About this house rental
Welcome to Apé Gedara (`Our House`), a boutique cultural art retreat inspired by Sri Lankan architecture and the creative spirit of Los Angeles. More than a vacation rental, our thoughtfully curated home blends comfort, curated art gallery, story telling and warm hospitality. Sleeps up to 10 guests in four bedrooms with modern amenities. (2 miles LAX), (5 miles SoFi Stadium), minutes to beaches, and top attractions. Apé Gedara is where culture, comfort, and convenience come together.
This is a unique property that maybe a little hard to find for guests. The entrance of the property shares no other neighbors next door. This allows for ample parking along the curbside in front of the house on both sides of the street. The entire yard front and back is enclosed to the public. You and your guests would be completely contained inside the walls of the property. the property is 3,865sqft. It has 4 bedrooms, 3.5 bathrooms a study downstairs and a large 400sqft conference room with a 1/2 bathroom and separate entrance. This room is perfect for a work retreats for educational development, software development hackathons and innovation sprints.
Originally a 2 bedroom 1 bath home, the current house was designed and built by Ramesh Perera in 2007, a native Sri Lankan who wanted to incorporate a /meda midula/ (මැද මිදුල), which is a traditional central open-air courtyard in Sri Lankan architecture. It acts as the quiet heart of a home or historic manor (walauwa), letting in natural sunlight and cool breezes while connecting the indoor living spaces with the outdoors. This was achieved on the 2nd floor of the home connecting the bedrooms as a common meeting place for the family and guests.
We hope you enjoy your stay and appreciate all the art and thought that was put into this experience shared with you.
