Architectural Home...Stroll to Beach through the Canals in Venice Beach

A wonderful location: Stroll 15-20 minutes through the beautiful canals to the beach...on the way, stop by the French Market Cafe for coffee and croissants.
This spacious architectural gem, designed by noted architect, John
Porter, is the ultimate Venice hideaway. It's in the heart of Venice, one of
the best locations in Los Angeles, California. Located on a quiet
one-way street, the famous Abbot Kinney is just steps away. With
vaulted wood ceilings and plenty of skylights, it's bright and airy,
totally relaxing...

The house has a fully equipped kitchen that opens to a private deck,
perfect for al fresco dining. The tropical garden is a tranquil
setting, great for a picnic or siting by the fire pit BBQ. Each of the
three bedrooms sleeps two. There also is a trundle daybed upstairs and a
comfortable inflatable queen aerobed available to sleep up to a total
of 10 guests in beds, or 11 with one on the comfy couch.

Amenities include: tropical gardens, firepit, BBQ, wireless speed
internet, off street parking, fireplace, flat panel plasma TV/DVD, cable,
washer/dryer, a large deck, an espresso machine, and a
beach umbrella. Linens and towels are provided. Concierge service

Just minutes away: You'll find the world-famous Venice Beach Boardwalk
on the beach! On Abbot Kinney Blvd. you'll find specialty shops,
excellent restaurants and trendy art galleries. Just north in Santa
Monica, Main Street is fun; there's the Farmer's Market, the Santa
Monica Pier and Amusement Park, and the hip Third Street Promenade
with shops, restaurants and movies. Just south in Marina del Rey you
can take a cruise, enjoy water-side dining, and take the Flyer over to
Santa Catalina Island.

It's close to everything: the canals, shopping, the Venice
Boardwalk and the white sandy beach, where you'll find volleyball,
biking, basketball and just about every outdoor activity, including
the famous Muscle Beach. Or, head to the water for swimming, surfing,
kayaking, windsurfing, sailing, and deep-sea fishing.
