Keep Cool in the Poolside Shade at a Charming Encino House

Serve breakfast in a gazebo in a leafy backyard. Stride across flagstones and slip into a tranquil pool. Snooze in a hammock. Return indoors to cook in a family-style kitchen. Discover a spa-like room and relax in a hot bath, or daydream in a beautiful succulent filled garden.

Gorgeous guest home South of Ventura Blvd with parklike grounds and pool. Heart of celebrity studded Encino. Attached to the main residence by a sealed hall, this 5-Star oasis is a separate 1800 sq. ft. residence with own private entrance. Two queen beds, plus two pull out full sized beds and single mattress for kids. Sunlit ensuite-bathroom with double sink, large soaker-tub and shower upstairs. Dwn-Strs bathroom has large shower. Huge walk-in closet upstairs. Loft area with cathedral ceilings creates open feel for entertaining or relaxing. Fully equipped kitchen with service for eight. 2 flat-screen T.V.’s with full list of Direc-TV channels and hi-speed internet access.
Shopping, restaurants, grocery, Starbucks and Jamba Juice less than a mile. Getty Museum and Universal Studios are a short drive, and Disneyland is under 45 miles. Close access to westside of Los Angeles (Beverly Hills, Century City, Santa Monica, etc.), and less than one mile from some of the best hiking trails in the city.

We are here for our guests anytime, and usually never more than a few minutes away.

Located in an enclave of multi-million dollar residences, the Encino area is home to many celebrities, and is one of the most desirable neighborhoods in all of Los Angeles. Explore close by Ventura Boulevard, a 20-mile stretch of shopping, restaurants, eclectic shops and more. Centrally located to Beverly Hills, beaches, museums and downtown, this area truly has it all.

Please note that we have 2 very friendly dogs that live in the main residence. They are NEVER allowed in the guest house, whether we have guests in residence or not. If you or your family has an allergy or is otherwise disinclined to be around dogs, it's quite easy for us to make sure that they are confined to areas where guests won't interact with them when they are coming, going or in the backyard. If not, and you'd like to meet our pooches, then "woof-woof," because they'd love to meet you!....

Our time in town was short, but that did not matter to the hosts, Kat and Logan. This home is perfect for going out, enjoying all things in and around LA and coming back to a quiet, secluded, relaxing home. You can put your feet up and relax in the pool and hot tub while giving all the belly rubs to a super sweet pup. 10/10, would absolutely stay again and for a much longer stay.

The stay at the Lander's guest house was simply idyllic. As former Southern Californians, the beautiful and expansive garden was such a nostalgic joy to behold while swimming or just lounging in the yard. The area is safe. Kat and Logan are very friendly and normal, just like old friends you've always known. My kids and I were at Universal Studios all day and then enjoyed the house and pool after. Definitely better than a hotel. Everything was very comfortable.
