Overlooking the Pacific Ocean in a private Malibu enclave, this sophisticated yet inviting home combines streamlined modernist forms with laidback styling. Inside, it’s all glass, wood and pristine white paint. There’s a contemporary living area illuminated by floor-to-ceiling windows and a sleek kitchen with everything you need for cooking up a storm. Upstairs, the sprawling main bedroom opens onto a private balcony where you can watch the sun rise over the water with an espresso in hand. When the temperature begins to rise, make a beeline for the zen-like garden and plunge into the pool. If you fancy a change of scenery, take the short walk to Escondido Beach for a spot of sunbathing on the sprawling stretch of sand. Or why not swap the coast for the city and head into Santa Monica? It’s a twenty-three-minute drive away. Watch dusk fall from the famous pier before tucking into tasty seafood in a Downtown restaurant. Home truths: *Parking is available on the premises *Though there isn't a dedicated desk here, the dining table doubles up as a laptop-friendly workspace *This home is spread over two floors, with no internal lift *The swimming pool isn't fenced, so children will need to be supervised at all times *If you’ll be travelling by plane, Los Angeles International Airport is a thirty-three-minute drive from the home
