Welcome to Rolling Hills Estates
Prime location and perfect views for a community of equestrians
Charming homes nestle among lush nature in this sought-after South Bay city. Rolling Hills Estates enjoys a prime location with easy access into Downtown Long Beach, while still feeling removed and serene. It is woven through with bridle paths and walking trails, giving it an almost rural feel.
Rolling Hills Estates was part of the original master plan for the Palos Verdes Peninsula. As Rancho Palos Verdes and Palos Verdes Estates were developed, a tract of land was set aside for future development. Rolling Hills Estates was incorporated in 1957 and was designed primarily to cater to a luxurious, rural lifestyle.
The neighborhoods here are full of stables, both private and boarding stables, and it’s not uncommon to see riders on a trail at the edge of your property. The lots are large, sometimes many acres, and the spacious, ranch-style homes that sit on them are a hallmark of Rolling Hills Estates.
What to Love
- Abundant stables, pastures, and horse trails
