Property Description
The Boxcar House, a Topanga landmark property is ready to welcome its next creative wave. The main house is flooded with warm light and original details, large wood beams and a stone fireplace anchor the living room. Two large bedrooms and a serene redwood deck with a hot-tub are ready to be enjoyed. Additional separate guesthouse-studio is currently used as a rental. Meandering paths connect the outdoor patios and gardens leading you out to nature. The iconic Topanga Boxcar was installed in the early 70s by Bruce Sunkees (Boxcar Bruce) as an unorthodox bridge using two cranes to lower it on its concrete pillars over the creek. Since then the Grand Canyon Rail Road boxcar has been home to several ventures, including a mechanics garage and an artists studio visited by many during Topanga Artitst Studio Tour and has outlived the Grand Canyon Rail Road itself! Own a piece of history and enjoy a front-row seat during the famous Topanga Days Parade. All this on aprox. 2 acres centrally located close to Topanga shops and restaurants, hiking trails and the beach. Canyon living at its best!

Recorded sales in this period (0)
No recorded sales in this range. Select All available for older records; missing records do not mean the home never sold.
ZIP averages use publicly displayable closed sales from our licensed MLS feed, matched to the same ZIP and exact property type. Months with fewer than 3 sales are omitted; the current month is incomplete. Lines connect available monthly observations across gaps and do not represent measured prices in missing months. These averages are not adjusted for size, condition, or location within the ZIP, and are not an appraisal. Feed coverage may not include every sale. All available shows the available home and ZIP history, with mortgage rates over the same dates.
Mortgage benchmark: Freddie Mac Primary Mortgage Market Survey®. © Freddie Mac. Weekly national 30-year fixed rates, not APRs or a loan quote. Actual terms vary. Methodology changed in November 2022. The chart does not establish that interest-rate changes caused a home’s price changes.
Lines connect recorded asking and sale prices. They are visual guides, not estimates of the home’s value between those dates.
