Southshore Hills Homes

Right out of the gate, Southshore has a wide variety of homes. Many have been remodeled with all the expected upgrades, and the rest make for a great project – there’s nothing like customizing to your own taste. They’re all traditional homes with some awesome views of Westlake Lake and hills. Scratch the itch to get outside and/or wind down around the lake or the community park.

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.

Southshore Hills | Quick Take

Lake views, a more diverse mix of buyers than you’d expect, and 1970s character next door to one of Westlake Village’s newer neighborhoods.

  • Lifestyle: Westlake Lake is nearby for walks and waterfront dining, shopping centers keep errands manageable, and a community park rounds it out. Easy living without much friction.
  • Identity: Southshore has more individuality than most Westlake Village neighborhoods at this price. Homes vary enough that you’re unlikely to end up in something that looks like your neighbor’s. Lake and hill views on many lots.
  • Trade-off: 1970s builds sitting right next to Three Springs, which is noticeably newer. The contrast is visible and some homes show their age more than others.
  • Bottom line: Works for families, empty nesters, and retirees who want lake proximity, individual home character, and a neighborhood that isn’t trying to be something it isn’t.

What's To Love

We really love the lake. There’s something peaceful about a body of water and we highly recommend the lakeside restaurants. The nearby shopping centers keep the daily stresses at bay – Westlake makes checking all the chores off the list easy. And of course when work is done, grabbing a drink or catching a movie is equally easy.

What's Not To Love

The homes can look their age especially when compared to Southshore’s younger next door neighbor Three Springs. Older often means original so plan on doing some remodeling and updating.

Who Should Look Here

While most similar style homes in this area of Westlake Village are dominated by young families, Southshore Hills is more diverse. It definitely has it’s share of young families, but many retirees and empty nesters call it home too. The distinct look and character of each home offers a nice contrast to some of the other homes in the area. And the views of the lake and proximity to conveniences is a definite draw too.

SOUTHSHORE HILLS FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS


Most buyers assume Three Springs is the obvious choice because it’s newer. Southshore Hills offers something different. More architectural variety, more view lots, and a neighborhood that feels less like a production development and more like an established community.

Prices typically run $1.5M-$2.5M. The range reflects meaningful differences in lot position, views, and condition. Homes with lake or hill views command a noticeable premium over those without.

Many homes have lake or hill views, and the elevated position of parts of the neighborhood gives some lots a sense of openness that’s hard to find at this price in Westlake Village. It’s one of the features buyers discover after they start touring that they didn’t know to look for.

Many buyers are looking for something that doesn’t feel cookie-cutter. The combination of mature landscaping, varied architecture, and view lots gives Southshore Hills a personality that’s difficult to recreate in newer developments.

Buyers who value newer construction often prefer Three Springs. Buyers who appreciate architectural variety, established landscaping, and view lots frequently end up choosing Southshore Hills instead.

Southshore Hills attracts buyers who want something with a little more personality than a typical tract neighborhood. You’ll find families, empty nesters, and retirees who value the views, established feel, and proximity to the lake more than having the newest home in town.

The homes are older than many of the neighborhoods buyers compare them to, so updates matter. Two homes at similar prices can offer very different ownership experiences depending on the quality of renovations and ongoing maintenance.
