The Orchard Los Angeles , California

Property Description

This traditional farmhouse brings an entirely new meaning to farm-to-table living. Roll out of bed and take a stroll in your backyard with the provided fruit pickers and grab whatever's in season – lemons, grapefruit, avocados, oranges, apples, figs, grapes, guavas or pineapples! Once you whip up a fresh breakfast with your bounty, you'll be tempted to lounge by the pool and Jacuzzi all afternoon. Surrounded by three ponds, aloe plants, roses and camellias, this garden feels like a lush hideaway – perfect for hammock lounging or lazy lunches on the shaded patio set. Inside the home, you’ll find the interiors match the traditional farmhouse exterior, designed by noted Los Angeles architect Robert Byrd. Byrd was a master of indoor/outdoor living and this home blends each lovely space together quite nicely. You’ll even notice his signature touch – embedding birdhouses into the structure – with a glance to the windows above the second story. We love the cedar wood that’s used throughout, giving the home warm honey hues and a cosy feel. Lounge in the living area in front of the brick fireplace, or retire to bright bedrooms that look out on the garden’s happy trees. You’ll be located right around the block from Valley Village, while Hollywood is just a fourteen-minute drive away. The boutique shops and excellent restaurants of Studio City are just a ten-minute drive away, and so is Universal Studios, should you fancy a visit to the amusement park during your stay.
