Private Not-So-Tiny Home: Yard+Dogs OK

Welcome to #TheMaisonNet! Our newly remodeled ‘not-so-tiny ' is in the center of it all...a quick drive from Hollywood, WeHo, The Grove, Silverlake, Larchmont, and Downtown and walking distance to Melrose and some of the best restaurants and shopping in LA.

Want to work from home? My Tiny Home has high speed internet, a printer, and plenty of places to set up shop.
The space
Located in Hancock Park, #TheMaisonNet is just off one of L.A.'s most famous streets, Melrose Avenue - in a walkable neighborhood filled with charming tree-lined streets, and excellent local coffee shops and stores. This not-so-tiny home has plenty of space for everything you bring. While the layout can accommodate up to 4 people two guests are perfect; a third can sleep on the fold-out couch in the loft, and a fourth guest can sleep in the loft net if needed.

Speaking of loft nets: hands down, my favorite part of designing this space was realizing we could utilize part of the second floor as a fun, funky hangout space: yep, you can lay in it! The loft features a projector, sofabed, in-wall dresser, skylight, the loft net, and an absurd amount of pillows. I have a feeling this will be the most popular hangout spot in the house.

The private bedroom has a sliding pocket door for additional privacy and is furnished with a hybrid queen memory foam and spring mattress, dual nightstands with lamps (each featuring USB and electrical ports), plenty of drawers and closet space, a new Smart T.V., and... well… a shower that will certainly bring some heat to the bedroom. End your day under the waterfall shower beneath a massive skylight in this beautiful modern open bathroom.

Don't be fooled by the minimalist kitchen design; you'll have everything you need to pretend you're cooking yourself dinner from scratch (even when you're actually walking around the corner to eat at the famous Pink's Hotdogs). The custom-built kitchen features a new refrigerator, microwave/oven combo, cooktop, and two coffee stations (yes two… a Nespresso maker and also a french press, because we love coffee). There are also pots, pans, silverware, plates, cleaning supplies, and most importantly…a dishwasher! Its hiding behind two drawers that aren’t really drawers.

In terms of amenities, we've got you covered. You'll have access to minor yet essential things like an iron, blow dryer, towels, soap, and a shared washer and dryer (located in the mini-laundry room just off the main house in the backyard). The projection screen in the loft and the flat-screen T.V. in the bedroom are both 'smart' and will connect you to your streaming services (just make sure to log out when you leave).

And lastly, we are geeks when it comes to 'smart home' stuff. Everything is smart. Alexa can control the lights, the heated floors, the locks, the music, the projection screen, the blinds, the skylight, and even… the faucet. Yes, you can tell Alexa to pour different measurements of water! (Overkill? Yes. But fun. Keep an eye out for little notes around the house for things to try out.)

Welcome to #TheMaisonNet at @MelroseSpace
Guest access
There are three living spaces here at @MelroseSpace:

1. #TheMaisonNet (one-bedroom tiny home where you'll live).
2. The Main House (2b 2b house where we live).
3. #TheNomadPad (studio for long-term airbnb renters).

#TheMaisonNet and #TheNomadPad share a large backyard, and both have access to the washer and dryer located in the mini-laundry-unit… ok its a shed, but its a cute shed. You'll have access to the entire tiny home. There are two entrances, a private one through the alleyway and the other through the side gate of the main house. Both doors are smart and will open with the code you receive when you book.
Other things to note
There are visible exterior cameras in the alleyway entrance, the backyard, and ring doorbells that monitor people coming and going to maintain secure premises. Cameras are only on the exterior, and THERE ARE NO CAMERAS INSIDE THE AIRBNB.

There is a noise monitor in the unit to detect if sound levels go beyond a certain level (and can be used to detect unauthorized parties). THIS DOES NOT RECORD SOUND; it only alerts us when the decibels get too high, especially from 10 pm to 8 am.
