Westlake Trails Homes
Custom estate style living is a rare find in this section of Westlake Village and the Trails offers a unique lifestyle reminiscent of the early days.

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.
Westlake Trails | Quick Take
Winding streets, custom homes, and a pace of life that feels like Westlake Village before it got discovered.
- Lifestyle: Tree-lined streets across from the lake, less than a mile from Westlake’s best restaurants and shopping. Estate-scale living without the isolation that usually comes with it.
- Identity: One of the few places in Westlake Village where custom architecture and large lots are the norm rather than the exception.
- Trade-off: Custom to someone else’s taste can mean a top-to-bottom remodel. Maintaining a home and grounds at this scale takes real commitment of both budget and time.
- Bottom line: Best for buyers who want some real space and a house that doesn’t look like everything else.

What's To Love
The winding streets, rolling hills, and, of course, insanely gorgeous homes with style and architecture not often found in this area. And the location is top notch, across from the lake and less than a mile from our best attractions. It doesn’t get much better.
What's Not To Love
Custom often means custom to the original designers taste that may not fit yours meaning a top to bottom remodel may be in order. Ongoing maintenance of a home with grounds of this size isn’t for the faint of heart so plan accordingly.
Who Should Look Here
The Trails is often a dream home destination for those who have “earned it” and value uniqueness that’s tough to find in some of our other comparable neighborhoods. Neighbors range from professionals to families and a more mature demographic who have called the Trails home for decades.

WESTLAKE TRAILS FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
Most buyers expect Westlake Trails to feel like the rest of Westlake Village. It doesn’t. The winding streets, custom homes, and larger lots give it a character that’s much closer to a private enclave than a traditional subdivision.
Prices typically run $2M-$4M. The range is wide, lot size, architecture, and condition vary significantly, and a fully updated custom home commands a meaningful premium over one that needs work.
The custom character. Most neighborhoods at this price in Westlake Village still have a tract feel underneath the updates. Westlake Trails has genuine architectural variety. Homes range from 2,500 to 7,000 square feet and no two look quite the same.
Absolutely. Unlike most Westlake Village neighborhoods, there isn’t a dominant floor plan or architectural style. Touring Westlake Trails is less about comparing models and more about finding the specific home that fits your taste and lifestyle.
Custom to someone else’s taste can mean a significant remodel. Buyers need to separate the bones from the finishes when they tour. A well-positioned lot with a dated interior is a very different situation than a turnkey home with a poor layout. The range in what you’re actually getting is wider than most buyers expect.
Both offer large lots and a more private feel than central Westlake Village. Westlake Trails sits closer to the lake and the heart of town, while North Ranch leans more toward seclusion and the country club lifestyle. Buyers who want privacy and custom character without full North Ranch isolation often end up here.
Established professionals, long-term Westlake Village residents moving up, and buyers who’ve decided they want something that doesn’t look like everything else. It tends to attract people who know what they want and are willing to wait for it.
Maintenance. Homes and grounds at this scale take real commitment. Budget and time both. Buyers coming from lower-maintenance properties sometimes underestimate what it takes to keep a custom home in this neighborhood looking the way it should.
