L.A. neighborhood attracts home buyers seeking good proximity
Spanning just over a mile, Beverly Grove draws appeal from Los Angeles city dwellers with its proximity to museums, diverse eateries in the dining district, boutique hotels, entertainment venues and plenty of low to high-end retail shopping. Also known as the Fairfax District bordering east of luxurious Beverly Hills and trendy West Hollywood, the Beverly Grove neighborhood was established during the 1920s. Beverly Grove provides an ideal location to lay down roots and visit landmarks filled with culture, history and sophistication. Located in the Flats, the neighborhood is very walkable. According to Catherine Ammann, a Realtor with The Agency who has been selling homes for 11 years, the area is highly desirable for families and young professionals. She adds that home buyers are attracted to the area because of the neighborhood’s central location. “Beverly Grove offers such a great lifestyle. It has a trendy, modern vibe. It reminds me of New York’s Soho and Brooklyn. There is also very charming architecture in the area.”

Many homes were built in the '20s and '30s
Homeowners have enjoyed the neighborhood's tranquility for decades. Remodeled homes must exceed safety standards to match the lot sizes of surrounding similar-looking homes. Janet Haiavy of Keller Williams Beverly Hill says the residential streets have Spanish-style cottages, modest apartment complexes, modern farmhouses and single-story ranch homes with an old Hollywood charm. Many of the homes were built in the 1920s and 1930s and those homes are typically one level. Homes with more than one level were built after the ‘20s and ‘30s. According to Ammann, there are no HOAs in the neighborhood. Additionally, nearly 75% of residents are renters. With 19 colleges and universities near the neighborhood, rentals are in demand even though occupants may have to pay as much as $35,000 a month. Prices for the housing stock are $625,000 to $5.2 million. The CAP Index crime score in the area is a 4 out of 10, which is on par with the national average.

Music, arts and culture events attracts community
The Grove, The Original Farmer’s Market and The Beverly Center offer various community events. The Grove Tree Lighting is a yearly holiday favorite featuring a Christmas tree measuring over 100 feet. Jazz fans spend Friday evenings from April to November at The Los Angeles County Museum of Arts to enjoy live music, art exhibitions, food and cocktails. The museums can be found on Museum Row, which is part of the Miricle Mile portion of the neighborhood. Portions of the Miricle Mile are also designated Historic Preservation Overlay Zones, which means the homes in those zones cannot be altered in a way that takes away the structure’s historical significance. Haiavy says one of the biggest draws of living in Beverly Grove is that most of these attractions are within walking distance.

Commuting can be done multiple ways
It's no secret that driving in the Los Angeles area can be full of traffic jams during morning or evening rush hour commute. It is common to see bicyclists opt out of driving and pedaling around as a part of their athletic lifestyle. Other modes of transportation are also utilized. “Rental scooters are popular here,” adds Ammann. There are also multiple bus and subway stops in the area, making getting around easier. Those who want to brave L.A. traffic can access the nearby interstates of I-10 and I-405.
