According to its listing, this petite cottage in bucolic Santa Monica Canyon has been "featured in Better Homes & Gardens, LA Times Homes and other publications." Built in 1938, the home appears to have been selectively modified/updated at different junctures over the years, and as a result is now afflicted with a case of "Exquisite Corpse" syndrome. On the plus side, however, it's also got some nice hardwood floors, vaulted ceilings, a Dutch door, two brick fireplaces (one indoors, one out), a badass red stove, and lots of lovely mature sycamore and oak trees.
