Stayed for a long weekend. Magda was an excellent communicator and everything was as presented. It’s a beautiful home. If it’s not the hottest time of year, definitely pay a little more to heat the pool…it gets really warm and feels great.
What to know: as other reviews mention, the driveway is very steep (short, too). Smaller cars fit in the garage, which is flat, but it’s a little nerve-wracking getting in and out with each visit to the home. Our driver was a cool cucumber, but if I were the one behind the wheel I would’ve just parked on the street.
Speaking of the street, this home is located on a very busy thoroughfare. While Magda has made every effort to make visitors feel like they are away from it all, time at the pool is accompanied by a cacophony of traffic screeches and rumbles. We had to pause our poolside convos often until a particularly loud motorcycle or truck had passed.
But, these things were minor in comparison to the proximity to Beverly Hills and West Hollywood, the pool, the 3 bedrooms with baths (the fourth bedroom has a powder room at the other end of the house), and the midcentury modern aesthetic that helped us have a fantastic weekend.
