When it comes to this apartment, you need to start with the location. It’s directly above Big Rock Beach, a spectacular stretch of coastline found between Santa Monica and Malibu, and you can go from bed to swimming in the Pacific Ocean in no more than a minute. As you would hope, there's a private balcony and a communal terrace that both face the sea giving fabulous sunset views at the end of the day. Back inside, the home feels effortlessly Californian with its big glass doors inviting the sea air inside and pared-back interior design choices that instantly feel soothing. It’s a short drive to both Tuna Canyon Park and Topanga State Park, so if you want to try something a little bit more active, there are miles and miles of trails to explore. However, if you're envisioning something more sedate, there's a wide choice of restaurants that can be reached within ten minutes behind the wheel.
