Set just off the top of the famous Mulholland Drive, this hilltop home has stacks of space and some incredible views of the Hollywood Hills. A contemporary build, with striking features and huge picture windows, it's comfortable and stylish in equal measure. White walls and dark wood floors mix with modern grey tones and high-end furnishings to create a luxurious stay in one of the world's best-known locations – less than a ten-minute drive from the Hollywood Bowl and from the Hollywood sign itself. Bedrooms are spacious and relaxing, and the vast master suite includes a bedroom with stunning views from its balcony, a large en-suite and a walk-in wardrobe. There's a kitchen fit for a chef and out back there's a private patio with a dining table for eating alfresco on warm evenings. Hollywood Boulevard is easily accessible by car, and keen hikers can walk up Mulholland to the lookout points and Runyan Park – an unforgettable experience.
