Where is Trousdale Estates in Beverly Hills?

Trousdale Estates, Beverly Hills, sits north of Doheny Road in a lobe of the City of Beverly Hills that the City of Los Angeles borders on the west, north and east. The City of Los Angeles’ 2018 Bird Streets zoning report describes the Bird Streets as “generally bounded by Trousdale Estates neighborhood of the City of Beverly Hills to the west”. TKG files Trousdale Estates under its Beverly Hills hub. West Hollywood begins past the boundary’s southeast corner.

Edges of the boundary this page uses:

  • South: Doheny Road, from North Hillcrest Road to Loma Vista Drive
  • West: Loma Vista Drive, Carla Lane and a straight line behind Carla Ridge up to Cherokee Lane
  • North: Cherokee Lane to the tip at Loma Vista Drive, and east past Evelyn Place and Alto Cedro Drive
  • East: the Los Angeles city line, with Ridgemont Drive, Warbler Way, Flicker Place and Sierra Mar Drive on the Los Angeles side

Those are TKG’s polygon edges, not an official City of Beverly Hills boundary for Trousdale Estates, and they were not matched parcel by parcel to the City’s own Trousdale Estates area.

What is next to Trousdale Estates?

Greystone Mansion & Gardens is next to Trousdale Estates: the City of Beverly Hills’ “18.3 acre hillside site” at 905 Loma Vista Drive sits just outside the west edge of the boundary this page uses, 98 meters from it by TKG’s measurement. That distance is to TKG’s polygon, not to the City’s Trousdale Estates area. The City’s Greystone page says the site “includes terraced gardens for visitors to enjoy”.

Sunset Boulevard runs 202 meters from the Trousdale Estates boundary’s nearest edge, at North Sierra Drive, by TKG’s measurement. LA Metro’s schedules list Line 2 between Westwood and Exposition Park via Sunset Boulevard.

Seven other TKG boundaries overlap the Trousdale Estates boundary by at least 0.5% of either boundary’s area, only along its edges, and Wonderland’s 1.65% of it is the largest share: Bird Streets, Coldwater Canyon, La Collina, Beverly Crest, Sunset Hills, Wonderland and Hollywood Hills West.

What are the houses like in Trousdale Estates?

Trousdale Estates houses are single-family homes, and most Trousdale Estates listings describe a pool and claim a view: 20 of the 24 Trousdale Estates listings on November 8, 2026 described a pool on the property, and 23 claimed a view in the remarks or the MLS view field, per CRMLS. 11 of the 24 were built in 2000 or later.

Which architects designed homes in Trousdale Estates?

Richard Dorman, Wallace Neff, Paul R. Williams, Cliff May, A. Quincy Jones and Lloyd Wright are among the master architects who designed homes in Trousdale Estates, per the Los Angeles Conservancy. The Conservancy writes that the original design review board, “headed by architect Allen Siple, ensured that all houses would be at least 3,000 square feet but remain single-story”. That was the original development’s rule; for a house bought today, the City of Beverly Hills’ Zoning Code sets the standards.

Area Details

How is Trousdale Estates zoned?

Trousdale Estates is zoned R-1 One-Family Residential on the City of Beverly Hills zoning map dated July 23, 2025. Confirm the zone of a specific Trousdale Estates lot with the City of Beverly Hills before an offer depends on it.

The City’s Single-Family Regulations page sends Trousdale Estates owners to Article 26 of the Zoning Code for “maximum allowable floor area; height; required setbacks; required parking spaces; walls, fences, and hedges; landscaping and pavement; accessory structures; and construction related to level pads”. Those standards, not a listing’s remarks, decide what a Trousdale Estates buyer can add or rebuild.

Is there a height limit in Trousdale Estates?

Yes, Trousdale Estates has a height limit. The Beverly Hills Courier reported on November 16, 2023 that single-family lots in the Trousdale area “are required not to exceed a 14-foot height limit”, under restrictions “placed in 1985” and “revised in 1987”. The same report says Trousdale’s zoning ordinances “limit grading on properties only to the existing level pad and in areas that do not exceed a 20% slope”.

On November 9, 2023, the Beverly Hills Planning Commission unanimously rejected a zone text amendment for the Trousdale Estates area that would have allowed grading beyond the level pad for a daylighting basement in place of a second story, per the Courier. Price a Trousdale Estates rebuild inside the level-pad rule.

What does the Trousdale Estates view ordinance protect?

The Trousdale Estates view ordinance protects city views from foliage growing on a neighbor’s property, per the City of Beverly Hills’ Trousdale Estates View Restoration page. The City Council adopted it on December 6, 2011 (BHMC 10-8-101 et seq.), and the City’s guidelines limit it to views of the Los Angeles area basin, city lights and views toward the ocean included, and exclude “ridges or canyons not located in a line of sight to the Los Angeles area basin”.

A companion ordinance revised Trousdale Estates’ walls, fences and hedges standards (BHMC 10-3-2616), and neither applies “to properties located outside of the Beverly Hills City limits”. Before paying for a Trousdale Estates view, confirm that it faces the basin and that the parcel sits inside the City limits.

What construction rules apply in Trousdale Estates?

