This apartment close to Robertson Boulevard is a model of humble opulence. At first glance, the space appears to be relatively modest. Still, on closer inspection, you'll see that each and every detail has been finished to the highest quality, from the rich brown parquet flooring and the white leather furnishings in the living room to the luxurious bedrooms illuminated by light pouring in through the large windows.

There are also plenty of welcome surprises, too. The balcony is a cute place to start the day with a smoothie, while the building has an enviable number of communal facilities. Outside, there's a heated swimming pool and hot tub surrounded by loungers and a barbecue, but you'll also find a state-of-the-art gym and a shared lounge area that's perfect for catching up on emails.

Away from your well-equipped building, Beverly Hills is a five-minute cab ride down away, so you can fill your days with boutique shopping, restaurant hopping and celebrity spotting.
