Playa Del Rey

Playa Del Rey is a hidden gem and an oceanfront neighborhood with a stress-free beachside living space, scenic beauty, with urban comforts of Los Angeles. Located between Marina del Rey and the LAX, this quiet enclave provides an unusual combination of beachfront homes and good real estate potentiality. To buyers, sellers, and investors, it is a unique chance to experience all the beauties of a coastal community without the usual congestion or overdevelopment.

At Rusnell Real Estate Group, we understand the nuances of the Playa Del Rey market. We assist buyers to unlock the hidden value of this neighborhood to make the most of their real estate experience by guiding them through every step of the real estate journey with insight, strategy, and personal attention. Are you thinking about buying a condominium by the beach, selling a property in the hills, or merely looking to invest in real estate generating income? We tailor our approach to suit your needs.

Playa Del Rey appeals to those who seek privacy, scenic surroundings, and a slower pace, without being disconnected from the rest of the city.  It is a favorable location with quiet streets, panoramic views of the ocean, and natural reserves for both full-time residents and second-home buyers. Simultaneously, the fact that it is next to large tech employers in Silicon Beach, the airport, and the main freeways adds to its worth and convenience.

Home buyers can expect all types of properties, including modern beachfront condos to typical mid-century houses nestled into the mountains. The Pacific, Ballona Wetlands and the marina views provide an unusual fusion of nature and architecture. We work closely with buyers to explore listings that align with their lifestyle while ensuring each purchase is a sound long-term investment.

Playa Del Rey provides excellent positioning to the sellers. The community’s limited inventory and high desirability make well-marketed homes especially competitive. Our team creates custom strategies for pricing, promotion, and presentation that help sellers stand out in this niche market.

From professional photography to virtual staging, we make sure your property leaves a lasting impression.

Investors are increasingly exploring Playa Del Rey for its potential in both long-term leasing and short-term vacation rentals. The high-income resident base, limited turnover, and ongoing interest from tech and entertainment professionals create reliable rental demand. We offer guidance on multi-unit investments, property analysis, and future appreciation trends to help you make informed decisions.

The neighborhood’s laid-back energy, combined with its central location, makes Playa Del Rey a rare gem on the LA coast. Whether enjoying a beach walk at sunset or commuting quickly into Culver City or Santa Monica, residents get the best of both serenity and connection. It’s this balance that continues to attract those looking for more than just a home—they’re looking for lifestyle and value.

Learn more about Playa del Rey

Playa del Rey used to be known as “the town that was stuck in the ’70s”.  It certain is a refreshing break from the usual hustle and bustle of LA.  If you take the drive from Culver Blvd into town, you enjoy the view of the wetlands all around you, and you immediately feel the peace that it portrays.  Playa del Rey is known for its old surf spot Toes Beach.  The area of newer and older houses, condos, townhouses, and multi-family properties south of Cuver Blvd along the beach is known as The Jungle.  Aside from a few banana tress on neighbors’ properties, I’m not sure why.

Playa is great for bicyclists, bladers and runners.  The beach strand runs north across the bridge into the Marina out to Malibu, and heads south all the way to Palos Verdes.  One thing for certain, if you apprecate the old-school feel, and the chill vibe of very little traffic aside from commuters, you may just fall in love with Playa Del Rey!
Fun facts: it’s the first beach town just north of LAX, the Los Angeles International Airport.  Residents population is just over 12,000. 

From San Diego Freeway (405), you can get to Playa del Rey with the directions below:
