Set amongst the foothills of Red Rock Canyon, this historic cabin dating back a century endures today as a charming, beautifully maintained and updated cottage, one that captures the enduring romance of Old Topanga. The main home is a one-bedroom, one-bath creative retreat filled with vintage character, featuring an original rock fireplace and canyon views. Set back and above Old Topanga Canyon Rd, the home feels immersed in nature, with birdsong and towering trees creating a peaceful sense of seclusion. Below the main residence, a self-contained studio apartment has its own sleeping area, bathroom, galley-style kitchen, and private terrace.Outside, the property unfolds as a private garden sanctuary. A thoughtfully planted pollinator garden filled with native plants attracts an abundance of birds and butterflies, with large enclosed planters for growing vegetables. A wooden hot tub nestled into the hillside offers a tranquil place to unwind and soak beneath the trees while admiring your garden below. A picture-perfect garden shed with French windows and abundant natural light sits at the foot of the property, ideal as a potting shed or art studio. All just a short distance from Red Rock Canyon Park, with plenty of hiking and biking trails close at hand. Topanga Beach is less than ten minutes away.
