What was once a small dining area has been opened up into a bright kitchen, living, and dining space.

A garden is integrated into a green bench seat, optimizing space in the dining area while drawing the outdoors in.

A flourishing garden grows inside this glass-roofed Victorian home in Melbourne. The skylight creates a sunny space to dine while warm wood tones accentuate this nature-inspired abode.

Guy Vincent Colf, builder and believed architect of the main house, drew this rendering before its construction. The 4,200-square-foot structure was designed in the American Craftsman style, with a shingled exterior, low-pitched roof, and broad front porch.

A series of stairs ascend from the street to the main entrance, connecting to a spacious front garden and terrace as well. Views from the top extend across the Arroyo Seco and toward Ernest E. Debs Park in Montecito Heights.

Sited at the rear of a .30-acre lot, both the 1908 guest house and 1905 main residence are surrounded by dense greenery. A four-car garage is tucked into the hillside.

A Los Angeles Cultural Monument, the Treehaven property in Mount Washington has housed over half a dozen families since a small cottage was first built on the grounds in 1908. A larger house was added in 1915, creating a multigenerational refuge underneath a sprawling canopy of cedar, elm, eucalyptus, and palm trees.

A large long table outside makes an ideal space for events or dining al fresco overlooking panoramas of the desert.

A campfire pit allows for guests to gather and connect amid a garden of cacti.

While the decor is kept primarily neutral, Sarah and Rich incorporate pops of color that nod to life in the desert.

The inn holds 5,000 square feet of patios, outdoor couches and lounge areas, two outdoor bars with sinks, outdoor charcoal grill, and a fountain.

The main living room has a SixPenny couch; Amazon Home goods including a console table and pillows; art by Julia Kostreva and Tucson-based Trevor Mock; custom bar by Fire on the Mesa; custom coffee table by Tucson woodworker Sam Okerlund; saguaro print by local photographer Emily Tartaglia; rugs by Pampa and Soukie Modern; Serena & Lily woven light fixtures; bar stools, woven coffee table, and hanging chair; Barnaby Lane lounge chairs; and pillows by Collective Sol, Spark Modern, Pampa, and Amazon Home.
