Located on the Westside of Los Angeles just north of the Los Angeles International Airport and east of the beachside community of Playa Del Rey, Westchester was originally a ranching community and was transformed with the birth of Hollywood and the advent of air travel, with the homes originally being built for the veterans coming home from World War II. Today, Westchester truly remains a residentially centered town and provides that hometown feel that is often missing in other cities.
The community is home to two public libraries, a golf course, a YMCA, a large park, and many youth sports leagues. Some children participate in scouting or attend Loyola Marymount University’s summer camps. Residents of the city enjoy Los Angeles’ ideal sunny climate and are a very short drive from the Pacific Ocean. Manhattan Beach, El Segundo, Dockweiler, Marina Del Rey, and Playa Del Rey are the beaches closest to Westchester, where residents can swim, sunbathe, play beach volleyball or jog or bike along the paths.
Just outside of this community-centered town are all the amenities of Los Angeles, one of the United States’ most exciting cities. Los Angeles is home to an exciting nightlife, world-class restaurants and shopping and some of the country’s top cultural and recreational destinations, such as the Getty Museum, the Los Angeles Zoo, Mann’s Chinese Theatre and Venice Beach.
Westchester's real estate options include a bevy of single-family homes in such popular styles that include contemporary, bungalow, traditional and ranch. Many properties feature extras such as spas, swimming pools, fireplaces and views of the city lights. Average listing prices currently hover in the low $660,000s. Prices for homes in Westchester range between $375,000 for a single-story home with 3 bedrooms to upwards of $950,000 for a contemporary-styled luxury home.
