Private, tranquil retreat in a lovely 3-story townhome. Garage parking space. Close to hospitals and studios.

The white console has a drawer with office supplies, and also offers lots of space to store your own stuff. There's also an electric kettle, cups, and a canister for coffee or tea.

The quilt behind the bed was pieced and hand-quilted by my mother.

The 7'x8' closet is behind the white linen curtains.

Beneath the vintage National Book Week poster (art by Maurice Sendak) is a 1930s bookcase with a selection of hardcover novels--and room for your own books, if you're a reader.

***ALERT! THE SHOWER CEILING IS ONLY 6' HIGH. If you're over 5'10", I think this would be difficult for you to manage*** The sweet bathroom isn't huge, but it offers lots of storage space, and the shower has excellent water pressure.

Luxe DKNY green-checked and plush Turkish cotton towels. That's a vintage watercolor of geraniums by V Cleveland, purchased at the famous Rose Bowl swap meet in the 1980s.

Iron and ironing board, clothes hamper, drying rack, space heater, cleaning supplies, a mail organizer, a shoe rack, ample clothes hangers, and baskets of fresh linens. Not to mention plenty of storage for luggage or other belongings. This was my voice-over studio.

In addition to the fridge in the shared kitchen, there is a personal 4.5 cu ft refrigerator/freezer in the walk-in closet. The motor is whisper quiet.

It holds a surprising amount of food and beverages.

A Samsung Frame TV hangs above the vintage 1940s sideboard. All other furniture has been passed down through the generations.

Bosch gas range. Also Bosch dishwasher. The fridge is an old Sears Kenmore French-door warhorse that the appliance guys urge me to hang onto forever. So far, so good. It's fantastic.

The kitchen gets a lot of natural light. The African violets, orchids and the other plants love it there.

Underneath the desk is a Ridwell box. They recycle things that usually get thrown in a landfill. It's a great service. The black box is a FoodCycler, which grinds and dehydrates food scraps for use in the garden.

My grandfather was a writer who taught himself the art of rug-hooking in the 1960s to help him deal with writer's block. These are two of his pieces.

The patio in June. When the star jasmine is blooming, it will fill your room with perfume if you leave the windows open.

The Buddha is carved from an actual sandstone boulder. SO heavy.

The patio tree grows incredible Meyer lemons.

Privacy: even when someone is on the patio, they can't see you in your room unless they crouch down and actively press their nose against the windows--which I promise I will never do. I'm the only one who ever goes out there (except for the Gas company meter reader). There are wood venetian blinds for added privacy as well.

Peaceful, private and plenty of room to relax

My stay in Valerie's place was ideal. The neighborhood is quiet and centrally located. The private, gated parking made me feel safe and secure even coming home late at night, and I loved having a private entrance. The room is larger than most I've stayed in, with brand new amenities and plenty of natural light, space, and quiet to work or relax. Terrific shower and cozy bed; also the shared kitchen is bright and clean. Valerie is an excellent host, available and responsive, but also happy with any level of privacy you prefer. I only stayed for a week, but I plan to stay longer when I return to LA. Valerie's place is a true find, and a home away from home. Highly recommend.

Private, tranquil retreat in a lovely 3-story townhome.

I had such a great stay here and would absolutely recommend it! The place was exactly as described: very clean, thoughtfully furnished, and super cozy. It really felt like a home away from home during my assignment. My landlord was incredibly kind, responsive, and accommodating the entire time. She always replied quickly and made sure everything was taken care of, which made my stay so easy and stress-free. You can tell a lot of care went into keeping the space clean and comfortable. Im really grateful for such a positive experience and would definitely recommend this place to other traveling professionals looking for a cute, well-maintained, and welcoming place to stay!

A Cozy, Private Space with a Calm Vibe

The room is absolutely beautiful, spacious, bright, and very calming. The design and decor feel thoughtful and cozy, and the space is laid out in a way that feels both open and comfortable. The room is well maintained, clean, and inviting. The shared areas are also lovely, with lots of plants and a really warm, welcoming feel. The entire place has a cute, peaceful vibe that makes it feel like a home. I really liked how private the room is, it has its own separate entrance directly from the units parking area, which is a huge plus. The property itself feels safe and well organized, with several neighboring homes behind gated entrances, giving it a small, private complex feel. Valerie was incredibly kind and accommodating, and genuinely attentive to making sure the space met my needs Overall, this is a clean, warm, private, and beautifully designed space with a very attentive and caring host. I would absolutely recommend it.
