Tara Hill

Tara Hill

Tara Hill is more than just a condo complex. It’s a community with history. Built on land that was once part of MGM’s backlot, it carries a touch of Hollywood legacy similar to Studio Estates. Classic films like Gone With the Wind were shot here, and the community’s name nods to that famous Southern mansion. Today, Tara Hill combines that historic backdrop with modern comforts, offering residents a quiet, gated neighborhood in the center of Culver City.

Tara Hill’s Local Feel

Life at Tara Hill feels relaxed and neighborly. Mature trees and landscaped courtyards give the property a park-like atmosphere. Residents often cite the strong sense of community as one of the biggest draws. This is true whether they’re from young professionals, families, or retirees. The complex is walkable to markets, coffee shops, and everyday essentials, yet tucked away enough to feel like a retreat.

Inside the gates, amenities add to the resort-style feel. There are two pools, two saunas, a fitness center, children’s play areas, on-site laundry, and secure parking. Many units include balconies with city or courtyard views. These only add to the sense of privacy and comfort.

Longtime local favorites such as Tito’s Tacos, Johnnie’s Pastrami, and Metro Café are also nearby.

For outdoor excursions, Culver City Park and Fox Hills Park are both minutes away. They offer trails, playgrounds, and open green space. Between the dining and recreation, residents often say the variety at their doorstep is one of Tara Hill’s biggest perks.
