About This Home
This 6-bedroom, 6-bathroom residential multi family at 120 Mildred Ave in Venice, CA is listed for $7,700,000 ($1,100 per sqft). Built in 1913, the home offers 7,000 sqft of living space on a 0.16 acres lot.
A rare opportunity to own a true piece of Venice history, 120 & 122 Mildred comprise the iconic Vanguard Lofts, a one-of-a-kind 7,000+ square-foot compound originally rooted in the 1924 warehouse that housed the Venice Vanguard newspaper's printing press.
Reimagined through a Danny Kaplan-designed renovation, the property merges preserved warehouse character with bold industrial architecture, creating a space that is both historically significant and exceptionally functional. Offered as one extraordinary compound, the property includes 6 bedrooms, 6 bathrooms, and an additional 6 private offices across two interconnected architectural residences.
With soaring open-truss ceilings, polished concrete floors, dramatic volume, and approximately 2,500 square feet of ground-floor space at 120 Mildred alone, the compound offers unmatched flexibility for a creative campus, live/work headquarters, multigenerational living, or an expansive private residence.
Thoughtfully designed for both daily living and inspired work, the property features multiple studio and mezzanine spaces, chef's kitchens, private gardens, decks, roof terraces, and ample onsite parking, all just moments from the sand. What makes Vanguard Lofts especially rare is the seamless balance of scale, history, and adaptability.
Originally designed as two independent units of approximately 4,000 and 3,000 square feet, the compound now presents a singular opportunity to own a landmark architectural property in the heart of Venice Beach, adjacent to Windward Circle and close to Abbott Kinney's celebrated shops and restaurants. This is more than a home or workspace, it is a legacy property with the soul of old Venice and the versatility to shape its next chapter.
