This listing is for a house AND a studio apartment, both on the same property.
The House:
Step inside the huge outside door leading to the front patio and follow the path through the front
patio past the boulders, dry creek bed, and desert-scape landscape design. There is a quaint
covered porch, that leads to the front door of the house.
This property has been featured on the Garden Tour by the Garden Club, twice! One year for the
lushly planted backyard and outdoor living space. And another year for the unique use of
hardscape and drought-tolerant plants to create the beautiful front yard landscape. Elegant
landscape lighting adds ambiance to the front and the back landscaping and living spaces at
night. The large driveway accommodates 5 vehicles and there is street parking in front of the
home.
Walk out the back door of the home to the lovely large patio with its complete outdoor kitchen,
hot tub for 6, waterfall and koi pond and fire pit. In the winter after your warm soak in the hot
tub, enjoy relaxing by the fire pit with your family and friends. It will keep you comfortably
warm even on cold winter nights.
In the summer, you will appreciate the shade on the back patio and the coolness of the water
feature. You might even take a dip in the unheated very large hot tub to cool off.
The inside of the home is beautifully decorated in a contemporary-CA style. This is not just a
basic suburban house in a basic suburban neighborhood. The thought, effort, and money that
went into the decor is evident. You will feel like you are truly on vacation here!
You will notice the attention to detail in this property. There are spaces for working, eating,
unpacking and relaxing. All of the beds have tempurpedic memory foam mattresses, soft, quality
linens, extra pillows and blankets, toiletries and bathroom accessories, luggage stand. The dining
room table seats 8 and the bar seats 3. In the kitchen, cooking oil, seasonings, filtered water, and
coffee and tea are provided. There is a laundry room with laundry soap provided.
The Apartment
Walk through the South patio to the separate entrance for the Garden Studio Apartment. This is a
large space with a functional kitchenette, a dining table for 4, and 2 queen beds. There is a
bathroom with a shower. The back door of the apartment opens onto the back patio of the home.
This is an ideal arrangement for large groups because everyone can be together but also have
privacy when desired.
We also provide a new, very comfortable office chair in case you have to work during your stay
and an eating table and chairs for 4.
The kitchenette includes an electric pot, microwave, coffee maker, fridge, sink, counter space,
dishes and supplies. There is also a cutting board, seasonings, and a large free-standing George
Foreman grill outside the door.
The beautiful decor is bright, warm and welcoming. Through the back window and door are
views of the unique backyard of the main house with its boulders, waterfall, koi pond, and
mature landscaping.
The studio apartment, like the home, has toiletries, a hairdryer and magnifying make-up mirror.
We provide luggage stands, and an iron and ironing board.
Extra charge for pre-approved pets. Let us know.

Lisa and James did a fantastic job communicating all the details you need to know for your stay. My stay was very comfortable and I truly felt like this was my home away from home.
