The Pacific Palisades real estate market has been expanding over the past several years as new developments have crept up to the tops of the canyons, providing for outstanding views, privacy, and the luxury of brand new homes. As in Malibu, development in Pacific Palisades began in the 1920s. Unlike Malibu, however, which was a private estate, the land that was to be Pacific Palisades was dotted with crops and livestock.

Generally speaking, in Pacific Palisades, the higher up in the canyons you go, the newer the properties become. At the lower elevations, you will also find more multi-unit structures, many of which have been renovated and turned into luxury condominiums. Old or new, however, Pacific Palisades is definitely a community filled with luxury homes and beautiful estates.

Many estates in the Palisades, with their spectacular views and often stunning architecture, sell for well over ten million dollars. The majority of homes enter the market in the one million to three million dollar range. Some of the neighborhoods in the Palisades are Huntington Palisades, Palisades Riviera (styled after the Amalfi Coast in Italy), and Palisades Highlands at the top of Santa Ynez Canyon.

Pacific Palisades, for all the new developments, still retains a sense of community, and that is one reason residents seem to like living here so much. Other reasons could be the area's incredible beauty and the elegance of the homes and estates.
