The Californian is a low-rise, garden-style condominium complex in Culver City's Fox Hills neighborhood built in 1968. Spanning three stories and roughly 48 units, the property is arranged around landscaped courtyards and walkways that lead to a central pool and clubhouse. Architecture leans traditional–Spanish-influence with stucco walls, tiled rooflines and planted common areas. Units are primarily one-bedroom floor plans (listings also show two-bedroom variants) with single-level layouts, vaulted or high ceilings in some homes, private patios or balconies, and features such as breakfast nooks, wet bars, recessed lighting, crown molding and built-in desk areas. Many homes open onto pool-facing patios or quiet garden views; some ground-floor units have direct pool/courtyard access while upper units offer private verandas. Common amenities include a heated swimming pool, gated and controlled access, on-site clubhouse/rec room, meeting space, elevator access, and laundry rooms on each level. The property provides assigned subterranean garage parking—often two side-by-side spaces per unit—and security cameras. The HOA covers select utilities and grounds maintenance, pool upkeep and trash; pet policies are restricted (typically one small pet; size subject to HOA rules). While many units arrive in move-in condition, the complex also contains homes marketed for renovation, offering potential to update kitchens, baths and flooring. Located steps from Fox Hills Park and the Westfield Culver City shopping center, the complex sits within the Culver City Unified School District and provides convenient access to Playa Vista, Silicon Beach employment nodes, LAX and nearby freeways. The setting emphasizes courtyard living and neighborhood accessibility: daily errands, shopping and parks are walkable, while larger job and entertainment hubs are a short drive away.
