Los Feliz

With the incredibly diverse architecture of all styles and sizes, Los Feliz real estate has become a wonderful enclave for buyers in various price ranges. From gorgeous homes peppering the hillside to private celebrity compounds in gated communities, tranquil estates offering privacy to homes full of character in the middle of all the action, each of the city’s sections has a different flavor. Los Feliz real estate can be found in several distinct areas: 

Los Feliz Oaks is a tight-knight community. Residents can often be found volunteering in order to keep the area looking beautiful. The Los Feliz Oaks real estate mix includes various revival styles, including some dating back to the 1920s. For those looking for more modern properties, there are also many contemporary estates. With both hilly and shaded terrain, some homes offer breathtaking views while others are the epitome of peaceful privacy away from the hustle and bustle. 

A gated community, Laughlin Park offers sought-after properties that are both relaxing and luxurious. Since being established in the early 1900s, Laughlin Park has enjoyed much acclaim, even being named one of the top five neighborhoods in all of LA by Los Angeles Magazine. Though the community is relatively small in size, it is rich in history and design. Laughlin Park real estate draws architectural influence from all across the globe, including Italian, Spanish, Mediterranean, English Gothic, and more, making it an eclectic mix with a variety of options. Some of the most well-known names in Hollywood have called Laughlin Park home, including Charlie Chaplin and Cecil B. DeMille  

With its winding roads and massive tree shade, North of the Boulevard is idyllic and tranquil. North of the Boulevard real estate tends to offer larger homes, allowing residents plenty of space. Its close proximity to famous Griffith Park is an added bonus, making it the perfect place for outdoor enthusiasts. State-of-the-art golfing and hiking are within close reach.

Franklin Hills real estate is diverse, offering many different home styles prominent throughout the 20th century. The community is just as varied, home to long-time residents and new LA transplants alike. With its close proximity to Silver Lake, Franklin Hills offers access to a lively art scene while maintaining all the benefits of a quiet, family-friendly area. The location also comes with stunning views, from the natural coast to charming downtown. 

The Village is a youthful area, with many of its residents tending to be younger and looking for a more urban experience. Because of this, the neighborhood is walkable, allowing its inhabitants access to everything they could need nearby. The Village real estate includes a mixture of Spanish-style single-family homes, classic bungalows, and apartment buildings.

Real estate in Los Feliz is highly desirable. Within the last year, the median sale price has increased by 5.4% to $1.59 million, and the median price per square foot has jumped 5.1% to $730.
 

In reality, though, there is a massive range of home values in Los Feliz.
