Breathtaking gardens situated in the Santa Monica Mountains of Southern California are available for your wedding, event or film shoot. This one of a kind property was built in 1949 and has been beautifully renovated from its original use as a hunting cabin into an elegant California cottage with amazing landscape design. A winding stone driveway with rock walls leads to this private and secluded property one block from Topanga State Park.
The gardens and the house flow as one with impeccable views of the mountains and sky. The property is completely landscaped and surrounds the house 360 degrees. A large deck off the living room looks out to gardens below with ponds and gazebos handcrafted with branches and tree trunks from the property. Native rock pathways and walls lead you throughout mulitple gardens.
The gardens contain over a thousand different plant and tree species. Various garden themes exist, such as the white garden, tropical garden with waterfall and pond, entrance garden and a spring-fed pond garden graced by grape vines in the lower garden. There is also a lawn area with a beautiful fountain and pond situated in the center where the wedding ceremony can take place. On the large deck is an outdoor living room with couches, tables, lounge chairs, shade structures and canopy - perfect for your reception.
Inside the house, sunlight and mountain views fill the rooms. Nice furnishings with beautiful mahogany floors and peaked ceilings. Charming architecture. The property lends itself to beauty and joy. Truly a must see.
