About This Home
Nestled between Abbot Kinney and the Pacific Ocean, this TWO-PARCEL property offers a tranquil retreat rarely found in Venice. Spanning two lots totaling 5,390 sqft with over 90 feet of street frontage, this charming two-bedroom, two-bathroom cottage, originally built in 1912, is surrounded on two sides by a lush 4,100 sqft garden. // The home feels spacious, featuring direct access to and views of the garden from both the living room and the bedrooms. A raised bench-height pond, perfect for outdoor dining, and a hidden spa off the primary bedroom enhance this idyllic Venice retreat. // The private garden occupies three-quarters of the property and is a botanical wonderland. Night-blooming jasmine, David Austin roses, crepe myrtle, hydrangea, buddleia, lavender, verbena, camellia, iris, and a towering primrose tree, visible from several blocks away, come together to create a truly magical yard. // The cottage has been thoughtfully updated, showcasing an open kitchen that flows into the dining area and living room. With southern exposure and ample windows, the home is bathed in sunlight throughout the day. // The location at 308 Windward Avenue is unparalleled. Just moments away, Abbot Kinney Boulevard buzzes with energy, offering an irresistible mix of renowned dining, boutique shopping, and a lively coffee scene. Start your morning with a perfectly brewed espresso from Intelligentsia or Menotti's, browse effortlessly cool shops like James Perse, Heist, and Burro, and indulge in some of Los Angeles's most celebrated cuisine at Gjelina, The Butcher's Daughter, and Felix Trattoria. As the day winds down, the neighborhood transforms into a vibrant social hub, where craft cocktails at The Brig and open-air dining under twinkling lights create the perfect evening ambiance. // Just a few blocks west, you'll find yourself at the Venice Beach Boardwalk and the Pacific Ocean, where the city's iconic blend of art, culture, and coastal beauty comes to life. Whether you're cycling along the Marvin Braude Beach Trail, catching an early morning wave, or watching the sun set below the horizon, the best of California beach living is right at your doorstep. Nearby, the Venice Canals, Muscle Beach, and the legendary skate park add to the neighborhood's unique character, making it one of the most desirable places to live on the Westside. // This property is more than a house; it's a sanctuary. Come see this Venice gem for yourself.
