Historic Venice house, block from beach, modern updates & yard

Availability: For six weeks from October 1—November 15. A little +/- on either side is... negotiable.

Built in 1920 during the era of Venice's famous canals, the house has been fully restored — new electrical, plumbing, and fiber internet — while keeping the beautiful original bones. Inside, it's peaceful and well-appointed: a modern kitchen with dishwasher, automatic coffee, and ice maker; in-unit laundry; Sonos throughout; full A/C and heat; Apple TV; and two separate desk setups for working. A queen pull-out in the office converts to a second bedroom, comfortably sleeping up to 4.

The location is incredible. The house sits on the Venice/Marina Del Rey border, at the intersection of three of Venice's best walking areas: the beach and boardwalk, the historic Venice Canals, and the Marina del Rey peninsula to the south. The harbor beach nearby is great for paddleboarding; the Venice Pier has the best surf break in the neighborhood with lessons available. The Whaler and Hinano's — Venice's oldest dive bar — are both within a block.

The front yard (shared with a downstairs neighbor) has a fire pit, picnic table, and a beach rinse hose. The private upstairs deck is a great spot to unwind. Plenty of local recommendations on request. Read More
