We are an active retired couple. John used to work in the property insurance business, and then he managed a shopping center near our home that we are part-owners of. Now both he and I are fully retired, I after having served as a campus rabbi at USC, among other places. We love doing home exchange as a way to experience other places in depth.

Read More...Susan and John have a wonderful Spanish home in the center of LA. It was very easy to get to Beverly Hills, downtown, the beach and LAX from their home. The location is truly ideal. The house is confortable and quiet with a nice back yard and patio where one can enjoy an evening meal. Susan and John went out of their way to make our stay memorable. I highly recommend their place and exchanging with them.

Descripción de la casa que ofrecemos en intercambio
We find that home-exchange partners enjoy our charming 1920s Spanish Revival-style home. It is located in a quiet but centrally located neighborhood bordering Beverly Hills; it's near museums, restaurants, movie theatres, shopping and public transportation; a short trip to downtown, the Pacific ocean, desserts, and mountains. We have a mix of older and modern furniture, quite a bit of art on the walls, a lovely garden with pleasant outdoor dining and piped-in gas bbq, and also a charming Italian-like enclosed patio area for dining. Our gardener and cleaning lady continue to come weekly when we are away. Our "Flat" in the finished garage contains a queen Murphy Bed, kitchenette and ADA-compliant bathroom. We have a portable ramp to handle the several stairs required to enter the front or back door of the house itself. Both bedrooms in the house have queen beds.
A car exchange is possible; we have a 2017 Toyota Prius. We have created a detailed Home Exchange Manual to help exchange partners.

Descripción de nuestro barrio y la zona en que se encuentra
Our neighborhood — Carthay Circle — is both quiet and centrally located. It's an peaceful enclave that's within blocks of major intersections with public transportation, useful stores, and a Beverly Hills park with child's playground, exercise equipment, and tennis courts. The Los Angeles Country Art Museum, La Brea Tar Pits, and Beverly Center are a 15-minute walk away; and the Grove is a 10 minute drive/30 minute walk. This neighborhood is mid-way between LA's increasingly lively downtown and the Pacific Ocean, with Santa Monica and other beaches. There is lots of good hiking/walking within easy driving distance.

Dónde ir y qué hacer mientras se esté en nuestra casa
Within a 1.6 mile radius, there are a good hundred restaurants & cafes, a multi-plex movie theatre, the small boutiques of 3rd Street and Melrose as well as the large malls of Beverly Center and the Grove. The major art collection of LACMA is a short drive or walk, as are a good many galleries. La Cienega Park—with its walking/jogging track, child's sandbox and play equipment, adult exercise area outside, lawn areas and picnic tables, and snack bar—is two short blocks away. Also close by is a small shopping center that includes a mailing store, copy & printing store, cleaner, manicure shop, foot and body spas, a fine independent pharmacy, and a popular Coffee Bean and Tea Leaf cafe.
