Say what you will about the reality show star Kim Kardashian, but don’t say she has bad taste in home decorating. While her new home isn’t new anymore and the reports about the price she paid vary from $3.5 to $4.8 million, it would be hard to find a home as well decorated as hers. Her 4,000 square foot abode comes complete with five bedrooms and four and a half baths. It sits in Beverly Hills in a cul-de-sac and has features both the outdoor enthusiast and indoor privacy lovers would cherish.

This Mediterranean style home has a fairy tale entrance with swirling topiary and a gated entrance. In the back it offers an outdoor living area that would make you want to sit all night and watch the stars. The area offers an intricately designed fireplace and tile flooring, with draperies to pull around to keep in the heat on a chilly night.

Besides the sitting area, the back yard contains an outdoor barbeque, which would make any woman green with envy. It’s not you’re standard brick-chimney smoker but a fully appointed kitchen with the same tiled flooring as the sitting area. If offers not only a stainless steel dishwasher, but also the top of the line stainless barbecue smoker built in to a tan granite counter.

The interior of the home is also as well decorated and not overly glitzy. The entryway is huge and gives the Mediterranean feel with deeper toned woods, white columns and wrought iron. While the wrought iron stair rail keeps with the Mediterranean theme, I far prefer wood, but then that’s a personal preference, not a decorating faux pas.

The bedrooms are spacious. In fact, one has a lounging area.  These are simple bedrooms and nothing to write home about, unlike the sitting area surrounding the white fireplace or the open plan kitchen that opens to the outdoors and a massage area.

This tastefully decorated home with a waterfall, pool and personal screening room has ample space for the semi-celebrity to entertain, and yet has many areas that are perfect for solitude and reflection, something she may have been doing quite a bit of this year.
