Take glamorous LA interior design, add endless sea views, and the result is this spectacular waterfront home on the famous Pacific Coast Highway. While communal spaces are open and made for entertaining, there are plenty of nooks and crannies to be discovered. Begin in the living area, with its vast wall of sliding glass doors that frame the glittering ocean. Head down to the atrium for laidback breakfasts around the bespoke dining table or nip up to the roof deck to watch retreating tides at daybreak. After an afternoon chilling out in the tucked-away hot tub, hop down the steps that lead directly onto the beachfront and crash into the rolling waves. When it’s time to explore, take the ten-minute drive to Santa Monica Pier for its amusement park and seafood restaurants or visit the Getty Villa – it’s less than a five-minute car ride away. Home truths: *This home has a garage with space for three cars *We recommend having a car here for ease of getting around *There is direct access to the water, so keep an eye on small children at all times *Please be mindful of your neighbours and keep noise to a minimum, especially when using the rooftop terrace in the evenings *The closest supermarket is Vons, a five-minute drive away
