The Space:
No Airbnb fees. Host pays fees. This listing is for a house AND a studio apartment, both on this property.

The House:
Step inside the huge outside door leading to the front patio and follow the path through the front patio past the boulders, dry creek bed, and desert-scape landscape design. There is a quaint covered porch, that leads to the front door of the house.

This property has been featured on the Garden Tour by the Garden Club, twice! One year for the lushly planted backyard and outdoor living space. And another year for the unique use of hardscape and drought-tolerant plants to create the beautiful front yard landscape. Elegant landscape lighting adds ambiance to the front and the back landscaping and living spaces at night. The large driveway accommodates 5 vehicles and there is street parking in front of the home.

Inside, you will find:
Updated kitchen with gas range. There is barstool seating for 2 plus separate dining room seats 6 comfortably. Living room has seating for 8, arcade games, a flat screen TV, and a fireplace-flame surrounded by glass beads at the touch of a button. The fireplace will warm the living areas if you prefer that to the central heat. The air conditioner is new and cools the house to your comfort level.

Walk out the back door of the home to the lovely large patio with its complete outdoor kitchen, hot tub for 6, waterfall and koi pond and fire pit. In the winter after your warm soak in the hot tub, enjoy relaxing by the fire pit with your family and friends. It will keep you comfortably warm even on cold winter nights.

In the summer, you will appreciate the shade on the back patio and the coolness of the water feature. You might even take a dip in the unheated very large hot tub to cool off.

The inside of the home is beautifully decorated in a contemporary-CA style. This is not just a basic suburban house in a basic suburban neighborhood. The thought, effort, and money that went into the decor is evident. You will feel like you are truly on vacation here!

You will notice the attention to detail in this property. There are spaces for working, eating, unpacking and relaxing. All of the beds have tempurpedic memory foam mattresses, soft, quality linens, extra pillows and blankets, toiletries and bathroom accessories, luggage stand. The dining room table seats 8 and the bar seats 3. In the kitchen, cooking oil, seasonings, filtered water, and coffee and tea are provided. There is a laundry room with laundry soap provided.

The Apartment
Walk through the South patio to the separate entrance for the Garden Studio Apartment. This is a large space with a functional kitchenette, a dining table for 4, and 2 queen beds. There is a bathroom with a shower. The back door of the apartment opens onto the back patio of the home. This is an ideal arrangement for large groups because everyone can be together but also have privacy when desired.

We also provide a new, very comfortable office chair in case you have to work during your stay and an eating table and chairs for 4.

The kitchenette includes an electric pot, microwave, coffee maker, fridge, sink, counter space, dishes and supplies. There is also a cutting board, seasonings, and a large free-standing George Foreman grill outside the door.

The beautiful decor is bright, warm and welcoming. Through the back window and door are views of the unique backyard of the main house with its boulders, waterfall, koi pond, and mature landscaping.

The studio apartment, like the home, has toiletries, a hairdryer and magnifying make-up mirror. We provide luggage stands, and an iron and ironing board.

Extra charge for pre-approved pets. Let us know.
We don't have an EV charger, but you charge your electric vehicle for an extra charge. Let us know.

Guest Access:
All areas are for the exclusive use of your group.

The Neighborhood:
Older custom homes and huge mature trees surround this Visalia neighborhood.

The specific street the house is on is a main thoroughfare, (although the house is set back from the street), and is less than 1 mile from downtown, the Convention Center, and the Hospital District. Downtown Visalia has lovely shops, restaurants, and bars.

Getting Around:
If you don't have a personal vehicle, you can walk to most destinations, although you will be on a busy street and a pedestrian walkway over the freeway getting there. The walk is safe but not picturesque. But this helps you avoid having to find parking and makes it safe to enjoy adult beverages since you don't have to drive. Alternatively, there is Lyft and Uber- wait times vary a great deal.

Other Things to Note:
The thermostat may be adjusted down to 72 degrees in the summer and up to 72 in the winter. The fireplace gas insert provides additional warmth if desired- just push the button! There are also ceiling fans in the living room and all of the bedrooms.
Extra charge for pre-approved pets.
Extra charge to charge electric vehicles.
