Newbury Park contains several distinct residential areas. Neighborhood names are not always used consistently in real estate listings, so buyers should rely on the exact property address, legal description, homeowners association documents, and governing jurisdiction rather than the neighborhood name alone.

Dos Vientos

Dos Vientos is a master-planned community located in southwestern Newbury Park near the Santa Monica Mountains. It includes single-family homes, townhomes, gated neighborhoods, parks, trails, schools, community facilities, and several homeowners associations. The community was developed in multiple phases, which means floor plans, lot sizes, association dues, gates, amenities, and ownership responsibilities differ from one neighborhood to another. Dos Vientos Community Park is a 28-acre facility with a community center and outdoor recreation areas. Dos Vientos Neighborhood Park provides views toward Boney Mountain and Sandstone Peak and is located near the Rancho Potrero Community Equestrian Center. The surrounding Dos Vientos Open Space covers more than 1,200 acres and connects with trails and natural areas near Rancho Sierra Vista/Satwiwa and Point Mugu State Park. This access can appeal to buyers who enjoy hiking, biking, horseback riding, or living near undeveloped land. Before buying in Dos Vientos, purchasers should review the specific association documents for the property. Some residences may belong to more than one association or have different community obligations. Buyers should also investigate wildfire exposure, wind conditions, insurance, landscaping requirements, local traffic patterns, and the distance from the home to Highway 101.

Central Newbury Park

Central Newbury Park includes many established residential neighborhoods near Borchard Road, Reino Road, Lynn Road, Wendy Drive, Kimber Drive, and surrounding streets. Housing includes traditional single-family homes, ranch-style residences, two-story suburban properties, townhomes, condominiums, and smaller planned developments. Homes were built during different periods and may range from largely original properties to extensively remodeled residences. Borchard Community Park is one of the area’s primary recreation facilities. The park and community center provide sports fields, courts, playgrounds, picnic areas, a skate park, and community programming. Central Newbury Park can offer convenient access to schools, shopping, parks, local services, the Newbury Park Library, and Highway 101. Buyers should consider traffic patterns, street noise, nearby commercial activity, property condition, and the quality and permitting of previous renovations.

Rancho Conejo

Rancho Conejo is located in northern Newbury Park near Rancho Conejo Boulevard, Ventu Park Road, Hillcrest Drive, and Highway 101. The area includes gated residential communities, traditional neighborhoods, townhomes, condominiums, business parks, and employment centers. Rancho Conejo Playfields is a 13-acre recreation facility with turf areas, softball fields, tennis and basketball courts, play areas, and picnic facilities. The location may appeal to buyers who want convenient access to Highway 101, Thousand Oaks, Camarillo, or nearby employment centers. Thousand Oaks Transit introduced Route 45 in 2026 to connect Newbury Park and Rancho Conejo and increase service in northern Newbury Park. Some Rancho Conejo homes are located within gated or association-governed communities. Buyers should review gate operations, visitor access, association finances, parking, recreational facilities, exterior-maintenance responsibilities, rental restrictions, and pending community projects.

Ventu Park and Casa Conejo

Ventu Park and Casa Conejo are commonly associated with the greater Newbury Park area, but some properties are located outside the Thousand Oaks city limits in unincorporated Ventura County. These areas include older single-family homes, custom properties, hillside residences, smaller lots, larger parcels, and houses that may have been expanded or modified over time. Jurisdiction is especially important in these neighborhoods. Buyers should verify whether the City of Thousand Oaks or Ventura County oversees zoning, permits, code enforcement, roads, utilities, and other public services for the specific property. Ventura County identifies Casa Conejo and Ventu Park separately from the City of Thousand Oaks within the county’s Second Supervisorial District. Older or custom homes in these areas may require careful investigation of additions, garage conversions, accessory structures, grading, drainage, retaining walls, septic or sewer connections, easements, private roads, and permit history.

Neighborhoods Near Wendy Drive and Old Conejo Road

The eastern side of Newbury Park includes established neighborhoods near Wendy Drive, Old Conejo Road, Reino Road, and the Highway 101 corridor. Homes may include single-story ranch properties, traditional suburban residences, townhomes, condominiums, and houses on cul-de-sacs or streets near open space. Wendy Park, Pepper Tree Playfield, Cypress Park, and other nearby recreation areas serve this part of Newbury Park. The Conejo Recreation and Park District maintains numerous parks and playfields throughout the community. Buyers should compare the convenience of freeway access with possible traffic and roadway noise. A home that is close to Highway 101 may provide an easier commute, while an interior or hillside street may offer a quieter setting but require more driving on local roads.

Condominiums and Townhomes

Newbury Park has condominium and townhome communities in central Newbury Park, Rancho Conejo, Dos Vientos, and other residential areas. Attached homes can appeal to first-time buyers, downsizing homeowners, or purchasers who prefer fewer exterior-maintenance responsibilities. Community features may include pools, spas, clubhouses, gates, landscaping, private streets, or recreational areas. The condition of the homeowners association is as important as the condition of the individual residence. Buyers should review the budget, reserve study, master insurance policy, meeting minutes, pending repairs, litigation, rental restrictions, pet rules, parking, maintenance responsibilities, and history of special assessments. Buyers should also determine whether the association’s insurance policy provides enough coverage for the buildings and what additional insurance the individual owner will need.

Hillside and Custom Homes

Custom and hillside properties can be found near the edges of Newbury Park and in neighborhoods overlooking the Conejo Valley or surrounding open space. These homes may provide views, larger lots, privacy, pools, guest areas, expanded garages, workshops, or distinctive architecture. However, greater complexity can also mean higher inspection and maintenance costs. A hillside buyer should investigate the foundation, retaining walls, slopes, grading, drainage, soil conditions, vegetation, emergency access, roof, irrigation, and insurance. A geological or structural evaluation may be appropriate when there are signs of soil movement, cracking, drainage problems, or substantial retaining systems.
