Located over fifteen hundred feet above sea level, this home in the Santa Monica mountains is positively overflowing with bright design and characterful furnishings. From the sixty-five inch QLED TV that doubles up as a piece of artwork when it's not turned on to the Japanese-inspired canvas behind one of the beds, the amount of head-turning flourishes make the address feel like a gallery space — albeit one that never feels anything less than homely. Our favourite spot has to be the dining table positioned right by a row of windows that invite the Californian sunshine inside and shares a view of the city in the distance. When you want to head outside, there are distractions in every direction. Hikers will want to embark on the nearby Viewridge Trail, while Topanga Beach is only twenty minutes' drive due south. Alternatively, designer stores and restaurants await in Woodland Hills, ten minutes away by car.
