Aside from the fact that it sits in the heart of the west side of Los Angeles, CA, there’s little to let on that this elegant home isn’t nestled in the picturesque French countryside. The owner of the home is the equally photogenic supermodel Carolyn Murphy, who is selling the exquisite 8,290 square foot residence for just under $3 million.
Though it was built in 1927, the home’s décor and tasteful finishes lend an air of an older, more dignified space. In fact, Murphy’s extensive decorating work with interior designer Schuyler Samperton was featured in the March 2012 issue of Vogue. From the front yard, simply landscaped with common Provençal plants, one enters into the light, white-washed living areas of the first floor. Here, wide-plank hardwood floors provide the platform for the relaxed living room, and den. A marble farmhouse sink and antique terracotta floor tiles lend a dignified solidity to the eat-in kitchen.
The home’s master suite is a tranquil retreat: walls of windows admit the California sun into the large bedroom and adjacent sitting area. The large marble-floored master bathroom opens onto a shady private terrace. The home also contains an additional two bedrooms and three bathrooms.
The park-like backyard is absolutely gorgeous, with a tree-shaded court hemmed in by a rectangular swimming pool and a lavender-encircled spa. Sunlight, greenery and space make this lovely property into a little piece of country idyll in the big city.
