Jeff Scharf purchased this house in 1992
Loved it.
We loved our stay! It's our second stay here and hope to one day stay again! I think any family would enjoy it. It's close to the beach, the town is walkable and the house itself has a great yard for kids and adults to enjoy.
Lovely house in a great neighbourhood. Lots of space, inside and out. Nice garden for kids to play in - with lots of games provided. Well kitted out (with some nice touches like toiletries provided). Kitchen maybe lacked some crockery for a full family of 6, but it wasn't a major issue. The interior of the house is a little old, but it's tidy and clean and full of character. The garden could have done with being a bit better maintained - but again this added to the character. It would also have been perfect it had a pool - but I guess you can't ask for everything! Most importantly the owner was great - very helpful before we arrived, when we arrived and during the stay - which really made a difference.
House is stunning and Jeff was extremely helpful! Even had welcome Sunflowers to greet us!
Easy access to major attractions (Santa Monica, Malibu) and lots of great places to eat/explore.
6 of us stayed for a wedding and it was a quick easy/walk to the grocery/Starbucks.
We stayed here with our baby and found it a perfect place to relax. We were so comfortable we barely wanted to leave, although we forced ourselves to leave for some hiking in Temescal Canyon, a short walk away. Jeff was a great host and very responsive. We look forward to staying here again next time we are in LA.
We stayed at this home with two families while visiting LA for a wedding. Gorgeous home and garden! Everything in the home is tastefully done - furniture, linens, decor, dishes. Very French country. Kids loved the big fenced garden, ping pong table, and grassy volleyball court. Thank you, Jeff!
