Waverly Heights
The Conejo Valley was once known for its large lots of land and ranching lifestyle. We love when a neighborhood like Waverly Heights keeps that nostalgia alive. The yards are open and wide designed to house a horse or two – if nothing else, that chicken coup you’ve always wanted.
Thousand Oaks | The Overview
Curious what it’s like to live in Thousand Oaks beyond this neighborhood? With a wide range of price points, school zones, and housing styles, each part of the city feels a little different. Here’s the full local breakdown.
Waverly Heights | Quick Take
Old-school ranch lot sizes with a walk to Starbucks, a combination you don’t often see in the Conejo Valley.
- Lifestyle: Even the furthest home here is an easy walk to the corner Starbucks and nearby shops, genuinely rare for a neighborhood built around wide open yards.
- Identity: These yards were built for a horse or two, or at least a chicken coop, keeping some of the Conejo Valley’s old ranching lifestyle alive in a way most newer neighborhoods don’t.
- Trade-off: Ranch-style extras like trailers show up on some streets, giving parts of the neighborhood a more rough-around-the-edges curb appeal that isn’t for everyone.
- Bottom line: A strong fit for buyers who want real outdoor space at a relatively affordable price, especially anyone who actually wants room for animals.

What's To Love
Location and walkability to nearby shops and coffee houses. It’s not very often we get to say this about our neighborhoods in the Conejo Valley. So when we do, it always makes the WTL list. Even the furthest house can take an easy walk to the corner Starbucks.
What's Not To Love
As always, a neighborhood with no HOA is a bit hit or miss. Fortunately, the streets are pretty well maintained here. But the added necessities of a ranch (trailers, etc.) create or more cultured curb appeal that isn’t for everyone.
Who Should Look Here
Ranch hands will love it here. If outdoor space is what you desire at a more affordable price, then Waverly Heights may be home for you.

People often assume a neighborhood built around wide, ranch-style yards won’t be walkable to anything, but even the furthest home here is an easy walk to the corner Starbucks and nearby shops.
Homes here typically run $1M-$2M. Lot size and how a specific yard has been used, some kept open, others more built out, tend to drive the range more than square footage alone.
