320 S Ardmore Ave

A low-rise condominium complex built in 1973, Garden Villas is a three-story, gated community of mostly studio and one-bedroom residences. The architecture reflects mid-20th-century multi-family design with stepped massing around a landscaped central courtyard. Units range from open-plan studios to one-bedroom layouts; many feature balconies or private patios, walk-in closets, and original character details updated with granite or quartz counters and hardwood-style flooring. Interiors include practical touches such as recessed lighting, ceiling fans, breakfast bars, and galley or eat-in kitchens; several units occupy corner or top-floor positions that capture long city views. Shared spaces are plentiful for a building of this scale: a lush fountained courtyard, multipurpose clubroom, gym, sauna and jacuzzi, community laundry, reading lounge, and secure subterranean parking with assigned spaces. Operational features include gated entry, two elevators, an on-site manager, 24-hour security or patrol in many listings, and trash chute and storage rooms. The property sits in central Koreatown/mid-Wilshire, placing it within walking distance of transit, restaurants, and shops and a short drive to downtown, Hollywood and Beverly Hills, offering an urban, amenity-forward lifestyle in a relatively low-rise setting.
