When actor Sam Page and his wife Cassidy Elliott began the hunt for a new home in Los Angeles, it was both an old-hat and a brand-new experience. While they were looking for their fourth house together, this time they also had to accommodate three extra people: their toddler son Logan as well as twin baby daughters Evie and Annabelle. “We just needed more space,” Elliott says succinctly. But, also on their wish list were a home and a neighborhood more kid-friendly than Brentwood, where they lived at the time.
The couple ultimately decided on Pacific Palisades, a coastal area with a beachy feel on the west side of the city. And when they saw the home they would ultimately buy, it was love at first sight: Elliott was enraptured first by the exterior details. “I got this instant feel in the front yard,” she says of the Craftsman-style house. “The outside garden was so pretty and the home itself kind of looks like a big tree house, with wooden shingles and lots of greenery.” Luckily, though the interiors were not move-in ready, the 2002 home did not require a down-to-the-studs renovation.
The kitchen remodel was the hardest part of the four-month-long renovation and involved moving the entire island from one side to the other. Interior designer Allie Boesch chose Benjamin Moore Trout Gray for the island and Cloud Cover for the other cabinets. The floating shelves are walnut and custom cut with brackets from Rejuvenation; the backsplash tile is from Ann Sacks.
To modernize the kitchen and bathrooms, as well as create a decor that reads as “coastal-farmhouse-chic,” the couple enlisted the help of close family friend Allie Boesch, of Allie Boesch Designs. “I wouldn’t have done this project with anybody else,” says Elliott of Boesch. Page also noted that Boesch was able to find stellar replacements for furniture pieces that they had not been able to bring with them from their previous home. “I think her particular gift was figuring out what we wanted and needed, when we didn’t actually know what that was,” he says. The designer was also quite intrepid: It was not unusual for her to call the couple from far out of town, excited about a flea market find she discovered that would work perfectly in the space. Considering Boesch only had around four months to complete the renovation and interior design—the family was working around Page’s filming schedule—it is impressive that she found the time to source as many unique and vintage pieces as she did.
Elliott describes her personal design style as traditional mixed with a touch of natural, earthy elements, while Page considers himself an acolyte of mid-century modern, but the two are adept at finding a happy medium. “We’ve figured out how our styles can mesh together to make something that really works,” says Page. This comingling of tastes is best displayed in the couple’s main bedroom, a stunning space with cathedral ceilings, exposed wood beams, and an original fireplace with jade-colored tiling.
“It feels almost like a resort room,” says Page of the couple’s grand main bedroom. The green tile around the fireplace, which is original to the home, was a contentious item at first—Elliott wasn’t a fan while Page and Boesch loved it—but she eventually came around to appreciating the pop of color. The bed is from One Kings Lane, with linens from Parachute, and Boesch designed the pillows herself with custom vintage fabric. The unique pendant lamp is from Rolling Greens.
But, with three toddlers, the couple spends the majority of their time in one of the children’s playrooms. The 2,800 square-foot house has both a space for them on the first floor of the main home, as well as a separate guest house in the backyard, which Elliott has dubbed “The Outhouse.” California weather means that the kids are often running back and forth between the two spaces, with the windowed doors flung wide open to let in the light and breeze. At night, however, they retire to their nurseries, which are a pitch-perfect mix of innocence and California-cool. Big brother Logan’s room has ample room to play, and a neutral palette that will transition seamlessly to his later years. For the twins, the couple opted for shades of dusty pink and matching Babyletto cribs in a blond wood finish. And while their room has access out to the enviable second floor terrace, for now it remains off-limits. “They love to climb,” says Page.
While during quarantine the family has not had any guests over, they eagerly anticipate welcoming friends once it is safer to do so. “We love having people over for dinner,” Elliott says. “I can’t wait to have the barbecue going again.”
The actor Sam Page and his spouse, Cassidy Elliott, enlisted the help of close family friend Allie Boesch, of Allie Boesch Designs, to remake their new Pacific Palisades home. The dining room separates the family room from the more formal living room. “You truly feel like it’s the axis of the house when you’re sitting at the table,” says Page. The large table is from Ethnicraft, with chairs from McGee & Co. The pendant overhead is from Rejuvenation.

The breakfast nook is the relaxed space where the family of five can gather for informal meals. The table is an antique French butcher block sourced from Dekor and paired with chairs from Palecek. The pendant is a vintage rattan shade sourced by Boesch at the Rose Bowl Flea Market and the painting of lemons is another vintage piece that she found.
The first floor of the home is essentially one large space, but the family room acts as a cozy gathering spot. The couch is from Article, the chair is a vintage Bruno Mathsson, and the rug is from Shoppe Amber Interiors. The built-ins were custom designed by ABD.
“I try to keep them out, but they love it; they’re in there all the time,” says Elliott of the formal living room. To baby-proof it while still being design-forward, the couple replaced their coffee table with a soft-sided, custom-made pouf with vintage kilim fabric. The couch is from HD Buttercup and paired with chairs by Børge Mogensen. The double cabinet to the left of the fireplace is from Lulu and Georgia.

The home contains a total of four fireplaces, but the most special is certainly in the main bathroom. The couple’s three-year-old son Logan, however, may be the family member who uses it the most. “Every night he gets a fireplace-lit bubble bath to himself,” Elliott laughs. “It’s his favorite thing.” Boesch replaced the tile in the bathroom with two-inch marble hexagonals from Ann Sacks and laid a vintage Hamadan from Marc Phillips Rugs on top. The wooden stool is from Dos Gallos.
“We wanted to create a neutral palette that would transition well to a big-boy room,” Elliott says of son Logan’s room. His crib is from Oeuf and covered with vintage throws that were sourced by Boesch. The art was procured from Society6 and the bookcase is from Crate & Kids.
For the couple’s twin daughters, Evie and Annabelle, they wanted a touch of pink but nothing too overwhelming. A textured, blush-pink wallpaper from Schumacher pairs nicely with cribs from Babyletto, a rocking chair from Nursery Works, and pillows made from antique Laotian textiles. The drapes were custom-made with Romo Launay coconut linen fabric.
The home’s powder room features wallpaper from Phillip Jeffries, a faucet from Newport Brass, and a light from Schoolhouse. The mirror is an antique sourced by Boesch.
