Los Angeles | $1.799 Million
A four-bedroom, three-and-a-half-bathroom house, built in 1948 and recently renovated, on a 0.2-acre lot

The house is a few blocks from the Expo/Crenshaw light rail station, which makes it possible to commute to downtown Los Angeles or Santa Monica on public transportation. Downtown Culver City, the University of Southern California and the Natural History Museum of Los Angeles County are a 10-minute drive. Baldwin Hills Crenshaw Plaza shopping mall, which includes a movie theater, is a mile away.
