About the Home:
Sprawling over almost 7,000 square feet of interior space, the mid-century Lewis-Loughrey Estate effortlessly encapsulates modernist, avant-garde architecture like no other. Step through the dramatic, original bronze-clad Sunburst front door and into the "Crown Jewel" of the San Fernando Valley. This architectural feat consists of three incredible dodecagons (12-sided structures) that contain a total of 7 beds and 6 baths.

BEDROOMS & BATHROOMS
There are seven uniquely designed bedrooms, each with breathtaking views, comfortable beds, and high-quality furnishings to ensure a luxurious and comfortable stay. Six of these dreamy bedrooms contain a king-sized bed, while one has a queen-sized bed. The bedrooms are a haven of relaxation, boasting massive windows and high ceilings, allowing the room to fill with sunlight during the day.
The main house offers a total of five bedrooms, two upstairs which contain king-sized beds and share access to a luxurious full bathroom, and another three bedrooms downstairs which share a second full bathroom.
The guest house has two more gorgeous bedrooms, each of which has an ensuite bathroom. Each full bath is stocked with plush towels and premium shampoo, conditioner, and body wash for your convenience. There are also two half baths, or powder rooms, that cater to the front and back of the house.

KITCHEN & LOUNGE
Enjoy cooking your meals in the main state-of-the-art kitchen. Equipped with updated appliances and plenty of counter space. A quaint modern table with seating for four provides the perfect spot to enjoy a hot cup of coffee in the morning as the rest of your group is waking up. You can enjoy group meals in the formal dining room. Wood-paneled ceilings, leafy plants, and huge windows create a seamless blend between the indoors and outdoors.

Head into the immaculate lounge, which boasts two seating areas and a sunken conversation pit with two opulent floor-to-ceiling fireplaces. There is even more space for your group to spread out if you wish, with a second kitchen and lounge. Although smaller than the main living areas, the sleek second kitchen is fully equipped with everything you’ll need and provides an alternative space for socializing. You’ll find a spacious island with seating for two as well as an oven, a microwave, and a full-sized fridge and freezer.

The open-concept layout makes it easy to chat with your group in the second lounge while a movie or show plays in the background on the flat-screen TV. There is a pool table available for some entertainment.

OUTDOOR AREA
The balconies offer plenty of comfortable outdoor seating, so you can relax in the evening and admire the exquisitely manicured lawn and panoramic views.
The word ‘luxury’ doesn’t do justice to the amazing backyard. Enjoy an unforgettable experience in the private pool while you watch the sun set behind the hills. When you start to get chilly, indulge yourself with a soak in the relaxing hot tub.

sehr schöne Villa mit Mängel im Unterhalt
Die Villa liegt sehr schön und ist es im Allgemeinen auch. Wir hatten eine schöne Woche verbracht. Leider ist einiges in die Jahre gekommen und vieles war defekt. Auf unsere Hinweise bezüglich der fehlerhaften Geräte wurde reagiert, wobei nicht alles behoben werden konnte. Bezüglich der defekten Vorhänge und der defekten Schiebetüre(was ein Zimmer nicht einsetzbar machte) hat auch nach einer Woche niemand Anstalten zur Behebung gemacht. Generell ist das Haus sauber, wohl aber nach USA Standard. Der Pool und Spa waren bei Ankunft nicht gereinigt. Den Spa haben wir erst nach drei Tagen resp. nach dessen Reinigung (auf unser Drängen) genutzt. Die Zimmer sind ansonsten schön und gross. Die Betten für unseren Geschmack zu weich. Alles im Allem ist das eine schöne Villa, die aber viel zu teuer vermietet wird. Zum verlangten stolzen Preis sollte eine gut unterhaltene Anlage erwartet werden dürfen. Abgesehen von den aufgezeigten Mängel, habe ich mindestens einen Ferientag mit Korrespondenz zur Vermieterin eingesetzt. Die hat sich mehrfach entschuldigt, was aber am Zustand der Villa nichts ändert. Insofern leider ein schlechtes Preis-Leistungs-Verhältnis, was mit weinig Aufwand behoben werden könnte.
