About this property

Private, secure and lovely home minutes from Universal and Hollywood

Relax and enjoy the large front yard and mature citrus trees from behind the privacy of a fence with remote controlled gated entry. Open the french doors off the living room and sip your morning coffee on the patio amidst the vibrant purple bougainvillea. The grapefruits are easily the most fragrant and juicy I've ever had. If oranges are in season, pick some right off the tree and make some fresh squeezed juice

LA always has great weather but tends to cool down at nights in the 60s so enjoy that outdoor Cali lifestyle! Grab some logs from the woodpile and enjoy a nice fire in the chiminea while having a glass of wine or whiskey

The living room features a large sectional couch that easily seats 5 and there's a super comfy chaise lounge big enough for two. There is currently a 70" Sony HD SmartTV! Cable is through HULU streaming app along with Netflix and AppleTV hooked up- just sign in to your accounts to stream. There is also a Sony DVD/BluRay player and surround sound system for recreating that theatre-like experience. Many DVDs to choose from direct from the studios- if coming during Awards season many are still in the theatres. Bluetooth speaker streams any music platform you prefer (Spotify, Pandora, etc) directly from your smartphone or tablet. High speed wifi and a wireless printer available for you to print out boarding passes or amusement park tickets.

There is a gas bbq directly off the kitchen for grilling out and enjoying meals on the patio.
Please clean the grill after you use it.
There is a new 11ft cantilever umbrella to protect you from the sun yet still enjoy the outdoors.
Patio table comfortably seats 6. The seat cushions are brand new. Please put them away when not in use to keep clean and prevent fading

Long secured driveway can safely park your cars for free. You'll he just steps from the door. Always safe and convenient and no parking tickets that can put a damper on a vacation :)

Master bedroom is very spacious and over 16 feet wide. Stretch out and enjoy. Queen bed, MyPillow, nightstand, dresser and full closet system with places for shoes, valuables, etc. Plenty of room for your stuff for an extended stay

Second bedroom has a full sized bed and MyPillow and walk in closet. Both beds have memory foam toppers on them for a comfortable nights sleep

Guest access

Entire house is yours except for a side (3rd) room I have locked with my personal belongings and behind the blue curtain off the laundry room. I've just stashed some household items here and do not interfere at all with laundry use.

Interaction with guests

I will be staying in a detached guest house in the rear of the property. The house and guest house are completely separate structures so I can be as far or as close as you prefer.

Please let me know if there is anything I can do to make your stay more enjoyable. Happy to answer questions about navigating LA or activities during your stay

The neighborhood

NoHo is an up and coming neighborhood that is just minutes from Universal Theme Park, Burbank Airport and Burbank's studios (Disney, Warner Brothers and Nickelodean) and its Arts District features many dance studios (such as the world famous Millennium), the Art Institute, the Motion Picture Academy, restaurants with different cuisines, theatres, cafes, juice bars, coffeeshops and bars.

Getting around

I am 5 minutes from Burbank Airport ($7 Uber ride); 2 blocks from National Rental Car; freeway access to the (PHONE NUMBER HIDDEN) and 405 are all no problem.

The Metro NoHo is a 1 mile walk or you can drive and park in the lot. Just 1 stop later on the Red line and you're at Universal, 2 stops and you're in Hollywood

Other things to note

The backyard is currently being developed and is not part of the rental. Of course no work will be done to interrupt guest's privacy

Absolutely fabulous, beautiful property and garden.
We had an amazing stay and Rich’s property exceeded our expectations. It was conveniently located for all the sights, had everything we needed. It was beautifully furnished and felt large. We really enjoyed sitting on the patio in the morning having some breakfast watching the hummingbirds and hawks, the garden was full of nature and so peaceful. The house felt secure and had electric gates. It was a quiet area. Rich the host was a great guy and happy to offer recommendations of where to eat and where to go. I really cannot praise this place enough, it is always scary booking a property online, but this time it worked out better than expected. If we went to LA again this would be top of our list.

We are a family of 3 and we stayed at Rich's house for 6 nights and what an enjoyable experience.When we arrived we were greeted by Matt one of Rich's friends who gave us a tour the house. It is just like the pictures ( Massive T.V ) , house is well stocked of food in cupboards and the Fridge, beds really soft and comfortable, A/C really good. Has a front electronic gate with remote which leads to a long driveway so you can park your car right outside the side door. House is in a well looked after and quiet neighbourhood. Rich is quick at answering emails before and during the stay. Would definitely stay here again, the only down side for us was that we had to turn down the chance to meet Rich as we had something else booked the time. Many thanks Rich for letting us stay in your house.

21st Birthday
We came down to LA from a town called Petaluma & Rohnert Park. The 21 year old wanted to celebrate at Universal Studios, so we did! We had so much fun! I want to come back in a couple of years…. I’m the Grammy portion of this group.

Felt like home
Had a great time. Nice and cozy. Loved the landscape, the high private gated fencing. My husband and my 16 year old and her friend. They were entertained with the ping pong table and overall enjoyed being outside. Plenty of good eats within 10-15 minutes. Target less than 10 minutes away. I mos def would stay again.
