This show-stopping villa is smart in more ways than one. Not only is the design sleek and sophisticated, but the entire home is equipped with a smart entertainment system that makes staying here a dream. We love how every inch is brimming with creature comforts, from the luxe rainfall showers and sumptuous soaker tub down to the quirky piano in the entrance hall and electric fireplaces in nearly every room. The gourmet kitchen has everything you need to rustle up a meal or two, but the outdoor space is the real star of the show. Complete with a pool, hot tub and a cabana, chances are you'll spend most of your time entertaining out here, making the most of the gorgeous California weather. Fire up the barbecue for an alfresco feast, then spend evenings snuggling up by the outdoor fire with your favourite movie on the flatscreen. Upstairs on the roof terrace, you can play human chess, unwind in the jacuzzi under the stars or simply enjoy a drink and bask in the panoramic views of Los Angeles – you can even spot the famous Hollywood sign in the distance. The location is excellent, too. Less than a block away is Melrose Avenue, where you'll find boutiques, coffee shops and plenty of bars and restaurants when you don't feel like cooking. And if you'd like to get a closer look at the Hollywood sign, Griffth Park Observatory is only a twenty-minute drive away.
