Brentwood

Around The Block

Brentwood:
Brentwood channels an urban sensibility.

Brentwood includes high-style boutiques and trendy restaurants balanced by large secluded houses in the foothills of the Santa Monica mountains. It provides a tranquil refuge for residents, while maintaining a distinct presence in greater Los Angeles culture. One of the neighborhood’s defining features is the Getty, which delivers world-class art from its mountainside perch.

What To Expect:
Healthful living, culture, and stunning SoCal scenery.

Brentwood’s understated polish pervades the neighborhood. While there are many restaurants, specialty food shops, and clothing boutiques, Brentwood enjoys a slightly slower pace. The town is well-maintained, from its manicured parks to its sweeping city streets.
