This incredible home, set high in the West Hollywood Hills, is a bit of a regular in interior design magazines – and it's not difficult to see why. The LA skyline is a major focus point here, with huge windows framing the cityscape – you can even view it from the bed or the free-standing bathtub. Outside on the deck, you'll find plenty of seating where you can soak up the Californian sun in perfect peace, and there's even a hammock for lazy afternoons. The glamorous ambience doesn't stop there – from the smart kitchen to the decadent steam room, the focus is on minimalist design and luxurious touches. It's the ideal hideaway from LA's hustle and bustle but, with Sunset Boulevard just a mile away, you can easily get to the heart of the action too.

Home truths:
* Gatherings of any kind are not allowed in this home
*The bathtub is in one of the bedrooms, so it's not the most private place for a soak
*There is free parking on the premesis
