Hech, 54

Room for rent in charming downstairs unit in a traditional style duplex in Venice. Building is set back from the sidewalk so that the tenant walks past grass and roses to enter the unit (as opposed to the newer condos and buildings that have fences right up to the sidewalk so you feel like you are isolated from the world when you enter.) Easy walk to Abbott Kinney with its variety of restaurants and cafes and to Ralph's and Whole Foods and many other stores and to public transportation.
