The Sunset Hills District of the Hollywood Hills
I’ve spent this week talking about the different architectural styles found within the Hollywood Hills. If you request a certain type of home in your home search, it could mean that you will have to limit yourself to certain locations, so by no means should architectural style be your only parameter for buying a home. Of course, if you’re set on a certain style, then this is no problem, but most people are concerned with location as well as style and size.
This is why the term “Hollywood Hills” is a kind of misnomer. Saying that you live in the Hollywood Hills could mean any number of different areas in the Hills. The neighborhoods have a different feels and there are quiet family locations, just as there are areas that are more closely associated with the Sunset Strip’s night life. The Sunset Hills district – also referred to as Hollywood Hills West – is a neighborhood for which the Hollywood Hills has gotten its reputation.
Hollywood Hills West generally starts at the Hollywood Freeway to the east and Hillcrest to the west, and includes Laurel Canyon, Nicholas Canyon, Sunset Plaza, Crescent Heights, and other neighborhoods in the vicinity. It is the basic heart and soul the Hollywood Hills – closer to the Sunset Strip so it is often more affiliated with the Sunset Strip lifestyle. There are plenty of homes in quiet neighborhoods in the Sunset Hills, but this is the general area people think about when they say, “Hollywood Hills.”
