Property Overview

An incredible furnished lease opportunity at the top of Laurel Canyon, this private 1950s post-and-beam residence pairs timeless architectural character with effortless indoor-outdoor living. Set above the street on a quiet cul-de-sac with no homes directly behind, the two-bedroom, two-bath home spans 1,413 square feet and features pitched beam ceilings, concrete floors, casement windows, skylights throughout, and a brick fireplace. Thoughtfully curated mid-century furnishings make the home completely turnkey, while the primary suite offers custom white oak built-ins, a king bed, and an en suite bath with a rain shower. The second bedroom includes a queen bed and its own private outdoor entrance, complemented by a full bath. Multiple outdoor spaces extend the living experience into the surrounding landscape, beginning with a front deck and continuing to a terraced garden designed with intimate spaces for dining, entertaining, and relaxing. James Perse outdoor furnishings, infrared heaters, a teak hot tub, and an outdoor shower create a serene setting, while garden paths lead to secluded nooks and a meditation platform above. Timed landscape lighting, automated irrigation, and weekly gardening make the grounds easy to enjoy and maintain. Additional highlights include a carport, two entrances, pet-friendly accommodations with approval, and a location within the Wonderland Avenue Elementary School district, just minutes from Studio City, Universal City, and West Hollywood.
