Rent Home Shadow Jade The San Fernando Valley

In Woodland Hills, where the LA sprawl ends and the expansive wilderness of the Santa Monica Mountains begins, this zen treehouse sits on the edge of Topanga State Park. Explore 36 miles of trails through canyons and over mountains, right from your doorstep. Or, make the half-hour drive into the heart of LA for fine dining, theatre and luxury shopping galore. The cottage dates back to 1926 and sits amidst bird-filled trees for a serene retreat. Picture frame windows in the living room present the woodland view like a work of art and natural touches like the alpen coffee table, wood-framed fireplace and collection of houseplants invite the outside in. The wrap-around deck is like hanging out in your own treehouse with stringed lights glowing at twilight and an outdoor heater by the sofa to keep warm. This spot is particularly spectacular at sunset, when the evening light his the Santa Monica mountains in the distance. There’s also a balcony on the first floor and a cacti garden tucked into the hillside for a bit of privacy. Bedrooms are serene with a touch of boho-class, and our favourite is the third bedroom, tucked into the A-frame roof of the cottage by an arched window, like a princess’ secret hideaway.
