With
its rolling hills, mature trees, winding streets and vintage
architecture Little Holmby is a wonderfully picturesque place
to live. Little Holmby's boundaries are loosely: Wilshire
Boulevard to the south, Sunset Boulevard to the north, Beverly
Glen Boulevard to the east, and UCLA to the west (see map).
It's rather close proximity to the Ocean makes for a milder
climate than other areas in Los Angeles, being cooler in the
summer and warmer in the winter.
Homes in Little Holmby range in price from roughly
the $1,800,000 range up to the $5 million dollar range on
the prestigious streets of Little Holmby such as Conway and
Loring Avenues. The majority of homes in Little Holmby however
are currently selling from $2,500,000 to $4 million.
Little
Holmby has historically been a greatly desired residential
neighborhood because of its close proximity to UCLA which
was important to the many doctors and professors who worked
there. It is also ideally located close to three major commercial
centers in Los Angeles. First and foremost, it is walking
distance from Westwood Village, which is experiencing a huge
Renaissance. Little Holmby is also a few minutes drive from
the Century City and Beverly Hills shopping "Mecca"s as well.
Little Holmby is also adjacent to the Wilshire Country Club
and the prestigious estates of Holmby Hills.
Schools
which service the area include Warner Elementary School, Emerson
Middle School and University High School. UES (University
Elementary School) is also located in the Little Holmby area
(actually on the UCLA campus) although admission to this elementary
school is on a waiting list basis only and takes children
from all over the city. Warner Avenue Elementary School has
a reputation for being one of, if not the finest elementary
school in the Los Angeles Public School system. Warner Avenue
School is a huge draw for buyers to the Little Holmby area.
Little
Holmby's close proximity to UCLA gives it a distinctly educational
back drop. For years Home to many of its doctors and scholars
Little Holmby is also home to people of all professions who
are proud to be among its residents. Little Holmby is one
of the best kept secrets in Los Angeles, but as a superb and
affordable alternative to some of the more expensive estate
neighborhoods Little Holmby borders, it won't be a secret
for long.
