Set in the palm-tree-lined streets of Westwood, this luxurious mansion is perfect for cinephiles – not only is it minutes away from plentiful cultural sights rooted in the silver screen, but it also has its very own home cinema. Inside, you can enjoy a film, work out in the gym or recline on a cosy couch next to the fireplace. 

Outside, however, is where this mansion really shines. We particularly love the rooftop terrace that affords views of that iconic LA skyline – and its stunning sunsets. Lower down, you can take a dip in the pool and jacuzzi, or perhaps take a charming stroll through the courtyard.

Well placed for many LA attractions, a diverse range of restaurants, art museums and sights are all within a short drive away. Meanwhile, you can pay your respects to Marilyn Monroe and other Hollywood A-listers at Westwood Village Memorial Park, only seven minutes away by car.

Love Marilyn

This elegant Spanish-style mansion blends timeless charm with modern luxury. Light-filled living spaces with soaring ceilings and exposed beams invite you to unwind in style. The chef’s kitchen, with its marble island and top-tier appliances, is made for entertaining. Step outside to a private courtyard, sparkling pool, spa, and BBQ area for your own slice of California paradise. There’s even a private home theatre for nights in. Spread across three grand levels, you’ll need to climb a few staircases. However, every step is totally worth it. It's available only for monthly stays, making it perfect for exploring Beverly Hills and beyond in comfort and style.

Spanish Grandeur

This modern marvel brings the glamour of Los Angeles right to your doorstep. Perfect for a family or group of friends, there’s plenty of space in this sleek and stylish home to spread out and enjoy some private time or socialise as a group here. Step outdoors, and you’ll find sun-kissed terraces adorned with loungers, while the private pool and hot tub offer the ideal spot to relax after a day of sightseeing. Locally, you’ll find Beverly Hills, the Grove, West Hollywood and Century City within a five-minute drive, while a plethora of shops and restaurants are within walking distance. 

LA Delight

Get set to embrace all things Los Angeles as you and your cohort make memories in this modern apartment building. Located just south of La Brea, you’ll be in the perfect location to explore the cultural sights and vibrant sounds of Los Angeles. With access to the whole building, you can make the most of downtime and group socialisation. Whether you’re seeking hiking trails in Topanga Hills or days waterfront in Venice Beach, you'll be in an idyllic central spot to do so. 

With incredible attention to those little details that make for an excellent stay, these L.A. apartments are minimal, dynamic and ever-so-comfy. The plump sofas invite you to sit back and play a few card games, whilst the kitchens are decked out for preparing feasts for you and your loved ones – there’s a barbecue on the roof if you feel like grilling. Spend mornings on the balcony with coffee and end the day with cold beers on the rooftop terrace.

With some of the most iconic LA destinations within driving distance, you can spend the day ambling the boutique stores on Sunset Boulevard (a twenty-minute drive), exploring the artefacts at The Natural History Museum of Los Angeles County (a fifteen-minute drive), or eating barbecue in Koreatown (a ten-minute drive).

The City of Gold

This bungalow has a quiet charm that can be hard to find in vibrant Venice. Built in the early 1900s, this cottage-like retreat takes you back to a carefree time where you hardly realise you're in the sprawling metropolis of Los Angeles. As you arrive under the leafy trellis, you’ll want to stop for a cool iced tea on the wooden slatted porch. Sitting out at this shady spot, the delicate, grey-blue painted exterior and white detailing reminds you of ocean surf lapping the sand. Inside, while clean, fresh, and modern, we love unique touches like the decorative brick fireplace, and record sleeves on the walls such as Janis Joplin, bringing that sixties California feel into the home. More beach vibes continue the more you look – the host even provides beach towels for guests, plus sand toys for the little ones, so you’ll be ocean-ready from the offset. Venice Beach and its famous boardwalk is a five-minute walk from your beautiful bungalow, while Santa Monica Beach is just over two miles away. You can cruise over there by car, hire a bike, or take a walk from your neighbourhood – a pleasant stroll past health-food cafés, surf boutiques, and beach-side restaurants.

Sittin' Pretty

This is one of those awe-inspiring homes in which you'll find it nigh-on impossible to single out a favourite bit. On sunny days, the manicured outdoor space is sure to be a strong contender, what with its swimming pool and adjoining spa, plus the barbecue, bar and alfresco lounge out on the terrace that was made for long summer evenings.

That being said, there are a whole host of eye-catching amenities inside, too. The tables for pool and foosball are sure to please those with a competitive streak, while the home theatre is a great space in which to catch the latest local blockbuster. Add in a glass wine cellar and an equally sleek fireplace in the main living room you can hunker down next to with a glass of red, and you've got a home that will wow guests of all ages and persuasions.

We should also mention that the design is seriously on point throughout. Stark white walls and smart wooden floors are livened up by eclectic artwork and house plants, while the clean lines and stone-topped counters mean that the kitchen looks as good as it is practicable. Even the office area next to large double-aspect windows is so well-put-together that it almost makes you want to check your emails – almost.

