In the mid 1920’s, Developer Clifford Reid discovered an area just north of Palos Verdes that reminded him of the French Riviera. Enamored by the motion picture industry, Reid felt it was a natural location for the Hollywood crowd, and came up with the name, “Hollywood Riviera”. Technically located in the city of Torrance, a majority of the homes actually have a Redondo Beach mailing address. Approximately 2 square miles of land, with about one mile of coastline, this coastal community is home to wonderful boutiques and restaurants in the “Riviera Village”.

From “Old Spanish” to mid century modern, the Riviera has it all. A large number of the homes in the Hollywood Riviera have views of the ocean, city lights or both. Prices start at just under a million dollars, and can go over $10 Million for homes along the bluff of RAT (Right.After.Torrance) beach.

As of 2015, the average listing price for a single family home in the Hollywood Riviera is $1,302,000. The average price per square foot is $631.
