A sensational property located directly on Manhattan Beach, this head-turning home is a designer's dream. The cutting-edge glass exterior contrasts nicely with the wood and stone elements inside, which serve to connect you to the natural beauty on show through the double-height floor-to-ceiling windows. The secluded bedrooms allow for a certain amount of privacy. However, it's worth noting that the third bedroom is accessed through a hatch in the ceiling of the second – which certainly makes the prospect of going to bed a lot more exciting for the kids. The communal areas are inviting and cosy and do everything possible to orientate you towards those incredible vistas. So grab a glass of wine and watch the waves roll in as the setting sun reflects off your sleek beach house.


Home truths:
*You'll walk through the second bedroom and up a steep ladder to enter the third bedroom
*This third bedroom has low ceilings so is best suited to children and shorter adults
*There is onsite parking, however, the space isn't huge and could accommodate something like a Prius, or vehicle of a similar size
*Your host provides everything you need for a day at the beach, including surfboards, stand-up paddle boards, boogie boards, skim boards, beach chairs, towels, shovels and sand toys
