Open Air Homes

Already planning my next getaway... Where will you go next? @anotherdeserthouse

Angles that slice the sky. Architecture is the medium through which we reflect our presence on the earth - it is how we weave our narrative into the environments we call home. The Rouge Elite House by Open Air Home #openairhomes

Thank you to Neal J. Leitereg and @latimes for the feature: This home in the Hollywood Hills has seen more than a few brushes with fame through the years. Built in 1923 for silent film actress Claire Windsor, the English Country-style house was previously owned by Phyllis Carlyle, the daughter of bandleader Russ Carlyle and onetime personal manager to Melanie Griffith, Willem Dafoe and Geena Davis.... The home was later owned for a four-year spell by Jet drummer and vocalist Chris Cester, who sold the place in 2015 to former UFC fighter Kenny Florian and actress-model Clarke Gilmer for $2.75 million. Florian and Gilmer would sell the place two years later for $3.07 million. Now listed for $3.35 million, the two-story house sits in relative seclusion gates on a third-of-an-acre lot that touches up against the hillside. Brick terraces, waterfall features, an outdoor kitchen and a heated swimming pool make up the hedged and gated grounds. Inside, the 4,028-square-foot floor plan holds a vaulted-ceiling living room, a formal dining room, an updated kitchen, four bedrooms and four bathrooms. A spiral staircase in one of the bedrooms leads up to an office/loft space. Windsor, who died in 1972 at 80, was originally born Clara Cronk but changed her surname to Windsor at the advice of screenwriter Francis Marion. Her starring roles include the films The Acquittal (1923), Grand Larceny (1922) and Just a Woman (1925). Austin Victoria of Douglas Elliman holds the listing.

"This property [Laurel Canyon] is amazing and has everything you could possibly need for a great stay. My family and I loved the location, the spacious rooms, the pool/jacuzzi, the small TV room that we all called 'the snug' and would recommend this place for anyone looking to stay in LA close to Sunset BLVD. Absolutely brilliant hosts too, we can’t thank them enough." Cat E. #openairhomes

We love green accent pieces as it's the color of nature. It adds harmony and a feeling of safety to any space. #openairhomes @kmode_stylist.

The Open Air Candle is a soothing, smoky blend of deep sandalwood and fresh notes of kumquat blossom. The flower of this unique citrus, paired with the powerful serenity of the Santal, embodies the effortlessly sophisticated lifestyle that characterizes Southern California living.

"I've stayed in A LOT of Airbnbs and this was one of the best! We could have spent all day just hanging out in the outdoor space -- which was clean, well manicured and comfortably arranged. The dining room was gorgeous and the kitchen had just about everything you would ever need to make a gourmet meal. The bed was super comfy and the bathroom is newly renovated (which isn't reflected in the photos). The locks were super easy and convenient and this place is just two blocks away from Abbot Kinney, the main street of Venice. Can't wait to stay here again! " - Mindy T #openairhomes

Wadworth's spacious bedroom is full of charm and majestic. The wide windows flood light into the room making it look and feel exactly like what everybody dreams about. #openairhomes

Decor on the dining table of Pink Suede breathes new life and is a great way to bring a natural element into the dining room. Do you prefer real plants or artificial plants in your home? #openairhomes

"What a place! The [San Juan] space is incredible. We had our two young kids and they had a bedroom each. The enclosed secure garden was great too. The roof terrace was great to relax and hang with some friends also. The location couldn’t be any better. It’s a 2 minute walk from Abbott Kinney and great restaurants. Venice Beach is a 10 minute walk. We love LA and this home was the perfect way to slow down and enjoy the sun and explore all of what Venice has to offer. Brad and Kyle were exceptionally responsive and we were greeted by one of the team on arrival. First class home and team. We will use them again. " - Euan S #openairhomes
