About this home

A rare opportunity to own a home with history, space, and enduring character in the heart of Westchester. Only two families have owned this property since it was built in 1947 and it has not been on the market since 1978. Expanded by permit in the 1960s from its original 3 bedroom, 2 bath layout, the home now offers 2,010 square feet of living space with 4 bedrooms, 3 bathrooms, a large family room, and an attached garage on a 10,024 square foot corner lot. The property is secured by a gated front yard that houses a private orchard of mature fruit trees and edible plantings. Lovingly cultivated over the decades, this collection includes avocado, fig, loquat, cherimoya, and various citrus, offering both privacy and seasonal harvests. The backyard pool and generous outdoor space provide a blank canvas for the next owner’s vision. This is a classic home offering the opportunity to update, personalize, and build long-term value over time in one of the Westside’s most connected neighborhoods, minutes from Silicon Beach employers in Playa Vista and Culver City, LAX, and both Playa del Rey and Dockweiler beaches, with easy access to the 405, 105, and 90 freeways and multiple arterials including Sepulveda and Lincoln.
