This Encino turnkey (and then some) property in the hills above Los Angeles is a design editor’s mood board. The reimagined façade projects a private-cabin feel, yet inside, the layout opens up with matt-white walls, raw white-oak floors and high ceilings — the Mooie Home light is a focal point.

An arched motif runs throughout the four-bed, four-bath property, linking the double-height foyer to the living and dining areas and through to the bespoke kitchen. Designed with a cosy anteroom, pantry and breakfast area, the kitchen has built-in Bosch appliances and honed Calcutta marble countertops. Slim-frame glass doors and windows look onto a landscaped garden and resurfaced heated swimming pool

Personality shines through in the House of Hackney wallpapers, which brighten up powder rooms and alcoves. The primary bedroom comes with a Herman Miller light. The bathrooms carry on the archway theme in its mirrors, and showcase the Newport Brass hardware used throughout the home.

The location has a wild side, with Westridge-Canyonback and Topanga State Parks just downhill. Yet Belair, Sherman Oaks and the Getty are a quick drive out. Sotheby’s International Realty has listed the home for $3.45 million.
