About this property

Silver Lake Mid-century Nestled in the Treetops

Big, open floor plan with wrap around windows feels like you are sitting in the trees! This top floor of this mid century gem sits up in the hills tucked into the end of a quiet cul-de-sac so feels private and secluded yet you are minutes from all the great restaurants, bars and shops that Silver Lake has to offer. Fast wifi.

Nice open feeling with mid-century furniture, contemporary art, and great hardwood and stone floors throughout.

-self check-in w/keypad
-central heat and air with Nest control & ceiling fans throughout
-fast wifi
-Smart TV 4K Ultra HD Roku TV
-Tuft & Needle non-toxic memory foam & latex beds
-organic sheets and pillowcases & organic towels
-down alternative, hypo-allergenic comforters and pillows
-fully stocked kitchen including gas stove, dishwasher, toaster oven, Blendtec blender, Hurom slow juicer, Coffee Maker, DeLonghi espresso maker, Cuisinart ice cream maker

Parking is street parking. Because we are at the end of a cul-de-sac it is unusual to have trouble finding spots right in front and no alternate side cleaning days to worry about having to move your car. Please be sure to respect neighbors and pay attention to the no parking signs!

*Note that while there are just 2 steps to get into the house itself, the back yard is 2 flights down.

Whole Foods 365 and Trader Joe's are around the corner. Enjoy a walk around the nearby destination Silver Lake Reservoir or take your dog to the dog park.

Central heat and air conditioning with Nest wireless control. You can adjust thermostat between 68-72°. If that range doesn't work for you just let me know. The living room and bedrooms all have ceiling fans for additional comfort.

The 2nd living room can function as a lounge area with tv or be used for overnight guests as needed. Simply remove the back cushions on the memory foam day beds and they become 2 twin XL beds with all necessary sheets, pillows, comforters, etc.

Sharp 55" LED Smart 4K Ultra HD RokuTV with internet access to stream your favorite apps. You can also download the roku app to your smart phone and watch tv with your headset to not disturb others. Fast Wifi throughout the house.

Beds are non-toxic Tuft & Needle, super-comfy mattresses which use a proprietary adaptive foam that has similar pressure relief to memory foam but without the drawbacks of excessive heat and insufficient support. They were one of the first 'mattresses in a box' to be tested by CertiPUR-US and has been certified by UL GREENGUARD Gold Certification and OEKO-TEX that the mattress is free from 'ozone depleters, PBDE flame retardants, heavy metals, formaldehyde, phthalates, and low VOC (Volatile Organic Compound) emissions for indoor air quality (less than 0.5 parts per million).'

Organic cotton sheets, duvets, hypoallergenic comforters and down pillows, and organic towels.

Kitchen has fridge w/ice maker, gas stove, dishwasher. It's fully stocked with dishes, glasses, pots and pans.
-Toaster oven w/Air Fryer
-Blendtec blender
-Hurom slow juicer
-Westinghouse coffee maker
-DeLonghi espresso maker
-Cuisinart ice cream maker

Kitchen staples - all organic - including oatmeal, microwave popcorn, olive oil, vinegar, condiments, salt & pepper, array of spices, coffee, tea, hot chocolate. Help yourself to anything in the pantry. There is also filtered water at the sink.

Laundry room inside the house with washer and dryer with non-toxic Puracy laundry soap.

Tankless water heater so don’t worry about running out of hot water for showers.

Closets are empty for your use with plenty of room and hangers. Empty suitcases can fit in the back of the closet or under the beds which have a 14" clearance.

Large backyard, completely fenced in, with many different types of trees and areas to sit and enjoy.

The space is all yours.

If you need anything just let me know!

The house sits up in the hills so feels private and secluded but you are seconds from great restaurants, bars, and coffee places. Whole Foods 365 is around the corner and Trader Joe's and Gelsons are 5 minutes away. Enjoy a walk around the Reservoir or take your dog to the dog park.

Silver Lake is home to 53 Historic Stairways. The Ivan Hill Glendale stairway - 10 houses down - leads you right down to Glendale Blvd. Cross the street for breakfast at Modern Eats coffee shop, turn right to walk a couple blocks to 365 Whole Foods and take a Lyft back with groceries or turn left to head to yoga or pilates.

Lyft is a great way to get around.

Downtown is 10 minutes away by car and you are near the 2 and 5 freeways and the 101 is close as well.

The property has a walkability score of 69, a transit score of 42 and a bikeable score of 46.

Great Home in Silverlake!

My friends and I enjoyed a nice weekend at this mid century furnished house in silverlake. The property definitely has a mid century vibe and parking was easy to find. We walked to Blair’s for dinner one evening and it was a terrific neighborhood Italian place with great food and wine.

A week in Silverlake treetops

The house was as advertised: in the Silverlake neighborhood, which has easy access to freeways and a number of interesting neighborhoods. 5 minute drive or 15 minute walk to Silverlake Reservoir. Relatively quiet location near end cul de sac street overlooking Glendale Blvd. Nice mid-century modern decor, furniture, windows etc

An absolutely fantastic property and stay

This choice property not only provided comfort but also inspired relaxation and creativity. Nestled in the Silver Lake hills, the huge windows are tucked into gentle trees, giving you the impression you’re in the most well-appointed tree house. The bedrooms were comfortable, the bathroom perfectly appointed, and the kitchen had everything a Chef needed to craft some amazing meals. The owner, Heather, is a gracious host and consummate professional, ensuring my stay was seamless and responding promptly to any inquiries I had. Every aspect of this home, from its flawless presentation to its prime location, contributed to an unforgettable stay. It served as the perfect canvas for creating new memories and provided a quiet haven to return to each day. For anyone looking to indulge in the Los Angeles lifestyle with a touch of elegance and comfort, this property is without a doubt a premier choice.

Beautiful mid-century oasis in the trees

This is a beautiful mid-century house that's tucked up on a little street above the hustle and bustle of Silver Lake. It has one of the nicest kitchen set-ups of any rental property I've stayed at – super stylish dishware, tons of pantry and fridge staples. It was really nice to have a chill, comfortable place to hang out amidst all of our various city outings and our dogs LOVED the woodsy backyard.

Beautiful home with lots of space to entertain

This home is absolutely beautiful! I would have moved in if I could. The two living rooms, dining room, and open kitchen provided ample space for us to gather with friends. All with beautiful views. The house was tastefully decorated. The beds were comfortable. And Heather was very communicative to set things up optimally for us. We travelled with our one year old. He enjoyed crawling around the open space and I was happy that there were outlet protectors, baby plates, and even bibs available. Great location, too. Definitely recommend.

This was a hidden gem.

First I want to thank the host for accepting such a last minute reservation. The place beautiful, the scenery is beautiful, the peace is beautiful and the neighbors were very welcoming and pleasant. I would no I mean I am going to be renting here again. In closing if you looking for a place to relax take in the city and still come back to a home that feels like you are at home. This is it. Once again thank you Heather for everything and opening your beautiful home to strangers. This is not a regular Vrbo. Evans family.

Wonderful stay

Heather’s house is located near the end of a quiet dead end street. Open, spacious, clean, and comfortable. The house overlooks a busy street but you wouldn’t know it (except for distant traffic noise) because the large windows look out into the trees of the beautiful backyard. Very walkable; Whole Foods is a short walk or drive away. You can walk around Silver Lake Reservoir and it’s surrounding hilly neighborhood. Heather answered questions promptly. Kitchen well-equipped, great shower head, comfortable beds with quality linens. Highly recommend!
