The Project
Eight three-bedroom homes on one Culver City lot, our largest SB 684 plan to date and the fifth run of the playbook.
The Galvin VIII is planned as eight new fee-simple homes of about 1,350 square feet each, with three bedrooms, three and a half baths and a private rooftop deck. Each home will sit on its own parcel and sell individually, like a single-family home, with no HOA.
The property is in escrow and may not close. If it does, it will be the fifth time the team has run the ministerial SB 684 playbook in Culver City, with the same architect and the same sequence as The Culver VI, The Harter V, The Helms VI and The Sentney VI.

The Location
Why Culver City.
One of the most active places in Los Angeles County for SB 684: multifamily-zoned blocks in the flats, strong owner-occupant demand, and a location between the Westside and Downtown. SB 684 in Culver City →
A city of its ownAbout five square miles and roughly 40,000 residents, surrounded by Los Angeles’ Westside, with its own city hall, police, fire and planning department.
Studios and officesHome to Sony Pictures Studios and Amazon MGM Studios, with media and tech offices across downtown and the Hayden Tract.
SchoolsServed by Culver City Unified School District, a draw for the owner-occupant buyers these homes are designed for.
Getting aroundMetro’s E Line stops in Culver City, the Ballona Creek bike path runs to the coast, and Santa Monica, Downtown and LAX are all close.
Downtown Culver CityA walkable core of restaurants, theaters and the Culver Steps, with the Baldwin Hills Scenic Overlook nearby.
No Measure ULACulver City is outside the City of Los Angeles, so LA’s Measure ULA transfer tax does not apply. Culver City has its own transfer tax.
