Naya Rivera House Tour
In 2014, the actress famous for her role as Santana Lopez gave fans a peek into her romantic home through InStyle.com. Rivera loved how the neo-colonial residence is perfect for entertaining family and friends through parties, where she would often play as the chief cook and bake goodies for her loved ones.
"I love baking. You can finesse cooking, but with baking, you have to be precise," Rivera said as reported by InStyle June 2014 issue.
Rivera was also in awe of the history behind the home, which was built back in 1935.
"The previous owner lived here for 50 years, which I think is amazing. This house has a history, but it has been updated, so it's light, open, and airy. It's a real dream to live in and ideal for entertaining," she added.
When it comes to the house's interior design, Naya Rivera tapped HGTV alumnus Angelo Surmelis. The mother-of-one wanted a combination of vintage and modern feel that would reflect her personality; that is why the interior designer created a traditional yet romantic and contemporary vibe in the house.
While Rivera's house boasts a cozy dining area, the actress said she loved having breakfast out on the deck as the view reminds her of being in Italy.
