A jaw-dropping contemporary home in the upscale enclave of Hidden Hills in California has gone on sale for £11 million ($14.5 million) – and could be easily mistaken for a five-star wellness resort.

The mindful mansion was created with function and tranquility in mind and, while luxury oozes from every surface, it's subtle and effortless.

The Reserve sits on an acre of land and boasts 13,460ft of living space. The focus on indoor/outdoor living and the use of open spaces and natural materials means there's a zen-like quality that evokes a spa-worthy serenity.

The tree-lined estate boasts a grand entrance to the light-filled home, which brings a touch of modern-rustic Napa Valley farmhouse style to the celebrity-inhabited area.

The landscaped garden and wraparound terrace is an entertainer's dream. Open spaces and outdoor living rooms, cabana, an outdoor kitchen, and dining areas are all part of high-end features that add to the lifestyle experience.

The zero-edge pool is surrounded by manicured landscaping, zen garden, mature trees, and the Ahmanson Ranch enveloping the area for total privacy.

There's also hammocks strewn in bucolic hotspots, ready to read, snooze or take in the beauty of the surroundings.

The master bedroom is a thing of beauty, boasting its own private terrace and wide doors opening out on to the space.

Bathrooms, all eight of them, are, of course, also high-end with touch-lighting and marble walls.

The rest of the house is just as luxe. The reception is a masterclass in an organic aesthetic, with a pared-back colour scheme and natural accessories, including a statement driftwood console and matching side tables.

The luxurious yet informal kitchen also has warm textures with wooden cabinets mixed with high-end Gaggenau appliances. Marble tops add luxury and matte black taps and matching stools throw in a modern dash of industrial.

Automatic doors open out onto the stunning pool and terrace, with similar flooring ensuring a natural flow between outside and in.

The TV is set into wood panelling surrounded by carefully-placed plants, with high white ceilings creating a loft feel.

All eight bedrooms have been fitted with a Laundry Jet (no washing baskets required) meaning laundry automatically gets taken to one of three laundry rooms, further adding to the relaxing, no-stress vibes.

Other super-luxurious features in the home include a walk-in fridge, a hydraulic revolving car carousel, and an elevator.

And when you want to work in peace or enjoy a night on the sofa, there's a tranquil study space, and a rather cool cinema room to keep you entertained. When can we move in?
