About this house rental

Charming 1900’s Arts and Crafts/Craftsman-style, 2-story house in the heart of suburban historic district #1, in small town Highland Park, CA. Wood siding and shingle roof exterior. Updated kitchen and bathrooms with Craftsman door and window treatments. 6 fully furnished bedrooms. 1 non functional fireplace, wood floors, 3 updated bathrooms and an updated kitchen. Fully gated property with parking for 5-7 cars, plus 2 large public parking lots are directly adjacent to the house. Property is located just a few blocks from the 110 freeway halfway between Downtown LA and Pasadena.

The house has an Electric Vehicle charging station if you happen to be driving an electric car, central AC/heat, AC units in 5 of the 6 bedrooms, washer/dryer, flat screens in all rooms hooked up to Roku, and/or chromecast. Access to log in for Hulu and Netflix (if you have accounts), HBOGO, etc. Propane grill in the back, and gated parking for up to 7 cars. The locks on all the bedroom/closet doors are old-fashioned, a skeleton key will be provided. Some closets may be locked and some dresser drawers used for storage. However, there will be drawer space and a place to hang clothes available in each room.

Highland Park is a historic, artsy Eastside neighborhood, rich with Mexicana cultural history, complete with murals, graffiti, taco trucks and fruit stands. The house is close to some great bars and restaurants (The Greyhound, La Cuevita, Antigua Bread, Folieros ) as well as the Highland Theater, which is an art deco theater. There's also several workout studios within walking distance and beautiful nature hiking spots.

Walking distance to several neighborhood Pubs, cafes, coffee houses, authentic Mexican restaurants and hipster restaurants. Also, the 90 year old Highland Theater one block away is adjacent to several other historic buildings. And just recently renovated and reopened, the Highland Park Bowl, featuring fresh made pizzas (made with flour imported from Italy) and an attached microbrewery!

Great Location for Public Transit! If you don't have a car during your stay, even better, because your a few feet from the train station. The Highland Park Metro Rail station (Gold Line) is half a block from the house. It's a 15 min train ride to downtown LA (Southbound) with stops in Chinatown, Union Station, and Little Tokyo and its a 15 min train ride to Pasadena (Northbound). You can also take the train to Hollywood and/or Long Beach. I recommend researching where the train goes so you can decide where you wanna go during your stay. Its a great way to get around in a city notorious for its traffic. If you're flying in, you can grab the "flyaway bus" from LAX to Union Station ($8 I believe) where you can take the Gold line right to the front door of the house.

Great Location if you have a car! The house is located in a great area of Los Angeles from a freeway standpoint. You'll mostly use the 110 since its right by the house, but you'll also have access to the 5 and the 134. Being situated close to so many freeways allows you to take alternate routes when traffic is bad. Its about a 20 min drive to Hollywood, 10 min to downtown, 10 min to Dodger stadium, and 10 min to the Rose Bowl.

We have onsite hosting during your stay; Sam, Zac, or Trevor and Laura will be staying in a separate one bedroom unit on the same property.

Please feel free to call me if you wanna discuss your stay and handle the negotiations/terms over the phone followed by a rental agreement. If you are renting for an event, you will be subject to an event fee.

Perfect place for large group/family
Perfect place for large group/family
The property was perfect for our gathering of nine adults. Plenty of room and the three full baths were perfect. There are restaurants, bars, a donut shop, coffee shops, anice cream shop, and a CVS within walking distance. There's public transportation near too. We wouldn't hesitate to stay here again.

GPS navigation made it easy to find and the security was great. The exterior of the house could use some updating but the front yard was quaint and we met the gardener. He was nice. It's a big house for sure! The oven needs a serious cleaning. When we used it a lot of smoke from burning residue filled the house. We had to open up everything to air out the house and that was successful. We didn't use the oven again. It could use a downstairs tub. The dining area was nice. Loved the china! Den was a little tight but we made do. The back bedroom downstairs is difficult to heat without making the upstairs too warm. Loved the foyer and stairs and the bedrooms upstairs were adequate. Nice big bathroom up there but I was surprised at the size of the tub. I thought the state was experiencing a shortage in water. Anyway, other than the street noise, the Metro and the partying around the block area that kept us up a bit; it was ok. I can't say enough about Joshua. He was great! Thanks for your hospitality.

Great house, convenient location

The house is a beautiful space to share with friends for a wedding we attended nearby. The beds were comfortable and AC worked well. Communication with Zac was great as he kept us informed when an appliance repair person would be stopping by so we wouldn't be surprised. Right next to Gold Line metro with convenient access to downtown LA. Enough parking spots for our group. Thanks for the great stay!

Great spot for family gathering!
Great spot for family gathering!
This great home was the perfect location for 3 generations (ages 16 mos. to 72 yrs!) to gather for a family wedding at The Ruby Street. Access to the metro was so handy for our outings to Universal Studios & downtown Pasadena! Great coffee shops and yummy bakeries in the area. Grocery store & CVS pharmacy close by for any needs. Zac and Josh were very helpful with any questions we had prior to and upon arrival! Would love to return again!!

Great place to stay for several people

We really enjoyed staying here for the Rose Parade. It was right on the Metro and easy to get to the parade. Getting back was tougher as many others rode the Metro but the line moved quickly. Several things nearby. Personally I think it is better to still have a car if you stay here to be able to go places that aren't within just a few blocks. Parking inside a locked gate is nice. We felt safe the whole time. Zac was very helpful with the one small issue we had. Beds comfortable - some soft, some hard.

Huge place. Top notch!
Huge place. Top notch!
Don't judge this book by its cover! You wouldn't guess it from the exterior, but this place is thoroughly modern inside, HUGE, and comfortable. We had a large family group and we never felt like we were tumbling over each other. You'd probably call the neighborhood "up-and-coming," but it felt very safe; no concerns. And the place was real convenient to the 101 freeway, which made it easy to get around LA. No real play area outside for the kids, but some parks an easy walk away.
