Small Town Feeling… Larchmont Village

The Larchmont Village, between Beverly  Boulevard and 3rd street, is a quaint and peaceful neighborhood and shopping district  located in the oldest and traditionally important  neighborhoods of Los Angeles.  This “small town feeling” neighborhood is surrounded by areas such as Hollywood, downtown, Los Angeles, and Beverly Hills, and functions as a retail shopping district toMap of Larchmont Village Hancock Park, Windsor Square, and Paramount Studios.

The abundance of boutiques, charming cafes, mom and pop bookstores, and the Farmers Market on any given Sunday provides Larchmont villagers a delightful place to peacefully dwell.   A few of the many shops and restaurants that inhabit the block are family and communal restaurant Le Pain Quotedien , Mrs. Green’s Natural Market, Crumbs Bakery Shop,  Bricks and Scones Coffee, and Cloth and Paper boutique.  Outside of Larchmont Village, beautifully lies Windsor Park-a garden oasis of broad lawns and ample trees for picnickers who want to enjoy nature.

Not only are the shops and cafes just darling, but many properties also exhibit a chic European vibe. Properties near Larchmont village such as 1920s California bungalows and grand old estates, are the most well preserved older homes in which the median price falls between $650,000 to $750,000.

The Tin Man's House

One interesting and enchanting piece of property is the Mauretenia condos on Rossmore Blvd.  According to the Larchmont Chronicle, the “10 unit Streamline Modern complex” was created in 1934 by Milton J. Black for Wizard of Oz Tin Man Jack Haley and his family.  The penthouse, measured at 4,000 square feet, was owned by the Haleys and later John F Kennedy in 1960. Certainly, a magical place for Dorothy…..from Larchmont!
