As someone who grew up in Culver City, this house checks off all the boxes:
(1) great location: convenient to grocery stores (Ralph’s is across the street; Pavillions, Whole Foods, Sprouts, and Trader Joe’s within 5 min); lots of dining choices within walking distance (Sushi Mashiko and Denny’s were our faves) and many more within 5-15 min driving distance (downtown Culver City, Culver Center, Fox Hills mall, Century City, etc.), including many distinctive (and affordable) Culver/CA eats: Tito’s Taco’s, Johnnies Pastrami, Versailles Cuban, In-N-Out, Roscoes, etc); 5 min walk to Starbucks and Target!
(2) the ocean breeze and a delightful courtyard with a table and chairs to dine al fresco
(3) comfortable: firm beds, comfy sofa, and cute dining area; washer and dryer (genius to have it located outside to minimize noise and heat from the dryer); clean and well equipped kitchen w/ a stainless steel fridge w/ice maker; fenced in courtyard with a zen water fountain and so much greenery (felt private and minimized street noise)!
(4) work-from-home friendly: internet access and desk + chair
(5) parking: lots of street parking, even on the 1 day a week there is street cleaning (you will perfect your parallel parking skills!)
(6) good entertainment: cable tv & Alexa (although we didn’t use it); within walking distance to a park (basketball courts and tennis courts), the Ballona Creek bike path, and hiking trails are nearby in the hills.
Chuck and Adrian are welcoming, responsive, and ideal people to rent from. When we had a small issue with the shower, they responded immediately and got the issue fixed.
Overall, if you are looking for a clean, cozy, and convenient rental with friendly and responsive hosts, we would highly recommend Chuck and Adrian’s home.
