I stayed at Sam’s house during the pandemic and rarely left the house and the neighborhood to stay covid safe. It was such a nice “stay-cation.” The neighborhood is beautiful to walk around: gorgeous architecture and plants and views. There is a great farmers market and several fabulous restaurants a short walk away. If you like taking long walks and hikes, Griffith Park is a scenic hour walk away (or short drive.)
The house is well stocked with kitchen appliances - I love to cook and grill, every appliance/knife/etc I needed was there. The backyard is very sunny and the views from the mango treehouse are amazing - a nice to place to have a glass of wine and watch the sunset.
