Our fully furnished and richly decorated 2-bedroom apartment is ideal as a vacation hideaway or a relaxing retreat if you plan to stay longer. Crowning the top of a California Craftsman duplex, this 1,000-square foot treasure is situated only one mile from the ocean in beautiful Mar Vista, right next to Santa Monica. We're on a treed residential street that offers mountain views from our patio deck, and top-flight restaurants, cinemas and antique shops are only 2 minutes away. If you drive down our cross street (passing a very convenient Costco and a Vons supermarket) you'll arrive at the fabulous beaches of Santa Monica and Venice in only 4-5 minutes.
Bright, clean and inviting, the apartment has recently been exquisitely renovated with a respect for historical detail. It features new hardwood floors, Persian carpets, new furniture and all new fixtures.
The large and airy master bedroom features casement windows (morning light) and a walk-in closet, reading nook and cedar linen chest. The equally large and sunny second bedroom, which can also be used as an office, includes a writing desk facing the casement windows (afternoon light) with a view of the neighborhood, and a beautiful studio upright piano in excellent condition (ideal for a musicians).
Our cozy den features a new reclining armchair and sofa that can pull out to an additional guest bed, along with a widescreen hi-def television complete with DirecTV premium channels, DVD player, and a 5-CD stereo.
French doors in the den open to a spacious outside patio deck with a distant view of the mountains and ocean. The deck overlooks a charming backyard (lit by lanterns at night) that is home to our lemon and orange trees -- you can pick lemons right off the tree from the deck! -- and framed by bougainvillea, a trickling fountain and an herb garden.
Our sunny kitchen offers lots of tiled countertop space, an over-the-range microwave and stove, a large refrigerator and a versatile oak breakfast trolley/wine bar next to an adjacent dining area. There's also a full bathroom with bathtub and shower and new fixtures.
All rooms are newly painted, and there is central heating. The apartment comes with high speed WIFI as well as a landline phone with local calling included. Off-street parking is available. ADDITIONAL PHOTOS AND POWERPOINT SLIDESHOW CAN BE EMAILED UPON REQUEST.
Laundry facilities are in a separate backyard cabina and are shared with the downstairs tenants. Entrance to the apartment is via a private stairway off the backyard.
No pets and no infants, please. Minimum age of 6 years old, accompanied by parent.