And to top it all off, the location is extraordinary. Melrose Avenue lies at the end of the street and offers plenty of shops and restaurants to explore. The Los Angeles County Museum of Art is just over five minutes away in the car, while the Hollywood Hills take about double that in the opposite direction. 

Movie-Star Good Looks

With huge sliding doors that look out onto a beautifully landscaped garden, Bossa Nova is the kind of home that encourages seamless indoor/outdoor living. Make the most out of the California sun by dining alfresco and lounging by the saltwater pool – you’ll find that sun rays hit the deck at different hours of the day. Despite being a calm oasis that inspires you to take a break, it’s actually in the middle of LA, with easy access to both West Hollywood and Beverly Grove. If you feel like cooking or hiring a private chef, the kitchen is equipped with everything that’s needed (espresso machine to wine cooler). There’s even a garden with fresh herbs and seasonal vegetables. If you feel like exploring LA’s vibrant food scene, you’ll find lots of exciting eateries nearby. The entire home is controlled by a smart home system – and there’s a full surveillance security system too.  The interiors are inspired by California with lots of artworks by local artists, so it's the perfect home if you enjoy modern luxury, beautiful design and architecture.

Bossa Nova

Whether you’re looking to host a celebratory gathering or an intimate retreat, this luxurious estate has been designed to deliver an extraordinary experience. From the grand foyer and the majestic piano to the elegant dining room and exquisite bedrooms, every detail has been considered to inspire optimum relaxation. There is also a recording studio, a hair salon, a games room and a private Jacuzzi in the main bedroom. Outside, spend blissful days relaxing by the pool and sipping drinks on the terrace. Your host is on hand to help organise a range of extra services including private chefs and massage treatments. Plus, it’s just a short drive to Beverly Hills and West Hollywood. 

The Tuscan Estate

A five-minute drive from museums, restaurants, and shops, this central LA pad gets full marks for its location. From visiting the LACMA to shopping at The Grove, you'll be well-placed here to explore. The design is modern and sleek. Outside, a private pool takes centre stage – when you're not venturing around LA, we reckon this is where you'll spend most of your time. A breezy living area is perfect for entertaining, while the bedrooms are split across the main house and the guest house. Central, comfortable, and contemporary – this home offers everything you need.

Sleek Stardust

For some silver screen glamour in the heart of West Hollywood, look no further than this luxurious townhouse. Located just south of Sunset Strip in an exclusive gated complex, it's recently been overhauled by interior designer to the stars Roxy Sowlaty. On the ground floor, you'll find an expansive open-plan space with a giant velvet corner sofa set around a fireplace and piano, perfect for those cosy, cooler nights. However, once the sun's out, you can enjoy direct access to a compact outdoor space, complete with a barbecue. When you're not dining outdoors, we really enjoyed the interplay between the sleek and stylish kitchen with elegant marble worktops that sits alongside the rustic dining table. Upstairs features two large bedrooms with marble en-suites and walk-in wardrobes, so you can sleep in the lap of luxury. Head up one final flight of steps, and you'll arrive at the top floor. This multipurpose room is all things to all people. Need to work out? There's gym equipment. Answer work emails? Grab a seat at the desk. You can even accommodate a couple of additional guests up here. Next, step out onto the rooftop terrace with panoramic views stretching from Downtown LA to Santa Monica. Outside your heavenly Hollywood home, you're only a short walk from the fine dining restaurants and luxury boutiques that line Sunset Boulevard.

Kramer

Realtors use the term ‘walk score’ to determine the quality of life in a house without a car – and we're scoring this beautiful Venice home a whopping 100%! Its location just five minutes from Abbott Kinney, dozens of shopping boutiques, Venice Beach and the Venice Canals makes this home's locale incredibly hard to beat. Inside, the interiors are newly renovated and feature laid-back Melbourne styling influences as well as occasional oriental accents dotted around the home in the form of artwork and antique pieces. We particularly love the super sociable kitchen and dining room area, with its huge open space, guests can enjoy cooking sessions together or more simple aperitifs either at the long dining table or perched around the sleek kitchen island. With plenty of natural light flowing through the home, there's no need to go outside to benefit from the California sunshine, as the serene setting allows you to wake up feeling all the more refreshed and energised with reach and every day spent here.


Walk Score

Nestled behind a 1913 craftsman house, you'll find this sweet studio home. It's a serene space with crisp, white walls and wooden beams. The outside space is shaded by a ficus tree, and is the perfect spot in which to enjoy some peace and quiet away from the buzz of the city. Sit in one of the rocking chairs and enjoy a glass of wine and a game of chess as you watch the hummingbirds flit between the shrubs. 

When it comes to exploring LA, this home is in an excellent location. It's just one mile south of Hollywood, in the Larchmont neighbourhood, which is full of historic homes and independent businesses. You can be in Hollywood in five minutes by car, while a fifteen-minute walk will bring you to the main boulevard of Larchmont. You'll find a farmer's market and a range of shops and eateries. It takes ten minutes to drive to downtown LA, with its bars, stylish restaurants and galleries. 

This lovely little home offers the best of both worlds – you'll sleep soundly in this residential neighbourhood but can be in the thick of things in minutes. The perfect pied-à-terre.
