Los Angeles Vacation Rental Home

This beautiful 3 bedroom, 2.5 bath two-story duplex home sits in the posh Beverly Grove neighborhood.

I completed a full renovation late last year. The house features a gourmet kitchen with stainless steel appliances (including a Sub-Zero fridge and Thermador oven/range).

The house also features original 1936 crown molding, a handsome fireplace and recently-refinished hardwood floors.

The living room and master bedroom include televisions with over 500 satellite TV channels as well as DVD players. There's also a shared backyard charcoal BBQ and a washer and dryer (laundry soap included).

I am entertainment-industry (touring companies, Hollywood cast and crew, etc.) friendly. The house is in a fantastic and trendy neighborhood, centrally located to easily get to all major studios and theaters. With literally dozens of great restaurants, shops and movie theaters within walking distance, it's a perfect home away from home.

The house features three large, bright bedrooms, each with queen-size beds and 650-thread-count linens.

Additionally, there's a very comfortable inflatable AeroBed for sleeping two more.

There are three bathrooms, two with showers (one with a bathtub) and a half-bath off the kitchen. The master bathroom and guest bathroom are very clean and fresh and stocked with fresh white towels.

The gourmet kitchen features stainless steel appliances (including a Sub-Zero fridge and Thermador oven/range).

The house was built in 1936 and features many original touches, such as the handsome fireplace mantle, the French doors off the master bedroom, and the intricately design of the balcony railing, to name a few. Additionally, the original (but newly-refinished) hardwood floors and crown molding give the home a stateliness you won't find in a boring new building.

Every room has been designed and furnished by the up-and-coming L.A. interior design firm "this is not ikea." As they explain:

Every piece speaks to us. You will see a variety of styles, ranging from mid-century modern and retro styles to shabby chic and unique art pieces, but they all share a "this is not ikea" look. We look for pieces that are unique, interesting, classic, artistic -- pieces with personality. We look for pieces that we would put in our own homes, or the house of a close friend.

You can see that each room has its own unique style; by avoiding brand-new, personality-free generic furniture, you will be in rooms designed to not only compliment the home's original 1936 charm, but also to give the house a creative energy you won't find anywhere else.

From the original movie posters and lobby cards on display throughout the house... to the incredibly comfortable lounge chair in the "tree" bedroom... to the historically-accurate hand-laid linoleum tile kitchen floor... to the handsome Asian-inspired dark wood and straight lines of the master bedroom... each and every room is an inspiring delight for the senses.

We welcome guests of all ages, but if you're traveling with babies or toddlers, keep in mind we're less like a generic hotel room and more like a boutique hotel, with funky, gently-worn vintage furnishings — some that require a gentle touch. :-) Unfortunately I don't have a crib.
