About 1203 W Gardena Blvd Gardena, CA 90247
Welcome to 1203 W. Gardena Blvd (Unit A)—a clean, modern three-bedroom, two-bath home offered at $3,200 per month. This newer-construction residence pairs an open-concept layout with everyday convenience: a ground-floor patio for fresh-air lounging, a private two-car garage, and in-unit washer/dryer hookups. The kitchen is dialed-in with stainless appliances—stove, two microwaves, dishwasher, side-by-side refrigerator, and a bonus mini-fridge—so meal prep and entertaining are a breeze. Tenant pays all utilities except trash and gardening, keeping monthly bills simple. The location puts you right on the edge of Old Town Gardena's classic main-street energy—walk to markets, shops, and the post office, and pop across the way to neighborhood favorite Giuliano's Delicatessen & Bakery for Italian sandwiches, breads, and pastries. Around town, you'll find a deep bench of local eats—from standout Japanese restaurants to burger spots and brunch favorites—plus parks and green spaces for a quick reset, including Rowley Memorial Park, Mas Fukai Park, and Genser Park just a short drive away. Commuting is straightforward with easy access to the 110, 405, and 91 corridors that ring the South Bay. For school-age households, the home sits within LAUSD's Region South with nearby campuses such as Denker Avenue Elementary, Peary Middle, and Gardena Senior High (prospective residents should verify current boundaries and enrollment). The result is a practical, well-connected home base with room to spread out—and quick access to everyday essentials.
