A practical breakdown of all 7 major Oak Park townhome neighborhoods, and how to think about them.

Oak Park is made up of 24 neighborhoods, including 7 townhome communities. For a lot of buyers, townhomes are the most realistic way to get into Oak Park. Especially if the goal is access to Oak Park Unified Schools, which is consistently ranked among the strongest districts in the state and #1 here in the Conejo Valley.

And because Oak Park is small, it’s easy to assume all seven townhome communities are basically the same. After all, they all:

• Were built around the same time.
• Have similar architectural styles.
• Feed into the same schools.
• Offer amenities and carry similar HOA fees.

At first glance, they can blur together. But once you start walking them, you feel the differences.

Some are obvious: price point, square footage, how tight the spacing feels.

Others are more subtle: how private it feels, how close you are to coffee or groceries, whether your daily routine leans more toward Agoura Hills or Westlake Village.

Those little differences end up shaping your day-to-day more than most people expect.

Instead of ranking them, I group them into three categories based on the client feedback I’ve received helping people move to Oak Park over the last 25 years.

How I Break Them Down

Getting Started – If your goal is getting into Oak Park without overextending, this is where many buyers begin. The floor plans are on the smaller side, but the locations are solid, and appreciation has historically been steady. The trade-off? As your needs grow, you may eventually want more space.

Sweet Spot – For many buyers, this is the middle ground that just makes sense. More space than the starter communities, still reasonable from a price standpoint, and a number of single-story floor plans that make long-term living easier. It’s not uncommon for buyers to stay here longer than they originally planned.

Elevated Living – These homes represent the higher end of Oak Park townhome living. Some offer more space, others offer better positioning or walkability. All tend to appeal to buyers who want something a step up from a true starter community.

Let’s take a closer look at Oak Park’s townhome communities.

Quick Comparison Snapshot

GETTING STARTED

Shadow Ridge

Shadow Ridge Quick Stats

Price: $450k-$650k
Bedrooms: 1–2
Size: 780–1,244 sq ft
Units: ~440
Year Built:1990s
HOA Fee: $595 Monthly

Shadow Ridge is the most affordable way into Oak Park. And for an entry-level price point, it offers more amenities than you’d expect. Two pools, a gym, racquetball, plus tennis and basketball courts tucked up the hill give it a very active feel. If your priority is getting into Oak Park Unified without stretching the budget too far, this is often where the conversation starts.

What Buyers Tend to Like

• Extensive amenities compared to most Oak Park townhome communities
• HOA includes cable, internet, and trash, which simplifies budgeting
• Strong history as an accessible entry point into Oak Park

What To Be Aware Of

• HOA has received mixed feedback at times
• Attached construction and tighter spacing means neighbor noise can occasionally be a factor.
• While the top level condo offers vaulted ceilings and great views, the community lacks elevators which means you may be climbing up to 3 flights of stairs for some units.

Shadow Oaks

Shadow Oaks Quick Stats

Price: $600k-$750k
Bedrooms: 1–2
Size: 1204-1236 sq ft
Units: ~80
Year Built:1990
HOA Fee: $619 Monthly

Shadow Oaks is the sister community of Shadow Ridge, but feels like a small step up. Unlike Shadow Ridge, which includes a mix of condos and townhomes, Shadow Oaks is strictly townhomes with just two floor plan options. Both layouts feature dual primary suites with private bathrooms – something you don’t often find at this price point. With fewer units and slightly more breathing room, it tends to feel quieter and a bit more residential.

What Buyers Tend to Like

• Larger floor plans compared to Shadow Ridge
• Dual primary suite layout, ideal for roommates or guests
• Smaller community with a pool and clubhouse area

What To Be Aware Of

• Garage access varies by unit. Some connect directly through the courtyard, others do not
• Most homes are all-electric rather than gas
• With only ~80 units, inventory is limited and homes don’t hit the market often

SWEET SPOT

Country Vista

Country Vista Quick Stats

Price: $650k-$975k
Bedrooms: 2–4
Size: 1100-1700 sq ft
Units: ~100
Year Built: Early 80s
HOA Fee: $595 Monthly

Country Vista is one of the more diverse townhome communities in Oak Park. You’ll find everything from traditional attached townhomes to stand-alone units that feel almost like small bungalows. Some streets feature true single-story layouts with attached garages, while others have one-level homes that sit above the garage. Garage setups vary too, some are attached and private, others are detached.

That variety is part of what makes Country Vista interesting, but it also means you really need to walk it to understand what fits you best.

