A rare opportunity to lease a truly unique, beautifully restored 1938 cabin tucked away in a fenced and gated botanical garden compound. This one-of-a-kind home offers an extraordinary combination of privacy, character, and convenience, making it one of Westlake Village's most unique rental opportunities. Surrounded by lush native landscaping, majestic oak trees, and mountain views, you'll feel as though you're living in a secluded mountain retreat, yet you're just minutes from everything Westlake Village, Agoura Hills, and Thousand Oaks have to offer, including shopping, fine dining, and miles of scenic hiking trails. Unlike a typical neighborhood home, you can't see neighboring houses from the residence (other than the separate guest house), creating an exceptional sense of peace and seclusion. The quiet, low-traffic street further enhances the feeling of escaping to nature without sacrificing the convenience of being close to town. The home has been thoughtfully renovated while preserving its timeless character. Vaulted wood ceilings, skylights, ceiling fans, hardwood floors, a wood-burning fireplace, and a remodeled farmhouse kitchen create a warm, inviting atmosphere. Three sets of French doors blur the line between indoors and out, opening onto two spacious wooden decks and beautifully landscaped gardens. The home lives much larger than its square footage and feels connected to the surrounding landscape from nearly every room. The primary bedroom opens directly onto a private deck beneath a canopy of mature oak trees, an idyllic setting for morning coffee or evening wine. The 2nd bedroom is equally well suited as a guest room, home office, or creative studio. One of the home's most distinctive features is its secluded garden patio with an outdoor bathtub, outdoor shower, and porch swing beneath the oaks. Relax with a book, soak under the stars, and enjoy frequent visits from deer, quail, hummingbirds, rabbits, and other local wildlife. Additional amenities include central heating & air conditioning, washer & dryer, EV charger, fiber internet, and parking for up to three vehicles. A separate, detached guest house is located elsewhere on the property and is not included in the lease. It has its own private driveway and fully fenced yard, providing excellent privacy and separation between the two residences. Available furnished or unfurnished for short- or long-term lease. Well-behaved pet dogs will be considered subject to insurance breed restrictions.
