What do homes in Larchmont actually sell for?

Redfin shows five Larchmont-area sales with closing dates between July 9 and August 21, 2026, and they ranged from $1,150,000 to $3,500,000. The middle one, a three bedroom on Lucerne Boulevard, closed at $1,740,598. Five sales is a small sample, so read it as a snapshot of a few streets over about six weeks, not a neighborhood average.

We covered the character of the neighborhood in our Larchmont Village guide, including why portal boundaries run wider than the half square mile around the boulevard. This post stays on the dated sales, and that boundary point matters here too, because Redfin's Larchmont page pulls in homes from the surrounding 90004 blocks.

The five dated sales

The table comes from Redfin's Larchmont recently sold page. The price per square foot column is my own arithmetic from Redfin's price and square footage, rounded to the nearest dollar. Redfin does not label the property type on most of these entries, so I kept only the sales with a closing date and left out the condominiums, which Redfin shows alongside them.

AddressSale dateSale priceBeds / bathsSq ftPrice per sq ft
313 N Norton AvenueJul 9, 2026$1,150,0002 / 11,119$1,028
5651 Clinton StreetJul 31, 2026$3,500,0004 / 53,205$1,092
588 N Lucerne BoulevardAug 5, 2026$1,740,5983 / 21,201$1,449
611 N Serrano AvenueAug 12, 2026$1,200,0003 / 21,615$743
616 Lillian WayAug 21, 2026$2,740,0003 / 3.52,026$1,352

Redfin lists seven more sales on the same page with no closing date, so I left them out of the table and the math. Redfin also tags the Serrano and Lillian Way sales as nearby homes rather than core Larchmont results, and I have included them because they closed in the same weeks and sit in the same ZIP code. The type of each home is not stated, and a few of these entries are described as bungalows, so confirm the details before you compare any of them to your own house.

Two things stand out. First, the price per square foot ran from about $743 to $1,449, a very wide band. The Lucerne Boulevard bungalow at $1,449 sold for more per square foot than the 3,205 square foot Clinton Street sale at $1,092, which tells you that size alone does not set the price here. Second, the spread in total price is large. The cheapest sale was about a third of the most expensive one, and all five closed within seven weeks.

How this compares with the monthly median

Redfin's Larchmont housing market page shows a median sale price of $1,531,000 for March 2026, up 20.1% year over year, based on ten homes sold. That figure includes condominiums, so it sits below the middle of the house sales above. It is also one month, and with ten sales a month the median can move a lot when a couple of larger homes close.

The practical lesson is the same one we draw in most of these spotlights. Use the median to understand the market's general level, and use closed sales on comparable streets to understand a specific house.

What this means for a seller

The dated sales show smaller original homes trading around $1.15 million to $1.74 million and larger homes closing between $2.74 million and $3.5 million. If you own in or near Larchmont, the useful question is which of these sales your house resembles on size, lot, condition and street, not what the median says.

If that is the decision in front of you, you can request a confidential valuation for your Larchmont home, and we will compare it against closed sales on your own blocks rather than a single neighborhood figure.

What this means for a buyer

With sales spread from $1.15 million to $3.5 million, a Larchmont search is really several searches. A buyer at $1.2 million is shopping for something quite different from a buyer at $2.7 million, even on neighboring streets. Browse what is currently available in the Los Angeles search, and read the disclosure package early. For older homes, ask for the permit history, the termite report and any foundation or plumbing upgrades before you remove contingencies. Our Windsor Square guide is a useful comparison if you are also looking at the larger lots just to the east.

Transfer tax: the $5.4 million line

Larchmont sits inside the City of Los Angeles, so Measure ULA applies to high-value sales. According to the city's Measure ULA FAQ, the tax starts at 4% on the portion of a sale at or above $5,400,000, with a higher 5.5% tier starting at $10,900,000, and the thresholds are adjusted each year. None of the five sales above reached the first tier. The highest, on Clinton Street, closed at $3,500,000.

The county documentary transfer tax of $1.10 per $1,000 also applies, so a $1.74 million sale carries about $1,915 at the county level. Confirm the current thresholds, and who pays what, with your escrow officer before you set a price or write an offer.

Frequently Asked Questions

How much do homes in Larchmont sell for? The five dated sales on Redfin between July 9 and August 21, 2026 ranged from $1,150,000 to $3,500,000, with a middle figure of $1,740,598. That is a small sample from a few streets, so it describes recent activity, not a neighborhood average.

Does Measure ULA apply in Larchmont? Yes, because Larchmont is in the City of Los Angeles. The city's FAQ lists a 4% tier starting at $5,400,000 and a 5.5% tier starting at $10,900,000, adjusted annually. None of the five recent sales above reached the first tier, and your escrow officer can confirm the current figures for a specific sale.

Why do Larchmont prices per square foot vary so much? Lot size, condition, the street, parking, and whether a home has been restored all change the price, and a square foot figure captures none of them. In these five sales the range ran from about $743 to $1,449 per square foot.

How do I compare Larchmont to nearby neighborhoods? Start with closed sales on comparable streets rather than a ZIP code median. Our Larchmont Village guide covers the price bands, and the Windsor Square guide covers the larger lots nearby.

Should I use a local agent to sell my home in Larchmont? It helps to work with someone who has closed sales on the Mid-Wilshire and Hancock Park side of the city, who can read a disclosure package and permit history before you list, and who understands how Los Angeles transfer taxes work.

Twenty-two years of Los Angeles transactions have taught me that in an older neighborhood like Larchmont, the permit file and the street usually tell you more about a home's value than its square footage does.
