Studio City Real Estate

A hip, suburban neighborhood within walking distance to green spaces and urban amenities
 
Adjacent to Hollywood, Universal City, and the movie studios of Burbank, Studio City is home to celebrities, industry insiders, and up-and-coming artists. It also offers quick commuting to culturally-rich Downtown Los Angeles and West Hollywood’s famed nightlife. The foothills of the Santa Monica Mountains provide a spectacular backdrop to the community. Fryman Canyon Park and Coldwater Canyon Park offer a network of hiking and equestrian trails, viewpoints, and beautiful scenery.
 
Studio City features a range of stunning living spaces – from large estates in the hills to hip new flats along Ventura Boulevard. Architectural styles include Mediterranean, Spanish Revival, and a collection of well-preserved Mid-Century Modern homes. The 1941 Goodwin House by renowned Modernist architect Rudolph Schindler is a prime example. The main thoroughfare on Ventura Boulevard is lined with chic restaurants, boutique storefronts, trendy bars, and elegant nightspots that make Studio City one of the hippest and most desirable neighborhoods in Los Angeles. Celebrity residents include Miley Cyrus, George Clooney, and Dodgers pitcher Clayton Kershaw.
