Home Inventory on the rise in Hollyglen
By Keith Kyle
It’s been a while since we’ve seen more than just one or two single family homes for sale in the neighborhood of Hollyglen which may start to ease some of the pent up demand in this somewhat secret neighborhood. Although it has a Hawthorne mailing address, this great neighborhood is an unincorporated area and enjoys it’s own award winning school system known as the Wiseburn District. Hollyglen sits just north of Rosecrans and just west of the 405 freeway and has remained somewhat of an unknown jewel in South Bay real estate. I has the feel of Torrance neighborhoods of West Torrance and Southwood, with tree lined streets, schools within walking distance, and offer a very safe and social neighborhood feel. As of April 2, 2014 there are 7 single family homes for sale in Hollyglen, with 3 new construction in the 360 South Bay community, 2 additional homes in Del Aire (but west of the 405 so in somewhat similar neighborhood) priced from $544,000 (Del Aire) to $890,000 for a 4 bedroom new construction in 360. Prices for a 3/2 single family built in the 1950s, which most are, generally range lately between $640,000 and $690,000

When we were at the peak of the market the townhomes in the Fusion complex drew a great deal of interest for many couples and singles priced out of the nearby Beach Cities. Fusion is technically on 149th Street in Hawthorne, but is just off Aviation Blvd and directly across the street from Manhattan Beach. As the market cooled so did the prices in Fusion and we saw smaller 2 bedroom townhomes selling below $400,000 which was hard to believe. The market has picked back up and prices are somewhat stable but the inventory of homes in Fusion continues to defy the norm and goes from no homes and high demand to multiple homes with less buyer interest all in short periods of time.
