West Hillhurst Real Estate
West Hillhurst lacked any considerable development until 1945, when substantial construction projects to house returning soldiers from World War II commenced. Today, new infill home developments have become the new face of the community, replacing many of the older post-war homes found in the area.
Apart from infills, a variety of real estate in West Hillhurst provides homeownership opportunities for buyers of all sorts with condominiums like The Savoy by Truman offering multi-family living plus several other attached townhome-style projects found along its streets.
