What This Apartment Offers
LARGE STUDIO with huge *ROOF TERRACE* very NEAR VENICE BEACH. RENTAL TERM NEGOTIABLE, FULLY OR UN-FURNISHED, PETS WELCOME.
Amazing location with Ocean Front Walk, local shops, cafes, Main Street, internet businesses only steps away. Abbot Kinney and the dog park nearby.
Second floor, light and airy, in a small block of four apartments only, built 1930’s so plenty of character.
Large room 20 by 12
approx, hardwood floor recovered this year, four windows on two walls.
Separate kitchen 8’3” by 7’, with all fitted units and sink, fridge, gas cooker, water heater.
Full bathroom with bath/shower, fitted sink units and cupboards.
BIG walk-in closet 7’ by 3’ for hanging/storage, with shelves and rail. Small lobby area for additional shelves/storage.
Approx 400 square feet downstairs, then the same upstairs. A staircase goes up to amazing roof terrace, approx 20’ by 20’, with great views of ocean and mountains. Shade awning and some furniture up there. You can make this a complete outdoor living area, and it’s great in the evenings. Pets also love it.
Free Laundry facilities on site. Bicycles and surf boards can be stored.
Quiet dogs and loud cats are welcome, but I need to meet them first.
The studio is unfurnished, but for an additional sum it can be half-furnished or fully furnished including everything to move in immediately. Past pictures of both shown for illustration only.
The roof terrace currently has basic outdoor furniture, and is NOT shared with anyone else. Pictures show the roof terrace in various past furnishing from basic to designer chic, for illustration only.
NO PARKING except for deliveries. Past tenants have had no problem parking in streets nearby with free 24 hour parking, 2-5 minutes walk away. Parking also on Pacific at weekends, and weekdays except for morning and evening rush hours. Paid garage or parking spots are available nearby. Get a bike!
I do NOT send videos of the unit. Prefer 12 month, but any rental from one month may be negotiable. Available and can be viewed now.
Rent is $2500 per month plus utilities and internet. Water, sewage and garbage paid by owner. First month in advance, plus $2500 security deposit, plus possible small utility/pet deposit to be agreed, so minimum $5000 to move in. Couple can be negotiated for extra rent. No smoking inside apartment. Neighbors are all professional people – so we need a quiet person. Full checks definitely, and past references probably required.
LOCATION: Very close to the beach so it’s wonderfully crazy, but none of my tenants have ever felt unsafe here in our little community, which is just far enough from the boardwalk. Allegedly in the hippest urban hotspot between Rose and the famous Abbot Kinney district. You can walk to the great shops and cafes on Main Street, or stroll/bike along the Venice Boardwalk (or a free bus) to Santa Monica, the Pier and Third Street. Local amenities in this free-wheeling artistic community include cultural, entertainment, shopping and dining. The ocean and sandy beach offers volleyball, biking, basketball and tennis nearby, and surfing, kayaking and fishing. Public transportation to Santa Monica, Downtown, UCLA and Westwood, LMU, Otis, LAX.
It's a wonderful place to live.
