Located in The Birds, this ultra-exclusive and glamourous hillside home tops the A-list – it's the Leonardo DiCaprio of Hills mansions. Speaking of Leo, you can count him amongst your neighbours, alongside a host of other Hollywood hotshots. It's hard to find a better base than here – Beverly Hills' famous Rodeo Drive is just a fifteen-minute car journey away, or you can reach Venice Beach in twenty minutes if you're looking to swap the shops for the sand. Or you might decide to stay put – with a home like this, we wouldn't blame you. At the end of a winding driveway, you'll find this luxury estate, offering the chance to wake up to some of the best LA views we've seen (we'd recommend putting dibs on the corner bedroom with its wraparound city vistas). Outside, sun decks and patio areas surround the home, and there's a glistening turquoise pool to jump in when the heat gets too much. When the temperature drops, you'll love gathering around the firepit – but not before you head inside to catch a movie in the cinema room, host a dinner party, or enjoy butler-served drinks at the bar in the exquisite social space. However you choose to spend your evening, make sure you round off the day by catching the sunset – you're overlooking Sunset Strip, after all.
