Area Information: Brentwood

With the new Getty Center gleaming on a ridge above, treasures and pleasures of the Westside awaiting, minutes away, Brentwood has become the most convenient and sought-after area in Los Angeles' Westside.

From Sullivan Canyon and Santa Monica on the westerly border, to Westwood Hills to the east, zip code 90049 also borders Encino to the north, and west Los Angeles and the Veteran's Complex to the south.

San Vicente Boulevard, its median graced with signature Coral Trees, is the artery of Brentwood to Santa Monica's bluffs. From dawn to darkness, the pedestrian and bicycle traffic co-exists with vehicular traffic, affording the vehicle's inhabitants a vicarious workout, or incentives, at the very least.

The beautifully remodeled Brentwood Country Club, located in the center of Brentwood, has a legendary kitchen and an excellent and friendly staff. This exclusive club features a meticulously groomed golf course, beautiful swimming pool, and well-maintained tennis facilities. For membership information, please contact Stanley Maron at 310.440.3600.

From dramatic ocean and coastline views to bucolic Mandeville Canyon, from the prestigious estate atmosphere of Brentwood Park to convenient pied-a-terre condominiums, whatever the feel you want, it's here.
