Los Angeles, CA 90016 5132 1/2 Village

Your own urban oasis awaits in the historic and iconic Village Green! Nestled within 60+ acres of lush landscaping, winding trails, and expansive open green space, this charming 1BD/1BA mid-century condo is ideal for the first-time homebuyer, investor, retiree, or anyone needing the perfect pied-a-terre in the city. Natural light just pours into this spacious top-floor unit, which feels more like a townhouse with its own private ground-floor entry foyer and striking U-shaped interior staircase. The main upper level features tranquil treetop and courtyard views, original hardwood floors, fireplace, built-in shelving, west-facing balcony (perfect for taking in the sunsets), formal dining room (or home office/den), big bedroom, full bath with vintage tile, closets galore, upgraded electrical panel, LG mini-split A/C, ground-floor patio, and private 1-car detached garage. The home has miraculously retained much of its original 1940s character for all these many years, but is now ready and waiting for a fresh cosmetic makeover to really make it a showstopper. The Village Green is designated as a Los Angeles Historic-Cultural Monument, a National Historic Landmark, and was named one of the 100 most important architectural achievements in U.S. history. There's also 24-hour security, an on-site maintenance crew, community clubhouse, jazz concerts, and movie nights. Its unbeatable location puts you just minutes from the Expo line, LAX, USC, LMU, Culver City, and a host of shops, restaurants, theatres, and clubs. Best of all, this property is subject to The Mills Act, which offers significant property tax reductions for its owners. Opportunity knocks to own your own piece of LA history at an amazing entry-level price.