Construction in Trousdale Estates runs under City of Beverly Hills Ordinance 15-O-2683, adopted in 2015 “to regulate construction parking and heavy trucks”. The City’s Trousdale Estates Construction page sets three limits:

  • Hauling hours: 8:30 am to 3:15 pm
  • Weight: no vehicle with a gross weight of 50,400 pounds or more on any street in the Trousdale Estates area
  • Street parking: no more than two hauling or construction vehicles per construction site on a public street

The City Council directed the measures on June 17, 2014, citing “the significant levels of construction-related activity and the street grades”, per the City’s Trousdale Construction Measures. A Trousdale Estates rebuild carries those hours and limits into its schedule and budget.

Which school district serves Trousdale Estates?

Beverly Hills Unified School District serves Trousdale Estates, with each school assignment set by exact address. The Los Angeles County school district boundary layer returns Beverly Hills Unified at all 9 Trousdale Estates addresses checked, each on the Beverly Hills side of the city line; the two City of Los Angeles edge parcels inside the boundary were not checked. BHUSD’s School Finder works by address: “If your address is within the District, your designated school will appear below.”

Is Trousdale Estates in a Very High Fire Hazard Severity Zone?

Yes, Trousdale Estates is in a Very High Fire Hazard Severity Zone. The City of Beverly Hills’ Brush Clearance Program page reports that “the area north of Sunset Boulevard as well as a few blocks south” is designated as that zone, and the whole Trousdale Estates boundary lies north of Sunset Boulevard by TKG’s measurement.

The State Fire Marshal’s Local Responsibility Area map dated March 24, 2025, posted by the City as its fire hazard severity zone map, shows Trousdale Estates in the Very High color.

What the zone means for a Trousdale Estates owner, per the City of Beverly Hills and its 2026 brush clearance brochure:

  • Annual inspection: Fire Department field inspections on or after April 1 each year
  • 200 feet: clearance within 200 feet of any structure, including structures across the street
  • 250 feet: clearance within 250 feet of structures on slopes over 25 percent
  • Fuel modification: since January 1, 2023, for new construction, 2,500 square feet of new or re-landscaping, a change of occupancy, or work requiring fire sprinklers
  • Parking: limits on certain streets north of Sunset during “Extreme Fire Weather Conditions”

Is Trousdale Estates in a flood zone?

No, Trousdale Estates is not in a Special Flood Hazard Area. FEMA’s National Flood Hazard Layer shows Zone X, “AREA OF MINIMAL FLOOD HAZARD”, at all 9 Trousdale Estates points checked, and no other flood zone anywhere in the rectangle around the boundary. Minimal is not none, so check the exact address in FEMA’s Flood Map Service Center before relying on it.

Frequently asked questions about Trousdale Estates

What is the Trousdale Estates, Beverly Hills history?

Paul Trousdale developed Trousdale Estates. The Los Angeles Times reported in his 1990 obituary that in 1954 he bought “the 410-acre Doheny Ranch in the hills north of Beverly Hills” and that one-acre home sites in Trousdale Estates sold for $40,000. The City of Beverly Hills’ history of Greystone places the land sale after 1955, when Lucy Doheny “sold the majority of the original land to the Paul Trousdale Corporation”.

Is Trousdale Estates Los Angeles or Beverly Hills?

Trousdale Estates is in the City of Beverly Hills, not the City of Los Angeles. 99.3% of the boundary this page uses lies in the City of Beverly Hills and 0.7% in City of Los Angeles edge slivers, with no West Hollywood or unincorporated land, on the Los Angeles County city boundaries layer. Streets just west and north, such as Ridgecrest Road and Schuyler Road, carry Beverly Hills 90210 mailing addresses but sit in the City of Los Angeles.

Is there an official Trousdale Estates map?

Yes, the City of Beverly Hills zoning map, dated July 23, 2025, labels Trousdale Estates as one of the City’s three areas. The map describes itself as “for informational purposes”, and the boundary this page uses is TKG’s polygon, not matched to the City’s Trousdale Estates area parcel by parcel.

How many Trousdale Estates homes are there?

Trousdale Estates has 599 single-family residential lots by the Beverly Hills Courier’s count, in its November 16, 2023 report on the area’s height limit. That is a count of lots, not houses, and it is the Courier’s figure for the Trousdale area, not a count for the boundary this page uses.

What is the Trousdale Estates zip code?

Trousdale Estates’ ZIP code is 90210. Every Trousdale Estates listing on November 8, 2026, all 24, and the one Trousdale Estates sale between August 8 and November 6, 2026 used ZIP 90210, per CRMLS. The same ZIP covers City of Los Angeles streets next door, so 90210 does not settle which city a parcel is in.

What is the largest Trousdale Estates mansion for sale?

The largest Trousdale Estates listing by recorded size on November 8, 2026 was a 22,300-square-foot, eight-bedroom house built in 2014 on North Hillcrest Road, asking $70,000,000 after 12 days, per CRMLS. 22 of the 24 listings record a size, and the next largest was 12,709 square feet.

Get a Trousdale Estates offer number before you tour

On November 8, 2026, Trousdale Estates gave a buyer 24 asking prices and 1 closing from the prior 90 days to check them against, so the offer number has to be built, not read off a listing. It starts from the 35.7% per-foot gap between Beverly Hills MLS area asks and closings on this page, and from the parcel checks the City’s Trousdale rules raise.

A buyer strategy consult gives you that Trousdale Estates offer number before you tour, built from matched Beverly Hills closings, with the parcel checks done.

Next move: pick the Trousdale Estates listing, call 310-409-7242, and we will price it from the closings, not the asks.
