Three miles of Pacific, an original culture

Venice Beach runs three miles along the Pacific Ocean, long a magnet for surfers. The Venice Beach Boardwalk is a two-mile promenade of shops, restaurants, residences, street performers and fortune tellers, the neighborhood's signature stretch of sidewalk.

Muscle Beach Venice, the original outdoor weightlifting gym, and the original Gold's Gym trace the neighborhood's identity as fitness culture's home base.

Abbot Kinney Boulevard is the shopping and dining spine, a walkable corridor that pulls the whole west side of LA on weekends.

Distinct architecture, high demand, low inventory

Along the Venice Canals, distinct architecture built in the early-to-mid 1900s defines the Venice Canal Historic District, a pocket unlike anywhere else in Los Angeles.

The majority of inventory is single-family homes, with condominiums, apartments and townhomes filling in around them. Luxurious oceanfront properties concentrate in the Venice Beach sub-neighborhood.

Demand is high and inventory is low, if Venice is on your list, subscribing to listing alerts is the difference between hearing about a property and being first to it.
