With its adorable pointed roof and glazed walls, this mid-century marvel is sure to charm any design fans looking for a cosy family home. Designed by architectural master Bill Bradshaw in 1967, this fabulously preserved property lies in Scriven, North Yorkshire. While the exterior of the home is fairly modest, its the interior that's a real knockout in the property. 

The five-bedroom home retains many of its original features, including pine cladding, exposed beams and floor-to-ceiling windows. In fact, the house offers 42 glazed screens across its living spaces, flooding the property with natural light and offering uninterrupted views over the woodlands of neighbouring Jacob Smith Park.

Bradshaw took inspiration from popular property designs seen in California in the 1960s. He decided to create a building that featured extensive glass, redwood ceilings and moveable partitions, to allow for a flexible layout. Externally, he incorporated local stone to help the innovative house slot into its surroundings.

Blocks of primary colours arranged in a Bauhaus style give this cute kitchen a unique and interesting focal point. The ceiling is wooden clad, in keeping with the rest of the house and the splashback tiling uses a rectangular grid layout that is typical of mid-century interiors.

The rooms are modestly-sized but so typical of the era, including this extremely cool dining room. We love the Eero Saarinen Tulip table and form-wire chairs that perfectly complement the pine-clad ceiling and op art rug. Listed with The Modern House, this exceptional mid-century gem could be yours for £825,000 ($1.08m).

Those stunning, sliding floor-to-ceiling windows extend to the sleeping areas, giving every bedroom its own amazing views of the valley below. The 4481-square-foot property also has four bedrooms and two lower levels with a wine room, a laundry and a cinema room. 

The house was built backing onto a steep hill, which provides a private terrace sandwiched between the rear of the house and the cliffside. Cool modern furniture and a turfed space make this a quiet and peaceful place to relax in the LA sunshine. The house is listed for £1.89 million ($2.49m) with Sotheby's International Realty.
