Walkable homes in Spanish Revival and simple styles
Most of the single-family homes here date to the mid-20th century. These houses mainly come in the Spanish Revival, ranch and bungalow styles, giving the neighborhood a somewhat cohesive look. These properties have floor plans of 1,000 to 3,000 square feet and stand on lots between 5,000 and 7,000 square feet. That’s enough for a bit of front and back lawn space, and maybe even an in-ground pool in the backyard.
Sidewalks line most of the streets in West Carson, adding an element of walkability. Some townhomes, condos and mobile homes supplement the traditional single-family residences in West Carson. Most of the options in this neighborhood sell for prices that range from the $700,000s to the $800,000s. A lot of the residents who get into this community tend to stay. “Some of the neighborhoods have very little turnover,” Hart says. “You have families that have lived there for generations.”
