Storied neighborhood preserving its historic homes
Hancock Park is a historic residential enclave where palm tree-lined streets and traditional estates envelope the grounds of the Wilshire Country Club. “It’s one of the more prestigious areas around Downtown LA,” says Pete Buonocore, a Broker with the Core Group LA at Keller Williams and a longtime resident of Hancock Park. “Many of the houses are in a Historic Preservation Overlay Zone where homeowners are required to preserve the unique character of their homes, so when you’re driving down the street, it’s as if you’re in the 1920s.” Centrally located less than 2 miles south of Hollywood, the neighborhood preserves its individuality with proximity to major thoroughfares such as the Hollywood and Santa Monica Freeways.
Wilshire Country Club is in the center of Hancock Park and a long established landmark.
