About this house rental
Cozy furnished 3-bedroom, 3-bath home behind a private gate in Glassell Park, designed for stays of 30 nights or longer. It offers a full kitchen, in-unit laundry, central air and heat, two work desks, two assigned parking spaces, a front patio and a private backyard screened by tall trees. A comfortable fit for relocations, work assignments, insurance stays, study or time between homes, close to Atwater Village, Silver Lake, Dodger Stadium and Downtown LA.
The space
Bowie House is ideal for families for temporary and midterm housing, as well as guests on work assignments or extended holidays in LA.
The house offers a peaceful escape from the energy of the city. Set within a gated compound at the end of a quiet residential street, it is surrounded by birdsong and sits directly across from a newly renovated family park.
Although the setting feels calm and tucked away, you are still just minutes from major freeways, lively LA neighborhoods, and a great selection of restaurants, bars, cafés, cinemas, theaters, and work-friendly spots. Silver Lake Reservoir, Griffith Park, and the LA River are also close by whenever you feel like walking, hiking, cycling, or simply spending time outdoors.
The interior is curated, colorful and creative rather than staged. Details include a graffiti mirror created by a Los Angeles musician and artist. Work desks in Bedroom 1 and Bedroom 3 give two guests separate places to focus.
