The furnished apartment is located on the second floor, with three West facing small balconies that provide gorgeous light at all times of day. There is a built in breakfast nook in the kitchen, which is well stocked with cooking tools, a toaster oven, microwave, mini Cuisinart and standard sized gas stove and refrigerator. Hardwood floors, washer/dryer in the apartment. Fast Wifi.

It is my home and has been for 10 years. The building is old (1920s) so there are some quirks - very tiny bathroom and the weirdest closet you've ever seen. (But I will of course make room for your stuff.)

The neighborhood is amazingly walkable for Los Angeles - just around the corner is a coffee shop and several restaurants and an amazing breakfast food truck that comes daily, and Whole Foods is walking distance. (Well, depending on what that means to you. It's about a 10 minute walk.) I live across from two schools, so during the day there is a background noise of kids playing. I work from home and it doesn't bother me a bit. People are walking their dogs all day and eve - so if you are a dog lover-- there are always some to gaze at out the window.

I built a daybed on one of the balconies which is a lovely place to be outside but not. The bed in the bedroom is only a full size mattress, alas. That's all that will fit in the room. But it's super comfortable! There are some rumpled blankets and cluttered spots in these photos - they will all be made orderly and pristine by the time you are here. I am just in a hurry to get this listing up!

Parking is street parking only, but it's always easy to find a spot. (In my 10 years here I've never looked for a spot for more than 5 minutes).

The apartment has its own entrance and address. When you open the front door with a key, you are in my place. The staircase is old, and steep (20 steps), so this is not a great place for people with mobility concerns or small children. Maximum two people, and sorry, no pets.
