Jane Lynch's Forever Home

When Jane Lynch finished filming Best In Show in 2000, she decided she wanted a dog and a house. So she adopted her first pup, a Lhasa apso named Olivia, and spent her $70,000 life savings on a cabin in L.A.'s bohemian Laurel Canyon neighborhood. But the house wasn't built to last, and after it suffered severe structural issues, Lynch tore it down and built a new, two-story abode with a guest house and a studio over the garage where she now resides with her partner Jennifer Cheyne, Cheyne's son Harry, and Lynch's nephew Danny.

“I’m probably going to live here forever,” she tells PEOPLE of the home she fell in love with. “There’s just such peace up here.”

In the living room, Lynch combined a high-end modern sofa and a Roche Bobois chair with a coffee table from CB2 and an armchair from West Elm. She credits Cheyne with giving the home its "completely eclectic" vibe by mixing more rustic and vintage pieces in with Lynch's more modern style.

Animal Lover

Lynch says she hates clutter but collects "old dogs," like 12-year-old rescues Millie and Bernice. (She also has a 2-year-old black cocker spaniel named Rumi.) Lynch wakes up around 4 a.m. every morning to enjoy a cup of coffee and some time with her pets. "Without animals, a house does not feel like home," she says.

An Area to Entertain

Lynch turned to her friend, Will & Grace set designer Peter Gurski, to help her decorate her terrace, which features a rustic bench, orange-and-blue chairs and a heart-shaped light surrounded by greenery. "Always follow the heart light," she tells guests of how to find her main gathering space. "That's a metaphor."

An Ode to Her Production Company

Her neighbor, Spike Stewart, a local artist, painted a colorful homage to her production company, which now hangs outside her home.

“I named the corporate entity from which I work Canyon Lady Productions because I’m a big fan, of course, of Laurel Canyon,” Lynch says in a video tour of the property. “But I’m also a big fan of Joni Mitchell and one of my favorite albums is Ladies of the Canyon. It’s plural, but I am one lady of the canyon. so this sign makes me very happy.”
