About this House

Welcome to Highland Park Haven, your cozy getaway tucked away in the historic Garvanza neighborhood of Highland Park. This one-bedroom, one-bath cottage sits behind a classic Spanish Style home occupied by the owner. The house is surrounded by fruit trees and winding grape vines, lovingly cultivated by an Italian farmer for over 30 years.

Inside, you'll find everything you need for a comfortable stay. The cottage is fully furnished and feels like a true home-away-from-home. There's a full kitchen for cooking (just a heads-up: no garbage disposal or dishwasher dishes are done the old-fashioned way, by hand). The bathroom features a deep soaking tub with a rain head shower, perfect for unwinding. The bed is a comfy memory foam king sized for you and a partner, or to stretch out on alone. You'll also have a mini-load washer and dryer, AC and heat, and your own covered parking spot tucked away behind the property.

Set in a quiet, green, and private space, Highland Park Haven is perfect for artists, remote workers, or anyone looking for a peaceful home. And when you're ready to explore, you're just minutes from the heart of Downtown LA and the charming streets of Old Town Pasadena close enough for adventure, yet tucked away enough to relax.

    "If you’re a highland park native then you know we are surrounded by 2 gangs it used to be 3. Dont be too freely into thinking you can do what you want and talk crazy to anyone here because it doesnt end up nice. Shootings still occur even if its gentrified enough. Be cautious, be alert and mind your business."

    "The school system needs to improve a bit ...mixing the different background, socioeconomic is important. It will change in few years . "
  • Emily A.

  • Emily A.
    "There are pockets of unsafe areas that are somewhat easy to spot. Other than those areas you’ll be safe. "
  • Alejandra V. B.
    "The anual parades, Christmas and car shows, the farmers markets. Annual music events. Need to have a 4th of July fireworks show"
  • Crystal F.
    "There are sidewalks. However, many dog owners leave their dogs in their front fenced yards which leaves them overly aggressive & can be quite uncomfortable when walking your dogs, especially if you have small dogs and a huge aggressive pit bull tries to jump through their fence. I see why the neighborhood has received the nickname “Highland Bark.” While this treatment of dogs is inhumane, it also lends to an uncomfortable stroll with your furry friends. In addition, apparently “illegal” doesn’t seem to apply to fireworks in this neighborhood. They’re pretty much a year round event here and several months leading into July you’ll hear nightly fireworks which traumatize most dogs. Just being real. This isn’t an ideal dog neighborhood unless you don’t care about your dog. "
  • Benny16mm
    "I’ve lived here for 6yrs, and out of all the 3 other areas in LA I’ve lived. This place feels the most like a community."
  • Tracy P.
    "Several young families in the neighborhood, ranging in socioeconomic backgrounds. Kids are often heard and seen playing in their yards. Sometimes there is sidewalk chalk art."
  • Katherine F.
    "Easy enough. Small, old streets and lots of pedestrians so it’s important to drive slow. It’s mostly residential and very hilly so everything takes a bit of time. "
  • Erica R.
    "People don’t pick up after their dogs and it’s upsetting as it’s such a great neighborhood. Some people have their dogs sleep outside which you can hear barking. "
  • Katherine K.
    "The local artists’ events are what really make it special...from No WiFi at the Hi Hat or mariachi music at the first Friday art fair. It’s especially fun when the Bob Baker puppeteers bring their marionettes across the street to the park for the kids to enjoy."
  • Cindy W.
    "It is pretty easy to get around because of easy access to several freeways. Getting to surrounding areas is easy too, traffic is never too heavy."
  • Sandy M.
    "We love our city of Highland Park, location is best to everything. If you need Downtown 10 minutes, next to Pasadena, Glendale. You want Beaches 30 minute drive. Thinking mountains for skiing, 1 hour away. This is the best location close to everything!"
  • Tracy P.
    "I work in Pasadena and live in the Garvanza area of HP. I primarily drive, but have walked to the Gold Line stop (about 1 mile from where I live) to work and biked. My husband sometimes works downtown. His commute is 40 min during rush hour, 20-25 outside of rush hour."
  • Meghan
    "It’s a great place to walk your dog ~ there is level ground and easily walk to shops and take your dog on a stroll!"
  • Collin C.
    "A charming neighborhood feel with a diversity of people, restaurants, bars, music venues, and shops. Highly walkable. You could potential do all your errands on foot. A private residential feel with amazing commercial options. A low key vibrant vibe. "
  • Collin C.
    "Lots of dog owners in the neighborhood. Some are more walked than others. There are old school guard dogs as well. "
  • Nhen44
