Gated: The Meadows at Lake Sherwood
The Meadows at Lake Sherwood has some bragging rights for what it brings to the table without wearing the dollar sign (well, it’s all relative, but it hits some high points for the price range). It’s a gated community and the homes have big open floor plans with grand windows that look out to Westlake’s hills. Arguably best of all, the solitude and privacy of Lake Sherwood is soothing to say the least. But need not to worry, Westlake Village is still only a few short miles away.
Westlake Village | The Overview
Curious what it’s really like to live in Westlake Village beyond this neighborhood? From lake lifestyle and dining to schools, pricing, and how it compares to nearby towns, here’s the full local breakdown.
The Meadows | Quick Take
Gated Lake Sherwood living next to Sherwood Country Club withthe illusion of seclusion, minutes from everything.
- Lifestyle: Grand windows, open floor plans, and hill views in a setting that feels removed from Westlake Village even though it’s just a few miles away. Sherwood Country Club is practically next door.
- Identity: Late-90s builds in one of the most serene settings in the area, with the privacy of Lake Sherwood and the convenience of Westlake Village close behind. Gated entry and newer construction at a price that’s still south of full custom.
- Trade-off: About 100 homes with a relatively uniform look. If individuality in architecture matters, this probably isn’t it.
- Bottom line: Best for families and couples who want gated, newer construction in a peaceful setting without sacrificing easy access to Westlake Village’s dining and shopping.
