1033 Carol Dr

The Carolwood Condominiums is an award-winning, low-rise architectural complex completed in 1975 and designed by Ron Goldman, FAIA. Comprised primarily of two-story townhouse-style residences and a limited number of penthouse units, the property emphasizes modernist lines, generous ceiling heights and expansive glazing that creates bright, multi-level interiors. Typical two-bedroom floor plans feature step-down living rooms with fireplaces, floor-to-ceiling windows, private patios or balconies, lofted primary suites, and architectural details such as exposed block/concrete walls, beamed ceilings, crown molding and recessed lighting. Kitchens and baths are often updated with stone finishes and high-end fixtures while interiors may include built-in storage, separate dining rooms, sunken living areas, and multiple staircases between levels. On-site building services and controls include gated entry, elevator access to select units, secure garage parking with dedicated tandem or side-by-side spaces and additional overhead storage. The grounds are gardened and resort-oriented, with a pool, spa, sundeck and a fully equipped gym; some listings reference sauna facilities. Pet policies and exact HOA rules vary by unit but the community emphasizes privacy and controlled access. Located in Upper West Hollywood on the border of Beverly Hills, the complex sits a short walk from the Sunset Strip and local dining, nightlife and shopping, offering an urban, design-forward lifestyle within a relatively low-rise, secure setting.
