Charming Walk Street Hideaway by Open Air Homes

Summary:
Marco Place is a quintessential Venice bungalow, located on a walk street that ensures privacy and serenity, while still being only minutes walking distance from the heart of Venice Beach’s shopping, nightlife, and restaurants on Abbot Kinney. If you have yet to experience Venice Beach living on a walk street, we highly recommend you try! This 2 bedroom 1 bath home was recently renovated to include new amenities, furniture, lighting, linens, a new TV, fine art, outdoor seating and a fire pit.

The Space:
Recently remodeled and redesigned by a local interior design firm that specializes in hospitality design, this home invites our guests to embrace a luxurious approach to the indoor-outdoor lifestyle that Venice Beach is known for.

Located on a walking-only street, as you walk up you are welcomed into the space by the lush landscaping indicating you have arrived at your oasis of serenity in the heart of Venice.

This fully realized home is stocked with brand name amenities and furnishings, ensuring you will have all essentials you need for your stay while also including small design touches that elevate the home into a unique vacation experience unlike most vacation rentals.

The redesigned kitchen is fully stocked for any cooking enthusiast, and with a dining room capable of seating 6, it's the perfect place to enjoy a home cooked meal with your family and friends. There’s also a smaller breakfast nook that seats 4, for a more intimate and casual dining experience or workspace.

The house provides a sensory experience in textures and colors, from the tiled floors, unique wavy carpets, a soft leather couch, outdoor seating, and soft throw blankets strewn throughout the house, all providing limitless cozy and comfortable spots to relax or work. Natural lighting will ensure you are getting the best of LA’s weather, while intriguing soft lighting fixtures from bring the home to life at night.

In the private yard, you’ll find outdoor couch seating for 6 by the brand new fire pit, inviting guests to enjoy a morning coffee in the sun or a cocktail hour with friends beneath the moonlit sky.

Marco Place was designed with indoor-outdoor living in mind. Every room feels airy and bright, allowing guests to move freely between spaces while still feeling connected to activities going on elsewhere in the home.

Guest Access:
Guests will have access to the entire home. There will be no one else on the property, other than the weekly gardener, unless otherwise discussed with you in advance. The onsite garage is off-limits for guests and is for homeowner use and access only.

All 30+ day stays require mid stay cleaning by our professional housekeeping team. This is a full clean of the house and change of linens. We pay our cleaners a fair, livable wage and we always strive to hire the best, most reliable and honest cleaners in the business. This team is the backbone of our company, and they work tirelessly to ensure every stay is a clean one!

The Neighborhood:
When visiting Venice Beach, you are entering the most walkable and bike friendly city in all of Los Angeles. We recommend exploring the great restaurant scene on Abbot Kinney, Rose Ave and Main/Pacific, as well as on the boardwalk. There has been a revival of the restaurant scene, and the shopping has always been top notch, especially on Abbot Kinney.

Be sure to walk Abbot Kinney, especially on the weekends, if you want to see a great example of the vibrancy of this community. If you’re up for a bike ride, take the path North all the way to the start of Malibu, or there is a secret path through Marina Del Rey that can take you all the way down on a bike path to Redondo.

We recommend walking the walk streets, and seeing all of the unique architecture throughout the entire community. The canals are also worth checking out to view the unique history of Venice Beach.

Getting Around:
Most people choose to have a car when visiting Southern California. There are an abundant amount of unique and significant attractions within two hours of this home. If you’re an explorer, we recommend a car.

If you’re the type that wants to arrive and relax at the house on your vacation, Uber and Lyft are readily available as well.