What Buyers Tend to Like

• A more rural, tucked-away feel in certain sections, with some homes backing to open hills and occasional deer sightings
• Appeals to both entry-level buyers and downsizers looking for single-story, low-maintenance living
• Access to pools, tennis courts, and nearby parks and trails

What To Be Aware Of

• If direct-access garages are important, you’ll need to be selective, Not all layouts offer that
• Some of the more unique floor plans aren’t for everyone, so they can take a little longer to sell depending on the market.
• Because the community has so many layout variations, pricing can vary significantly

Country Highlands

Country Highlands Quick Stats

Price: $750k-$850k
Bedrooms: 2–3
Size: 1012-1449 sq ft
Units: ~106
Year Built: Mid 80s
HOA Fee: $499 Monthly

If some of the other townhome communities leave you feeling a little boxed in, Country Highlands is usually a pleasant surprise. The spacing between homes is noticeably better, and in many cases you’re only sharing a wall at the garage. That means more windows, more light, and less of that “attached housing” feel once you’re inside.

You’ll also find quite a few single-story layouts here, along with small, manageable yards. It’s one of the reasons this neighborhood appeals to two very different buyers: young families who want a little more breathing room, and downsizers who are done with stairs and big maintenance projects but aren’t ready to feel cramped.

What Buyers Tend to Like

• Quieter streets, greenbelts, and more space between neighbors
• Easy parking and convenient access to the community pool
• Deerhill Park just outside the neighborhood with courts, fields, and playgrounds
• Some larger floor plans that feel closer to a single-family home

What To Be Aware Of

• If you see a price that feels especially attractive, there’s usually a reason – many of the lower-priced homes haven’t been updated in a while.
• The yards are easy to take care of, which most buyers love, but they’re still modest in size compared to a true single-family home.
• The single-story layouts are popular, especially with downsizers, so when one hits the market it doesn’t always sit around for long.

Country Village

Country Village Quick Stats

Price: $750k-$900k
Bedrooms: 2–3
Size: 1146-1827 sq ft
Units: ~50
Year Built: Early 80s
HOA Fee: $526 Monthly

If you’ve walked a few of the Oak Park townhome communities and thought, “I just need a little more room,” Country Village is usually where I take people next. It has that same greenbelt feel as Country Highlands, more space between the homes, quieter streets, but the difference shows up once you step inside.

A couple of the floor plans push past 1,700 square feet, which in Oak Park townhome terms is meaningful. You still get the attached-home lifestyle, but it starts to feel less like a starter and more like somewhere you could settle in for a while.

What Buyers Tend to Like

• The square footage for the price. Larger floor plans are hard to find in Oak Park at this level
• A quieter, greenbelt setting with room between neighbors
• Easy access to pools, tennis courts, and nearby parks and trails. Everything still feels close without being right on top of you

What To Be Aware Of

• It’s a smaller community (around 50 units), so only a handful of homes typically hit the market each year
• The larger floor plans command a premium. Pricing can jump quickly depending on size and updates
• While there are single-story options, many of the larger layouts are two-story

ELEVATED LIVING

Capri

Capri Quick Stats

Price: $750k-$950k
Bedrooms: 2–3
Size: 1200-1743 sq ft
Units: ~341
Year Built: Early 90s
HOA Fee: $525 Monthly

Capri sits on the Westlake Village side of Oak Park, and you can feel it right away. The homes are newer than much of Oak Park, with more open layouts, higher ceilings, and better natural light. It’s also one of the more walkable spots in town. Red Oak Elementary is just outside the neighborhood, Indian Springs Park is nearby, and you’re within easy reach of coffee, groceries, and everyday errands.

There’s an energy here that’s a little different from some of the quieter communities. With two pools, tennis courts, and community centers, Capri tends to attract families who like being in the mix rather than tucked away.

What Buyers Tend to Like

• Proximity to Red Oak Elementary and Indian Springs Park
• Walkability to nearby shops and coffee
• Floor plans that feel newer and more open compared to other Oak Park townhomes

What To Be Aware Of

• Guest parking outside your garage can be limited
• No true single-story options, and yards are generally smaller
• The look is consistent throughout, great if you like uniformity, less so if you prefer variety

Canyon Cove

Canyon Cove Quick Stats

Price: $900k-$1.1M
Bedrooms: 3–4
Size: 1611-2004 sq ft
Units: ~74
Year Built: Mid 90s
HOA Fee: $620 Monthly

Canyon Cove is and feels like a step up. The homes sit side-by-side with one shared wall rather than stacked, which gives them a more house-like feel. Inside, the ceilings are higher, the layouts are more open, and there’s noticeably more light.

Parts of the neighborhood back to a tree-lined creek and walking trail, so it feels tucked away, yet you’re still just minutes from Westlake Village – home to our top restaurants and centers. For many buyers, this is where Oak Park townhome living starts to feel more like a house.

What Buyers Tend to Like

• Side-by-side design that feels more private
• Larger, open floor plans (including the only 4-bedroom option)
• Bigger backyards than most Oak Park townhomes
• Quiet setting with a community pool

What To Be Aware Of

• Homes backing Lindero Canyon Road can hear traffic
• HOA dues are on the higher end
• With only ~74 homes, inventory is limited and usually competitive
