About the Building
The Westholme was completed in 1976 at 10590 Wilshire Boulevard, part of the mid-1970s wave that turned the corridor from a scattering of early towers into a wall of full-service condominiums. Its name nods to the Westwood–Holmby geography around it, but the architect and original developer are not established in any public source, and no trade-press record has surfaced, so buyers should be wary of any confident attribution. What the record does support is the date, the height and a staffed service model that has stayed remarkably consistent across the corridor for five decades.
The tower stands eighteen storeys. Most listing databases put the count at seventy-seven residences, while one corridor brokerage says eighty-four — a conflict best settled through the LA County Assessor portal or the association itself. Either figure yields a moderate per-floor count for the height. Listings describe floor-to-ceiling windows and fireplaces as recurring features through the stack, and because the building was permitted in the mid-1970s, it falls within the date window of the city's non-ductile concrete evaluation programme, a point developed in the due-diligence notes below.
The mix runs from one-bedroom to three-bedroom plans, with published interiors from roughly 1,200 to about 2,600 square feet. South-side homes are the prize of the stack: listings describe expansive views across Century City reaching to the ocean, while other exposures take the boulevard and the city skyline. As across the corridor, condition splits between preserved 1970s originals and comprehensively renovated homes, and that split shows up directly in per-square-foot pricing at this address, so recent comparable sales need reading by condition as much as by size.
The Westholme runs the full staffed model — doorman, concierge, valet parking and twenty-four-hour security — with an amenity set that stands out for two items: a paddle tennis court, which corridor marketing sites describe as one of only two on the corridor, and a rooftop jogging track, which one corridor brokerage likewise counts among just two on the strip. The rest of the published list includes a pool, spa, sauna, fitness room, conference room, wine cellar and barbecue area, with assigned and guest parking below in a controlled-entry garage.
In market position, the Westholme is a mid-corridor building in both address and vintage, sitting between Westwood Village to the west and the country-club stretch to the east. Its 1976 date lands just inside both of the regulatory lines that matter on the corridor: the pre-1977 permit window for the city's concrete-retrofit programme, and the pre-October-1978 line for rent stabilization on units that are leased out. Neither is a reason to walk away — most of its neighbours share one or both — but both belong on the diligence list here.
Amenities & Services
The Residences
Published plans run from about 1,200 to roughly 2,600 square feet, spanning one-, two- and three-bedroom layouts — a wider spread than many corridor towers, so the building serves both downsizers and larger households.
Listings repeatedly describe full-height window walls and in-unit fireplaces, a pairing more common in the corridor's 1970s towers than its 1960s ones, giving principal rooms strong light and outlook.
Units on the south side are described as looking across Century City all the way to the ocean on clear days; north and boulevard exposures trade that for hill and skyline outlooks.
Fifty years of ownership turnover means finishes vary widely door to door — preserved 1970s interiors sell against fully rebuilt homes, and appraisals at this address reflect that spread.
Corridor listings characterise the plans as practical, with building storage available; confirm which storage space, if any, conveys with a given unit, since allocations are not published.
Seventy-seven residences — or eighty-four, depending on the source — across eighteen storeys puts a handful of homes on each floor, fewer than the corridor's biggest towers though more than its boutique ones.
Due Diligence
Listings show valet service, assigned spaces, guest parking and a controlled-entry subterranean garage. Which stalls convey, and whether they are tandem or side by side, is not published — confirm the deeded spaces during escrow.
Multiple listing sources state pets are allowed subject to association rules, but no limits on number, size or breed are published. Get the current written pet policy from management before committing.
Units here appear for lease, and the 1976 build date puts rented condominiums at this address inside Los Angeles's Rent Stabilization Ordinance, which reaches units first built on or before 1 October 1978. Ask the HOA about lease minimums.
Dues inclusions are not published in any authoritative source; one aggregator notes residents pay electricity, cable and internet separately. Read the association budget to see what the dues actually fund before relying on listing copy.
A 1976 completion almost certainly means a permit before the 13 January 1977 cutoff of the city's non-ductile concrete ordinance — the permit date, not the finish date, controls. Verify the building's programme status and any orders with LADBS.
No retrofit or major renewal programme is publicly documented. The rooftop track, paddle court, pool and 1970s mechanical plant all carry maintenance cycles; the reserve study and recent minutes will show what is funded.
Doorman, concierge, valet and twenty-four-hour security are consistently advertised. Actual desk hours and the employment structure behind them are not published, and both flow straight into dues, so ask management directly.
The association's alteration rules are not public. Board approval with flooring and work-hour conditions is the norm in staffed towers of this era, but nothing specific is documented — obtain the written architectural guidelines before pricing a renovation.
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.
