Oakmore Real Estate

The Oakmore neighborhood is where I was born and spent most of my life. Centered around the small shopping district, on the south side of Sausal Creek canyon spanned by the Leimert bridge. The old Key line trolley cars used the wide area at the base of Leimert Blvd. as a turnaround point.

When I was young, there were two gas stations across from Rocky's market as well as a seprate liquor store. For years, my family ran a moving company , Park-Tilden Movers, from the site of the office building on the corner of Clemens and Leimert. My first job was as a stock boy for Rocky's market and I have fond memories of the drugstore on the corner of Arden and Leimert. They had a 10 cent popcorn machine and a great supply of model airplanes and toys to fuel my childhood imagination. Today, the area is composed of numerous offices as well as pizza, an Aikido studio, hair salons, and other small businesses. [ Read more about Oakmore...]

The trails at the end of Bridgeview Drive allow for wonderful places to hike, bike, walk dogs and enjoy the tranquil beauty of Dimond Park. Construction of the surrounding homes started in 1926 when Walter Leimert and his Park Boulevard Company built the Leimert Bridge. This allowed access to the hills and neighborhood that is now Oakmore. 440 homes were originally built over the 150 acres the constituted the Development. Many of these homes were built with deep lots and residents have taken full advantage by beautifully landscaping their backyards.

While to overall character of the neighborhoods hasn't changed much, newer construction techniques have allowed larger homes to be built on the hillside above the canyon. Public Schools included in the district include Joaquin Miller and Glenview for elementary, Montera and Edna Brewer for middle, and Skyline and Oakland for High School. The private Head-Royce school is also a very popular choice for many in the neighborhood.
