The Luxury Home Market of El Segundo

El Segundo is a charming coastal town just South of LAX known for it’s small town charm and community feel. 340_Via_Colusa_front7 copy Although it hasn’t been known as a luxury real estate market for long, that’s certainly changing with the number of high end homes continually increasing.  We asked only a year ago whether El Segundo was ready for homes priced over $2,000,000 and it hasn’t taken long for that answer to clearly be that it is ready to be competive with some high end neighbors including Manhattan Beach and Hermosa Beach.  While $2.0M+ homes are still somewhat rare there have been a record high number of homes approaching that rarified price point.

Since the beginning of the year there have been 36 homes that have come on the market priced over $1,500,000.  That’s a fairly unbelievable number considering that there were only 14 $1.5M+ homes on the market in 2014 and 2015 combined.  To view the current homes for sale visit our El Segundo home sales page or contact us to received a targeted email update for homes in this, or any price range.

El Camino Village – The Community You may Never Have Heard of

Welcome to the homes of El Camino Village

Community in Lawndale and Gardena

While we specialize in El Segundo real estate and the cities of the Beach Cities, we are often asked what “up and coming” neighborhood might be a good place to consider in the South Bay. One neighborhood we think offers a great combination of affordable prices and a great community feel is El Camino Village.  While not actually a city, the neighborhood of El Camino consist of parts of Lawndale and parts of Gardena.  Generally the real estate in El Camino Village is worth quite a bit more than the other adjacent neighborhoods of Gardena and Lawndale.  Click on the El Camino Village Real Estate picture below to see updates, new listings, and information on this great area.

Dockweiler Beach in El Segundo

Dockweiler State Beach

Fun in the sun in El Segundo

By Keith Kyle

When most people think of the classic South Bay beaches they usually think of Manhattan and Hermosa Beach.  Some don’t even realize that El Segundo has a beach but not only does it have a beach, it’s unique and expansive.

Much effort has been put into making Dockweiler a destination beach, with a great RV park, a newer volleyball court area, miles of great beaches, endless areas to surf, the Marvin Braude bike path, ocean view snack bar, youth center and fairly good parking.  If that’s not enough you can even try hangliding just off of small bluff.

Unlike most area beaches the fun doesn’t have to end at night with one of the few locations that allows bonfires on the beach in the numerous fire ring areas.

Dockweiler Beach El Segundo

Dockweiler RV Park

Dockweilers is Los Angeles County’s only RV campground right at the beach.  Pull up and enjoy beachfront camping and the great weather year round means it’s not just good in the summer.  Dockweiler RV park offers a pump-out station, hot showers, and a laundromat. Each campsite has its own picnic table and barbecue.

The 22-mile Marvin Braude Bicycle Trail is only a few pedals away from the camp, connecting the RV Park with nearby attractions such as Redondo Beach Pier, Venice, Santa Monica beaches and Marina del Rey.

Ocean’s Cafe

One of our favorites.  Just off of the bike path and high on the bluff……endless ocean views at a diner style beach restaurant.
