<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">Master bedroom has a king, while the two smaller bedrooms each have a queen. There is a small bathroom off the master bedroom with a shower. The main bathroom is also small but with a tub. The bedrooms are filled with art (from originals, prints, posters, to giclèes), as this home is about inspiration.</span><br />

<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">Set on 1 1/3 acre, as much natural desert as possible has been kept to make it feel like it's along a desert trail with cactus, ironwood trees, and palo verde. </span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">There are three patios. The first one is beyond the dining room and kitchen with its own table and chairs to sit and enjoy the birds or grill a steak. This patio is fenced to make it safe for small pets but has a large gate that can be opened for those most interested in a full view to photograph quail and other visitors from LaCañada wash half a mile away. These can include many types of birds, rabbits, rodents, bobcats, javelina, coyotes, and snakes (which sometimes are rattlesnakes).</span><br />

<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">The pool area has its own fence both from the patio yard and the desert beyond. It is not heated but it is maintained for swimming year round. There is a second outdoor table and chairs for dining as well as a sunken patio with a small fire pit (only safe to use briquettes due to fire risk).</span><br />
