Set within a gated, resort-style community, residents enjoy a sparkling pool and spa, fitness center, recreation room, and secured subterranean parking with two spaces and additional storage. The lush, park-like grounds are a standout feature, expansive green, and thoughtfully maintained, offering multiple areas to relax, unwind, or enjoy outdoor living just steps from your door. All of this, moments from the vibrant shops and dining along Ventura Blvd, with easy access to the 101 and 405 freeways.
