As stunning as this home’s modernist architecture is, we’re even more impressed with the views over LA’s sun-soaked hills. You’ll be able to enjoy them from most of the rooms (including while soaking in the master en-suite’s impressive tub) but nothing compares to sliding open the panoramic sliding doors from the living room and stepping out onto the balcony. Start the days with a bite to eat at the kitchen’s breakfast bar before taking a short drive to explore the sights of downtown Los Angeles. When you get back, spend some down time relaxing on the extra-large sofa before enjoying a meal together in the chic dining area. At night, follow the cascading ceiling lights downstairs to the three luxurious bedrooms, one of which also has its own office space.

Home truths:
* The road up to the home is quite narrow and winding
* This home has a no shoes inside policy
* This is a peaceful neighbourhood and quiet time is after ten p.m.
