Fully-furnished maisonette occupying half the first floor of a Victorian Mansion. Central Air Conditioning. Washer-Dryer. Two private street-level entrances accessed from front and back yard. Shared rear yard for picnics and BBQs. Ample street parking on the block.

Your Private View. Front porch overlooking our landscaped front lawn with seating for two to soak in sunsets from the top of our hill in Angelino Heights, overlooking sweeping views of the basin stretched below, framed by the tops of skyscrapers downtown.

Angelino Heights Historic Area. Step back in time to the Victoria Era preserved in all its intricate, "painted ladies," wide streets, strolling sidewalks, open front gardens, and quaint globe street lights (copies of the original gaslights).

Close to East and West. North and South. This area was the first suburb of downtown LA from 1890s-1920s with skyscrapers visible on the horizon from our porch. Extremely convenient to many of the best places to visit— Downtown Theaters, Museums and Arts District, Silverlake, Hollywood, Los Feliz, Chinatown, Glendale, Highland Park, and more.

Walk to Three Parks. Easy 5-10 minute walks to three closeby spectacular parks — Echo Park, Elysian Park, and Vista Hermosa— and Dodger Stadium!

Fully Furnished. Every room has soaring 12-foot, coved ceilings and hardwood floors. The apartment is spacious with windows on three sides, elegantly arranged for work, rest, and play. There are two workspaces arranged for each of the two artists who live here, each equipped with standing desks (both of which can be lowered to seated height as well).

Gracious Living. There is a spacious living room area illuminated by a huge bay window facing the street accommodated with a luxurious art deco couch and armchair and television linked to Netflix, HBO, Criterion, and other streaming services. New central air conditioning.

Sleep Well. The quiet spacious bedroom has a queen bed and dramatic floor-to-ceiling windows along one entire wall, yet the light is diffused (facing the space between two houses) which permits the leisure of sleeping in late. There is enough open floor space for two adults to twirl around, dance, or practice yoga.

Cook at Home. The apartment has a cook's kitchen with a large two-oven, five-burner gas range with a dinette table for 2-3 people. Bathroom has a tub-shower. Dishwasher.

Laundry. Washer and Dryer in-house.

A Little House. The apartment has two private entrances — front and rear. The front entrance is accessible from the street via two sets of steps with six stairs each. The rear entrance is accessible by three steps.

Sunset Vistas. There is a front porch with seating for two for sunset watching.

Outside Space. The rear yard has lovely plantings, a cafe table with seating for two, and a picnic table with seating for six for al fresco meals and BBQs.

Peace and Quiet. The neighborhood is unusually quiet for Los Angeles with very little through traffic.

Stroll. The neighborhood streets are lined with beautiful facades and front yard gardens filled with flowering plants. Free parking on the street.

Walkable. You can walk to restaurants, stores, galleries, bars, clubs, groceries, liquor, and great coffee shops all along Sunset Boulevard and in nearby Chinatown. We regularly walk (or scooter) downtown to Museums on Grand Avenue, Little Tokyo, and the Downtown Arts District.

Cool down. Community pool nearby for a cool-off. New express Metro to Santa Monica and beaces.

Transportation Hub. The area is filled with transportation options, metro, bus lines, metro bikes, scooters that allow easy access to most points in the City within 30 minutes.
