About the Building
Coronado, at 7100 Playa Vista Drive, is a four-story community of about 71 condominiums completed in 2007, and its defining asset is position: it sits near CenterPointe Club, the master association's original clubhouse, and the Sports Park, the district's largest stretch of playing fields and courts. For households organized around recreation and the neighborhood's public life, Coronado puts the pool, the gym, the fields and Playa Vista Elementary School within a few minutes on foot, with the Runway retail district and its Whole Foods Market not much further.
The building reads as contemporary rather than themed, with open floor plans, high ceilings and large-scale windows called out consistently in resale records. Upper-floor residences are the signature stock: aggregator listings describe double-height window walls and loft levels in top-floor plans, which bring volume and light unusual for the district's mid-2000s buildings. Ground-oriented homes pick up private patios instead. Access and parking run through a gated subterranean garage with guest stalls, and aggregators report most units carrying two spaces; verify assignments for any specific home.
The unit mix runs wider than most Playa Vista condominiums: two-, three- and even four-bedroom plans in single-level and multi-level configurations. Published sizes conflict at the top end, with one aggregator citing homes from about 1,100 to just over 2,200 square feet and another reporting units up to roughly 2,600, so treat the recorded assessor square footage for a given unit as the reliable figure. The larger plans compete directly with the district's townhomes and small houses, which broadens the buyer pool at resale.
Daily life leans on the master association's amenities more than on anything inside the building. CenterPointe Club's pools, fitness floor, screening room and business center function as Coronado's de facto clubhouse given the proximity, and the Sports Park adds fields, courts and playgrounds across the way. The employment picture matches the rest of the district: the technology and media campuses around the former Hughes runway and hangar sites, including Google's, are a short walk or ride, which supports both owner-occupant and rental demand.
The ownership structure is standard Playa Vista: dues to Coronado's own association plus dues to the master community association that funds CenterPointe Club, The Resort and the parks. As a first-phase parcel, the property may carry a Mello-Roos community facilities district special tax; confirm the amount and remaining term on the title report and tax bill. The district's engineered history applies here as everywhere on the former Hughes and Ballona lands, with methane mitigation and monitoring systems built in under city requirements. Public sources do not clearly name Coronado's original developer, so request construction history from the association.
Amenities & Services
The Residences
The mix spans two-, three- and four-bedroom homes in single-level and multi-level configurations, a wider spread than most district condominiums. Four-bedroom condo plans are rare in Playa Vista and seldom reach the market.
Upper-floor residences are described in listings with double-height window walls and loft levels, delivering volume that most 2007-era buildings nearby lack. These plans carry the building's premium and photograph accordingly.
Multi-level upper plans add loft areas overlooking the main room, used as offices, dens or guest space. Confirm on the plan whether the loft is open or enclosed, which changes appraisal treatment.
Ground-oriented homes trade the view stock's volume for private patios, useful for pets and outdoor dining. Patio homes sit closest to street and garage activity, so tour at busy hours.
The largest plans reach past 2,200 square feet, with one aggregator reporting units near 2,600. At that size, Coronado competes with townhomes and small houses, not just with other condominiums.
Parking is subterranean behind controlled access, with guest stalls, and aggregators report two spaces with most homes. Space count, tandem layout and storage vary by unit, so verify assignments in escrow.
Due Diligence
Coronado owners also pay the Playa Vista master community association, which funds CenterPointe Club, The Resort and the parks, the very amenities that define this address. Review both associations' budgets and documents in escrow.
The building occupies a first-phase Playa Vista parcel, where a community facilities district can levy a Mello-Roos special tax on top of base property taxes. Confirm the amount and remaining term on the title report and tax bill.
As throughout the district's former Hughes-era lands, the building incorporates city-required methane mitigation, venting and monitoring. Ask the association how the system is maintained and whether monitoring documentation is available for review.
Public sources do not clearly document Coronado's original developer. Ask the association for construction history, any past defect litigation and the log of major repairs completed since the 2007 delivery.
Aggregators conflict on the top of the size range, citing maximums from just over 2,200 to roughly 2,600 square feet. Rely on assessor records and, where precision matters, a measured appraisal for any specific unit.
The association maintains a 2007 building now approaching its second decade: elevators, garage waterproofing and exterior sealing are the predictable capital items. Read the reserve study and recent minutes for how they are funded.
Playa Vista Elementary sits nearby, which drives family demand but also weekday drop-off traffic on surrounding streets. Confirm current school enrollment boundaries directly with LAUSD rather than relying on listing claims.
Confirm lease minimums and short-term prohibitions in the CC&Rs; Playa Vista associations generally bar short-term rentals. The building's larger plans attract long-term family tenants, which tends to keep turnover moderate.
Everything above is drawn from public records, city permit data and published sources. The association’s statutory disclosure package is the only authoritative answer on dues, rules, reserves, insurance and litigation — Ben will request it and read it with you before you remove contingencies.
