Looking for glittering views of LA and a home with impeccable styling? Then you can't beat this quintessential Hollywood Hills stay. It's a mid-century marvel, with vaulted wooden ceilings adding warmth to the minimalist decor. The living room is the hub of the home with floor-to-ceiling glass sliding doors making you feel like you're a part of the surrounding hills. Want to know the perfect place to spend your day with a strong coffee at dawn followed by an even stronger cocktail at dusk? That spectacular wraparound balcony with glorious views of the canyon and Los Angeles down below. When you're not gauping at dizzying views from the balcony, why not head hiking around one of many trails on Hollywood Hills and see if you can spot any famous faces hiding away behind caps and sunglasses. We recommend the one-hour and ten-minute walk to Griffith Observatory – one of the best vantage points in LA (alongside your apartment, of course). Or you could just jump in a car and opt for the sixteen-minute drive!

About Franklin Village
In the 80s and 90s there was something of a trend to affix the word “village” to many neighbourhoods and streets of Los Angeles (Fairfax Village, Larchmont Village, Los Feliz Village, and Virgil Village among them). A stretch of Franklin Avenue also received this treatment and Franklin Village was born. However, unlike some of those neighbourhoods, Franklin Village actually feels somewhat cohesive, compact, walkable and thus vaguely village-like. Its attractions...
