Pick fresh tangerines and lemons from citrus trees. Get a capuccino next door at LA's coolest new community cafe. Stroll through Victorian history each day as you approach your home. Enjoy city views and gentle breezes from your perch on your private porch. Find peace and quiet on this little hill above the hustle and flow. Yet, you're still within easy walking distance of so many urbane hotspots — a swank saké bar, art galleries, unique boutiques, chic restaurants, historic Chinatown, and four large city parks. So much so near on foot — a rare find in this Car-O-Polis of LA.
Fully furnished one-bedroom, one-bathroom apartment plus office with 11-foot ceilings, occupying half of the first floor of a Victorian mansion in Angelino Heights, a historic neighborhood in Echo Park. Rent TV with streaming services and High Speed WIFI.
Amenities. Features include central A/C, washer/dryer, Wi-Fi, TV (Netflix, HBO, Hulu), dishwasher, hardwood floors, ample street parking, front and back entrances, and several desk and table areas for comfortably working from home.
The front porch has seating for morning coffee or evening cocktails, with views of downtown, gorgeous Los Angeles sunsets, and birds all around.
Transportation. The central location makes it easy to get to Silver Lake, Los Feliz, Frogtown, Elysian Heights, Downtown, Chinatown, and Highland Park, all within a 10–15 minute drive. Angelino Heights is also a beautiful neighborhood to walk through, with its historic homes, native plant landscaping, and wide streets and sidewalks. There is easy walkable access to dining, parks (Echo Park, Elysian Park, and Vista Hermosa), shops, and groceries throughout Echo Park, with the closest café only steps away.
The quiet and spacious bedroom is furnished with a queen-sized organic Nest mattress, a tansu chest, and a large full-length mirror, leaving plenty of open space to move through the room. The kitchen includes a 1930s five-burner gas range and a dinette table suitable for two people.
We are two artists living and working in Los Angeles, New York, and beyond. One of us is a professor, and the other is an archaeologist, so our home is filled with books and treasures for fellow creatives inspired by culture and nature. We have come to love this apartment and the surrounding area and are sure that whoever stays here will find it a beautiful place from which to look out over the city.
We are looking to rent for any 8-week period during the time window of June 1st to August 31st.
Flexible Option 1: Those 8 weeks of rental don't have to be all in a row (sequential). Example: You could come for 3 weeks, leave for 2 weeks and return for 5 weeks, paying only for 8 weeks.
Flexible Option 2: We're also open to splitting the time period into two single month (or more) rentals. So, if a one month+ rental works better for you, please let us know.
Wi-Fi and several streaming services available (Amazon Prime, HBO Max, Netflix, Hulu, PBS). Sorry, no pets.
Best suited for a couple or an individual.
We would entertain offers for shorter stays at a higher price, as there would be more for us to arrange.
