The Mews Houses- small lot subdivision in Atwater Village
There's another small lot subdivision in Los Angeles- this time in Atwater Village.
The Mews small lot subdivision is an eco-friendly community consisting of 23 brand new, fee-simple single family homes located in Atwater Village in the 4200 block of Perlita. The Mews Houses range in size from 1500 to 1600sf and have solar power and 2-car garages. Their open floor plans in include high ceilings and walls of glass and open to private courtyards. The modern style homes were designed by award-winning architects Corsini and Stark.
Do I like these new Mews Houses in Atwater? Yes- I think they are really nice, look great and have really nice layouts. My problem is that the location of these homes does not command the prices they are asking. Currently there are only 2 units listed in the MLS (though many others are available). These two are both 3 bedroom, 2 ½ bath. One is listed for $650,000 and the other is $675,000. Once again a developer is putting Silver Lake prices on homes outside of Silver Lake. Would you buy a house in a small lot subdivision on Perlita in Atwater Village if you could buy a home for the same price in Silver Lake? I certainly wouldn't.
If the prices come down to something more in line with the location, the Mews Houses in Atwater should have no problem selling. Right now I just don't see that happening.

Jenny, great point about proper positioning and pricing. I do love the cool hip look. Now if this was in the Hollywood Hills it would have millions in front of it:)
Hi Endre- you got that right about the pricing in the Hills. I would have written this entirely differently had they been built in a better location. :-)
