Skyhill Modern Lux with Hot Tub, Walk to Universal

Hollywood Rock & Roll legends lived, played, jammed, and recorded music in this home in the 1960 and 70's. Memorabilia adorns the walls. Regular visitors to this home include legends nearly everyone old enough worldwide has heard of.

To this day the little cul-de-sac is home to working musicians, actors, and entertainment professionals. It's just fun knowing you are surrounded by many celebrities you know in the Hollywood Hills adjacent to a #1 global studio. We can't say, but you might see!

On a quiet cul-de-sac 10-min-walk-close to Universal Studios Hollywood Theme Park. A truly complete and exciting Southern California indoor-outdoor year-round home away experience.

The home sleeps 10. Enjoy a stylish experience at this centrally-located place.

Fabulous all-new furnishings, custom-built features throughout, year-round indoor/outdoor living. Your highly desirable hillside locale is private enough to feel worlds away while still being close to all the action.

LIVING AREAS
The downstairs with open flowing living area, dining, and kitchen of modern design with ample seating, a sleek gas fireplace, a pool table with table tennis option, set of 5 pair of dumb bells from 5 lbs to 15 lbs for exercising, two massive flat screen TV’s all flowing right out the triple-wide-glass door to equally fabulous outdoor amenities. And 2 bedrooms, 1.5 bath conveniently on the 1st floor and now with 5th bed sofa queen sleeper in Den.

All new gourmet kitchen with more than ample marble countertop space, and a full suite of new appliances with a central bar-height seating/serving island connecting indoor and outdoor dining tables and combined entertainment spaces. A perfect set-up for family, working group, or the get-a-way of friends. The outdoor dining just feet from the indoor kitchen and a natural gas BBQ grill.

When it’s time to eat, gather at either of the indoor or outdoor tables or both combined. Find a convenient half bath off the main living space.

This is a great place. It was clean and spacious, and very close to Universal studios. (It cost us $9-12 to Uber over.) The neighborhood feels safe and was very quiet. The beds were comfortable. The host checked in on us a couple of times and was very friendly. I have no complaints.

Great base for our group!
We had a great stay here. We loved the open, modern house (so much larger than our own!) and the music history behind the house. We enjoyed unwinding in the hot tub every night. The location was great for going to Universal and exploring the Hollywood sights, and the house was a nice size and laid out well to comfortably accommodate our group of 8 (two families).

Fantastic stay. The house is huge. Incredibly close to Universal Studios but a pretty residential street up and away from the busyness of it all. Great way to enjoy all Hollywood has to offer in the Hollywood Hills.

Great Family Gathering Place
We really enjoyed our stay at Skyhill. We had an 80, 59, 58, 33, 31, 30 & 15 month old staying and all were comfortable. The home is very clean and the open concept is great. We enjoyed cooking in the kitchen and grilling and played games every night on the large island. Very convenient to where my son lives and hope to stay again.

Great House in a Great Location
The whole house was bright, modern and comfortable but the bedrooms were especially roomy and luxurious. The house had every appliance you could need and a lovely outdoor space with comfortable seating, a fire feature and a hot tub for morning coffee and evening wine. The high end appliances came with very useful instructions for their operation. All in all a wonderful place to stay.

Darryl was very easy to communicate with and help us with any questions we had. My husband kept commenting on how comfortable the master bedroom bed was. We would definitely stay here again if we were in the area.

Beautiful area
Beautiful home in a beautiful area! It was quiet and comfortable. The kitchen was basic and I was wishing it had a griddle or waffle iron for breakfast but most people probably don’t want to cook while they’re on vacation so I get it. The listing did say it was a five minute walk to universal studios, but we found that it was much longer with hills so it was easier to either drive or get an Uber instead. Overall we were very happy with our stay!!

This house was perfect for our family. The floor plan is open and the bedrooms are situated for privacy. It was clean and had everything we needed. It has a lovely private back yard too. The location to Universal Studios made it so easy to come and go from the home to the park and back again. The neighborhood was nice. The manager gave us all the information we needed and made everything hassle free. I highly recommend this property.

Great location for universal
Great location if visiting universal studios . Quick 5-7 minute Uber . Ubers were always available within a few minutes . It’s up in the hills so if you’re visiting other attractions in Hollywood is about 20 min away so if you’re not doing Universal Studios, I would find something closer to the other Hollywood attractions. Very quiet neighborhood, pretty strong regulations on noise after 10 PM. That was fine with us since we had young kids and we’re in bed early. But if you’re there with a group of adults wanting to be outside after 10 PM and have a few drinks and laughs, this place might make you feel uncomfortable. This place is well-kept, modernized refinishing. Only major complaint is not very many towels and they’re pretty scratchy so you might wanna bring some of your own towels.

The house was great and a short 3min drive to Universal. There are food places and supermarkets 5min away so it's a very convenient spot. The house was clean and beautiful and spacious. I would recommend to stay here if you're looking for a relaxed and chill place to stay after a long day of seeing the town. No house parties since being quiet and no loud outside activity is not allowed after 10PM.
