A lush, tranquil hideaway, with canyon views of hilly Elysian Heights, this charming home has been a creative catalyst and sanctuary for writers and artists for generations. Pass through the Pagoda entry, and cross an arched bridge over the koi pond, past the Zen-inspired garden, to the large wraparound deck perfect for California indoor/outdoor living. Living room with walls of windows, dark beams and skylight, offers lots of natural light with an open, airy feel and afternoon cross-room breezes. Slip into the antique clawfoot bathtub, with a view out to the eucalyptus grove that lets you relax with nature, or head out for a hike up the Baxter Steps and into Elysian Park. Awake to birdsong and the sound of falling water. Go out to the deck or balcony and experience the tranquil nature of colorful koi hoping to be fed, and the endless variety of local and migrant birds that stop by for a sip from the pond. The pond itself is home to a variety of medium size koi, goldfish, mosquito fish, dragonflies, and the resident lily pad-hopping frog. A short stroll down the hill offers your choice of Lady Byrd, Valerie Cafe or Canyon Coffee, on your way to a great selection of shops, cafes and restaurants, and to the lake in Echo Park. The home is equipped with Central A/C. Located on a quiet street, there's consistently 2-3 open spots immediately in front of the house. Street has no through traffic, very low foot traffic, and no parking restrictions. TERMS: $6,850 monthly rent Flexible lease terms. Available for short term to long term rentals (1-12 months).
