Benedict Canyon This area has some of the most exclusive real estate in Beverly Hills. Originally part of Rancho de las Aguas, Benedict Canyon is known for having most of its original canyon terrain and wildlife intact. Parts of it almost feels rural. This is all due to the Benedict Canyon Association (BCA), started in 1948. The BCA is dedicated to preserving the beauty, safety, environment and quality of life in the canyon and due to its activism, Benedict Canyon remains the only canyon that is 100% residential. Most of the homes here range from 700 square-foot homes that were built in the 1920 and were used as hunting cabins. Nowadays, you will find newer-construction Mediterranean homes upwards of 12,000-square feet most of which are neatly hidden from view of passersby. While there are some mid-priced homes in the area, the trend is for residences to be impressive, expansive and expensive.

Boundaries: Benedict Canyon connects Sherman Oaks in the Valley to Beverly Hills from its high point at the crest line on Mulholland Drive and ends near the junction of Sunset Boulevard where the famous Beverly Hills Hotel is located. Benedict Canyon is parallel and to the east of the Canyon are its two sisters, Franklin Canyon and Coldwater Canyons.

Past and Present Neighborhood Celebrity Residents: Jay Leno, Lisa Krudrow, Bruce Springsteen, and David Beckham; moguls David Geffen and Ron Burkle.
