Sizzle Sizzle: California

It’s always sunny in California and this is the perfect home for catching those rays. Make a beeline to the back garden, where you’ll find a pool surrounded by swaying palm trees and an attached jacuzzi. Watch the children splash about in the water from the comfort of a swing seat and take in the canyon views; they will love this tropical space with turf for outdoor games and a terrace for barbecues. The interior is sleek and glamorous, making use of metallic tones and pops of vibrant colour. The open-plan kitchen, dining room and living space are spread across the ground floor – perfect for bringing the family together. The kitchen has been kitted out with brand-new appliances and has plenty of silverware to serve up a meal for twelve. Parents will be glad to know that there’s a wet bar downstairs as well as a laundry room. Why not reward yourself with a cocktail while you put the washing on?
