Million-dollar homes close to horse trails
Most homes are detached single-family properties that have large lots and midcentury modern designs. They usually sell between $1 million and $5.5 million, and some are in HOA-managed areas that charge monthly fees. There are also townhouses and condos, and the prices can range from the lower $400,000s to around $1.6 million. “In certain communities, many people keep horses on their property,” says Realtor Terri Harkins with Vista Sotheby’s International Realty, who has been selling here for over 30 years. “There are horse trails that intertwine between properties and throughout the city.”
Horses are an iconic image featured heavily throughout Rolling Hills Estates.
Homes are built up the hills, and many enjoy spectacular views of Rolling Hills Estates and beyond.

What outdoor spaces and parks are in Rolling Hills Estates
The city is unique because of its layout. “Rolling Hills Estates is more spacious and rural than the rest of the peninsula,” Harkin says. “Instead of looking more suburban, it has these spacious wooded lots and big open canyons that make it much quieter.” You can drive about 5 miles to Torrance Beach for a day out, but you can also stay closer to home and visit:
Linden H. Chandler Preserve — a nearly 30-acre expanse of open space, with dirt trails used by hikers and horseback riders
Ernie Howlett Park— home to the Rolling Hills Estates Tennis Club and multiple athletic courts
South Coast Botanic Garden — a former landfill that now features more than 2,000 plant species in curated gardens
Rolling Hills Country Club — a private 18-hole course where members can also use the in-ground pool, spa and tennis courts
Batting Cage Trail leads to Howlett Trail, accessed from Ernie Howlett Park.
Take a leisurely stroll through the South Coast Botanic Garden.

Peninsula High School commands beautiful views from the top of the hill.
Families have public and private school options
Rolling Hills Estates is served by the Palos Verdes Peninsula Unified School District, which is known for its highly rated schools. The city has public elementary, middle and high schools, as well as private options like Rolling Hills Country Day School.
Bristol Farms is the choice for Rolling Hills Estates residents looking for quality groceries.
Where to dine and shop, along Silver Spur Road and nearby
When you want to dine out, there are plenty of options along Silver Spur Road. Some of the most popular in Rolling Hills Estates restaurants are:
The Original Red Onion, where you can order Sonoran-style Mexican food
The Crepery Cafe, a busy spot that serves coffee, crepes and egg plates
Pho Hana Restaurant & Tofu, known for its Korean and Vietnamese dishes
The Promenade PV is a three-level mall with even more restaurants, shops and experiences. Next door, the Peninsula Shopping Center has plenty of stores to visit, from the Pavilions grocery store to Target. Some people take the short trip up to the Del Amo Shopping Center in Torrance, which has over 250 stores and restaurants to try.
Driving around Rolling Hills Estates and to work
The city is highly residential, so most people drive to get around, especially when commuting to Torrance or Hawthorne for work. If you want to go about 30 miles to downtown Los Angeles, you might deal with traffic on Interstate 110 during the hour-long drive. Los Angeles International Airport is about 15 miles away. There are buses in the area, but it's much faster to drive.
Ways people get together throughout the year
Rolling Hills Estates hosts community events throughout the year, from spring gatherings to holiday traditions. There’s usually a big turnout for:
The Palos Verdes Street Fair & Music Festival, a multiday event in June that usually includes a carnival, live music, a petting zoo and vendors
The City Celebration each September, featuring horse competitions, pony rides and kids’ games
The Hills Are Alive 10K/5K, a community run/walk along the city’s horse trails every May
