Mount Washington Real Estate & Homes for Sale in California
This rustic hillside community is located a mere 20 minutes north of Broadway and the center of the downtown Los Angeles business district. Surrounded by a city teeming with nearly 10 million residents, Mount Washington is a rural hideaway and an alternative lifestyle to the hustle and bustle of urban life. Los Angeles is actually a slanting basin encircled by the Santa Monica Mountains, the high San Gabriel’s and the Puente Hills. Within the Los Angles basin is Mount Washington, a stately mountain standing 940 feet in height. Once a retreat for the rich and famous, this unique community is known for its diverse population and select real estate market, which attracts both professionals and artists. In 1909, the Los Angeles and Mount Washington Incline Railway put Mount Washington on the map and turned it into an exclusive and highly desirable hilltop residential site. The former Mount Washington Hotel was a favorite destination for silent film stars and other celebrities, who often enjoyed the panoramic view from the summit and then purchased a lot for its beauty and scenic advantages. Today families are attracted to Mount Washington for its strong sense of community, unique homes and the Mount Washington Elementary School, whose students achieve some of the highest scores on the Academic Performance Index every year. The Southwest Museum is a familiar hillside landmark, while Elyria Park and Rainbow Canyon are local parks owned by the Santa Monica Conservancy. Real estate options in Mount Washington consist of single-family detached homes, estate properties and land lots.
