Cactus House by AvantStay | Famous Cactus Compound | House in Woodland Hills

Welcome to Cactus House - LA's famous walled cactus compound, featured in E! TV, ESPN, Prime, Fox & Playboy. Cactus House is hailed as “the 2nd most unique CA home", and is truly a notable gem. The home was originally designed in a "southwestern" + "spiritual Indian" fusion. Incredible details throughout the property will transport you in a time capsule of American mid-west history. Boasting 4700 square feet, with no immediate neighbors, privacy is guaranteed during your stay. There is ample parking both on the cul de sac and within the gated driveway which fits six cars.
Cactus House holds a rich history. Over 40 years ago, a former president who lived in the mid-west resided in this home. It was originally smaller, before being driven by truck from the mid-west to California where it sits today. Cactus House has since expanded into this resort-like compound. This exclusive house has been newly furnished and updated as of June of 2023 - book your stay now to be one of the first to experience it.
The expansive estate offers plenty of areas for all groups and occasions. The game room sets the perfect scene for entertaining, featuring a wet bar, pool table, darts, game table with various classic video games, and 55” smart TV. There are ample places to dine, from the formal dining room to the breakfast nook, to the kitchen island barstool seating. The outdoor dining table beside the koi pond is complemented by a propane grill for ideal evening BBQs.
When you’re ready to relax, retreat to the first of the 2 living rooms, and kick back in front of the two 65” TVs. The second living area has a floor-to-ceiling 20 ft tall stone fireplace. A dramatic staircase with a stone fountain nestled underneath leads to four luxuriously appointed bedrooms.
The Primary bedroom greets you with beautiful finished redwood and stone accents. It features a sleeping area, living area with a fireplace and 55” smart TV, workspace, walk-in closet, and 2 balconies. The grand ensuite bathroom offers a walk-in shower, jacuzzi-style tub, fireplace, and large vanity. The rest of your guests are ensured comfort between the two queen bedrooms with ensuite bathrooms, and one bedroom with full over full bunk beds.
The exterior of this property is a wonder of lush foliage, water features, and seating areas. Birds of Paradise, succulents, aloes & cacti decorate the property. Tropical gardens and dozens of palm trees of different varieties surround the pool, complemented by cascading waterfalls. Soak up the sun at the pool loungers, and feel your stress melt away with a dip in the hot tub. On the west side of the compound is a 7500 gallon koi fish and turtle pond. Sit by the soaring 16ft waterfall, and immerse yourself in this outdoor oasis. Choose from one of many places to sit outdoors - sun loungers, poolside couches, outdoor dining table, and multiple balconies with seating overlooking the property.
